So i was watching a recorded American Idol after school today and i loved this preformance. I closed my eyes- and all of a sudden when Jason started to sing, i felt this presence of someone reaching their hand out to it. I slowly brought my hand out and (i guess i will name the presence it) It pulled me up off the couch and i started dancing(ballroom style) around the room i was in.( i don't know which room it is) Now, i know it sounds cheesy but it was cool. I only wish i knew who i was dancing with. I think it was on of my family members who have passed. Either my Uncle Dick or Auntie K.K. its hard to say who it was. But after the song was over i was just like wow! thats cool. So heres the video. I wanted to share that with ya'll and heres the video! If your just wanting to watch him sing....he starts singing at like 1:49
Today is TAKE YOUR CHILD TO WORK DAY!
So many High schoolers stayed home and did nothing. Why did i not do that? On my was to 6th period i went to go say hi to Mr.Gray and his kids Riley and Joe, So they came with me to my 6th period class (ASL). It was kinda cool. They might have been a little bored though... Then before the bell rang i walked them back to their dad and Mr.Gray gave me a ride home. That was very nice of him.
O0o0o0o0o- If i have not mentioned it yet. I DROVE MY DADS STICK SHIFT THE OTHER DAY! YAY ME!!!!!!! its really easy shifting while your driving, i just have a hard time starting it. So thats about it. um yeah.
Tomorrow i leave for PASCO,WA- oh joy! 4 hour bus ride! It is our last choir competition and we are taking all the choirs. so we will probally have 2 BIG charter buses. It will be a lot of fun with everyone.
The past few nights i have been thinking about the Seniors in our choir, and how sad I will be to see them go. I have not come close with every one of them, but their still apart of our choir and i have a feeling that next year something will be missing. There are so many GREAT seniors who have GREAT voices and know what they are talking about. So if any of you are reading this...I will miss you all bunches!
Thats all for today- or now...
Love,
Amanda
PS-

read what ever you choose, THERES A LOT!
So a lot has gone on lately on the past few weeks, I just never felt like getting on the blog and typing, i wrote it down in my "diary"/notebook instead. I will grab it and write what i wrote.
TODAY~
I was VERY TIRED. But i made it through the school day. It was really cold so my dad picked me up at the bus stop and and we went to Stevens school to drop off a jacket for track, because he did not have one. After that we went to the mini mart and i got a DR.Pepper for me, a MT.DEW for steven and a bag of sour cream and onion chips. Then we left to go see my Uncle Chuck. He lives in a retirement home, he has alz timers. I pray to god that he will stay by his side, keep him healthy and be his guidance. I was really bummed because we did not get to see him because he is on this new medication and apparently he is really sleepy. So yeah. after we figured that out, we went to dinner (Steven,Dad and I) at SWEET TOMATOS. It was YUMMY. I ate pretty healthy too. the only thing i did not enjoy was watching my brother eat. OMG he is like a dinosaur! RAWR!
BRB i gotta get my glasses......My eyes hurt with out them. BRB~
IM BACK! okiedokie
Um recently like this weekend, I DROVE MY DADS STICK SHIFT. I don't know how many times i cried with fustration. GRRrrr...But i actually got it, I rolled around in the parking lot. Its really easy to shift while im driving but starting it is hard for me. I saw the movie HORTON HEARS A WHO. That is the cutest movie ever. They did a good job. My favorite quote is.........
"A person's a person no matter how small"
I hung out with Savannah and Maddie for a bit. That was fun- we watched a random movie called Black Sheep. It was in WA. cool huh? not really.
The weather here has been so awkward! we went from 80 degree weather to light rain, heavy rain, hail, some light thin snow, more rain....i don't like it here. and its been FREEZING TOO! well i am very cold all the time but seriously! Its cold here!
I am learning(teaching myself) how to play "The Office" theme song. I almost got it. THe transition to repeat it is tricky for me. I learned it on youtube. gotta love it! lol-
okay now to the more past-ish.
I was stressed a while ago and here is what was bugging me:
Entry 1-
~When i was driving i kept making mistakes...My mom was grouchy (before i was driving) because our neighbors cat, Lincon goes into our garage and like to leave his "mark." Its been going good for a while, the only reason my parents get mad is because we have furniture in there...so my mom got mad, and she sorta ticked me off because she was "Over reacting" and acting silly.
~At the blazer game we left early but i wanted to stay longer. My dad said in about the 3rd quarter we will leave about 4 minutes until the game is finished...They are going to lose anyway. I disliked the comment because you should never give faith, hope or your drive to complete a task. Its always good to stay positive!!
~I always want to cuss, sometimes i do, but not loudly, pretty much in a wisper to myself. And i don't like it. But i hear it so much its almost natural.
~There is a girl in choir who annoys me, ( i will not mention the name) .I did not mind her before, but her characteristics are so BIG and EXTREME! When i listen to the choir recordings from last year i can pick out her voice in every song. Its annoying, now its hard for me to enjoy the song. lol-
Entry 2-
~Sometimes i feel like i don't have any friends, well i do, they are just really good friends! and mostly all my other friends i know are "good friends/aquantices".
~I was babysitting for my neighbors while there was a poker party, i was wathing Riley, Joe, Garin, Carley and her friend(5 kids) We played kick ball joe cried twice, the first time was becuse he was fusterated the second time carlys friend(sarah) was rude to him. Riley got hit by a door that swung back and hit her in the arm. That left a big mark. She cried. When Brenda (Garins mom) came to pick up Garin my mom was with her. SHe was not too happy about hte kids running around. And she wanted to make sure i knew where they were and stuff like that. She pretty much implied that i was not responsible . That made me feel really bad. So i apoligized to Brenda she said "it was fine"/ I am guessing she was not happy about it. When Jim and Karla got home i apoligized to them. I felt bad. Jim's response was "Its okay honey we trust you." the comment was nice but i still felt bad. Then Karla got home and said it was okay too. She was more worried about Joe running around. When i went to bed that night i sorta had a small feeling that i was not real. I fell asleep to my music. I was stressed about our comprehension test on the book Tings Fall Apart. but i did okay. I am not good at comprehending books that i have to read for school for some reason.
OKAY WOW!!!! I have typed bunches. should i stop and post another entry later? nah. i'll keep going, you can read what you feel like.
Entry 2 cont-
What was bugging me,
*School project in english
*What my mom said when i was babysitting
*Maybe the WASL got to me?
*not feeling real
*Test on Things Fall Apart
So i took my dog for a walk and i called my old neighbor Jeanene. It was nice to talk to her. Then she said its good to pray! and even though i don't want to tell my mom. So i did. I don't think she was happy that i went ot Jeanene first....But she got over it. lol- and i asked her if she ever had something that was bugging her and not tell her mom- and she said she did nto have a good relationship with her, so that ruins my scenario.
I CANT WAIT UNTIL SUMMER!!!!!
I get to go to Texas, i don't know the dates yet....
CHEER CAMP is at UNIVERSITY OF OREGON!!! OH YEAh!! and its the day after my brithday.
OH MY GOSH! I'm a Junior next year. WOW!
Cheer tryouts are coming up soon. YAY! i am excited but nervous. I am hoping to get on VARSITY> I will have to work really hard. I CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
GOODNIGHT!
LOVE Ya'll
