The Happiest Place on Earth is Only 11 Hours Away

To Disneyland we go! The orchestra and ACapella from our school went for 5 days to California, namely Disneyland. It was amazing, and a technical nightmare. Can you imagine truckin 150+ teenagers to Disnseyland??





This poor gas station. 150+ kids storming in to use the bathroom is not a pretty sight.

Our hotel had palm trees growing in it!!!




Screamin' California.






This is from the World of Color, a water show that Disney does almost every night.

We went to the aquarium in Long Beach...and I got to touch a SHARK!!!!



Unfortunately, my camera died on our last day at Disney. So..this is all I got, unless someone knows how to take pictures off facebook and put them on a blog!!

Life

Well, I am just sitting here on my couch, next to Joseph, who is reading a book that looks absolutely engrossing. What do I want to talk about...lets talk about life. Everyone has one. You can have a social life or an academic life or just be living. What kind of life do you have??

My life is a hectic one. With school, track, scholarships, stressing over college, reading, getting ready for tour, having a social life, and hanging out with my family, I think that it is safe to say that I have a pretty hectic schedule. BUT, I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm having way too much fun to drop anything now, of all times. Life is just getting interesting. I'm getting ready to move out and to go to college. I'm kind of freaking out. I only have less than a semester left in my college experience, and today was the 100th day of school. Yikes! Only 80 days left...

Well, this is shaping up to be a rather interesting blog post. I'm rambling. It doesn't usually happen...much.



Ok, Ok, so somethimes I do ramble, just the teensyist bit. I just have so much to say, and my hands can't keep up with my brain. I think that rambling is good for the soul. It lets you write about whatever, and if someone doesn't want to read it, then fine, they won't. Blogs are a wonderful thing.
