Things have flown by so fast this semester! A couple snow storms have messed up the semester calendar, but it just means that we’ve lost a few reading days and that exams have been shortened. Voice is going well and cheering is almost over, all thats left is the Women’s CAA tournament, a clinic and a few practices. Piano has fallen behind because of the snow, but I am doing my best to catch up and learn as much as possible. I love my classes this semester dispite the work load, but my hard work has been paying off. I got a 90 on my first MHS test and I have gotten 102′s on my listening qiuzzes, so as long as I do well on this paper coming up and keep studying the way I have I should do well in the class. Before Spring Break I went on a roadtrip with my mother, Gangee, and Grandaddy to Alabama to vist my uncle Ernie and my cousins Kevin and David. I hadn’t seen them since my senior year of high school so it was amazing to see them again. My cousins have grown so much since I last saw them! I love my family so much, so visiting them is important to me.
It is now Spring Break and I started my Spring Break by competing at NATS, a vocal competition. I drove down with Natalie late Thursday evening and we stayed at my uncle Mark’s house which was nice because it meant we could take our time getting ready on Friday. I didn’t stay to see the standings, because I didn’t compete to win,but to just get the experiance of competing. Friday, and Saturday was all about the CAA tournament. Mason didn’t play until Saturday but Friday Sean, Jake, Brian and I watched some of the Friday games and then I relaxed with Kelly, Megan, Cindy, and John at the hotel while Jake, Brian, and Sean went to Penny Lane. Saturday was all about Mason. We geared up for the game(I wore face paint!) and were ready to just support our awesome team. We dominated all of the game except for the last 4 minutes…..which cost us the game. Luckily though VCU lost the next day! Depsite our loss we all decided to have fun anyway. Saturday was awesome and when Sunday rolled around we all just relaxed and went to the Richmond zoo and then I came home. Now I am preparing for my mom’s knee replacement surgury on Wednesday so the rest of the Spring Break I will be helpng take care of her and help her recover from this much needed surgery. Off I go now to take my mom out and spend an evening with my parents =).
