I don't think that I can describe today with just one word. it was funny, with a dash of sickness, and a little optimism. My "friend" John Ah Mu (yes you may notice the "" marks, and there is a story, but i don't really want to talk about it today. and i could take up a lot of space even if i just talk about him. so I'm not going to right now.) is Samoan, half or fourth I'm not sure. Well it is missionary week in seminary, and to get 5 points you have to wear church appropriate dress. And John showed so much courage and confidence today. He wore a "man skirt". I'm not sure what it is called in Samoa, but it was sure funny. Sometimes that kid just makes me laugh like none other. People in Samoa wear that kind of church dress, and John wanted to show it off. But to tell you the truth i couldn't take him serious while he was wearing it. While walking to our lockers everyone was staring at him, some were laughing, some were pointing. But did john become self conscious? No way. I was astonished by the confidence he had.



Winter. I love it. the smells of fresh baked bread, the music, the family time, and the hot chocolate running down your throat. I absolutely love it. But there is one thing about the winter time that kills me. being sick. this is common occurrence at my house with my family. and i hate it. so much. I think i have been sick a total of ten times this winter. and I am sick right now, and it is killing me slowly. My parent still make me go to school, and i try to plaster on a smile for it. But it doesn't really work out for me, considering i walk up to get a tissue about every 3 minutes.

Piano. I hate it, but secretly i love it. I hate it when i have to practice stupid songs that i don't like out of a stupid piano book. I love it when i find some really cool song that i enjoy playing. but i usually don't. So i had piano lessons today, and i had to tell my teacher the truth, the fact that i didn't practice once that week. I don't think that she was surprised or disappointed, because sometimes it is a regular thing for me. but today a spark went off in my head. and i am somewhat excited for practicing........

Hello Blog (:

So I'm writing this blog. I wouldn't say it is for fun. Probably because I don't really write in a journal or diary everyday, and maybe i can just count this. I live in Utah, a state everybody hates except for myself. I personally love Utah, and wouldn't change anything about it. This IS the place. Yes. I am a sheltered child. And i love it. I live in a great neighborhood, where there are great people, and not that much to talk about. There isn't that much excitement, unless somebody new moves in. And sometimes i have to feel bad for the newcomers, because they are bombarded with brownies and jell-Os's of all kinds. I go to a Jr. High filled with gossip and trends. I don't really enjoy school, but I like to learn. If i didn't have to learn in an environment that smelled like B.O. and old grouchy teachers, then maybe i would like going just a little bit more. One thing that i hate is math, I'm good at it, and i can understand it quickly but i personally hate it. All of my previous math teachers have expressed that you use math in your everyday life. But I find no need for it until you are a parent and have to teach your children, and they will grow up and teach their children. It is just a never-ending circle of equations and triangles. If it wasn't for the social part of school, i think i would go absolutely insane. I love those five minutes between class when you bump into a friend and talk for a few short minutes that pass way to quickly. Our school only has lunch for 25 minutes, which i think is absolutely ridiculous. If you buy a lunch at school you are usually in line for about 10-15 minutes, and then you have to shove down your food while having some sort of social life in 10 minutes. Since im talking about school i may want to do my homework.....
