So, over this past weekend (Feb 22-24) my church’s youth choir participated in a cool thing at Baylor University called YouthCue. It was basically a thing where our choir and bout 7 others have been working on some music for about the last 4-6 months, and we all came together at Baylor this past weekend for a festival thing. I think there was about 300 people there, and it was really cool getting to hear the music with all those voices. The Baylor Orchestra played along with us. It was a really cool thing. Unfortunately, I had to leave before the final concert because our choir leaders thought i had gotten the flu because my whole family has it, but i didn’t. It was still fun going, and it was a really cool experience. I hope to go again next year, and I hope I don’t have to come home early again!
So, I came home today to my family’s washing machine being broken. I really needed a few things washed, but my mom had already made her trip to a friend’s house to wash. I remembered seeing a cool story on Night Line who lived green for a year. This included washing his clothes WITHOUT a washing machine. He had a cool idea of bathtub-washing, and it looked effective, so I thought I’d try it. A quick Google search and a few wet clothing pieces later, I now find my hands with a neat smell of Joyful Expressions! and my few peices of clothing drying in the tub. It was a cool, simple idea to a not-so-big problem. I feel like I’ve gained a new life skill that may come in handy later in my college days.
I have to admit that I will be glad when my dad does get around to taking the washing machine to be fixed!
so, it’s been awhile since i have posted (what a surprise)..i don’t seem to update very well..a lot has been going on lately.
first, our soccer team is AMAZING. i’m not aware of any district game that we have lost this year, and we don’t intend on doing it any time soon. the boys soccer team is doing quite good this year, too..
school is nearing a a halt (aka Christmas break), so that means that finals are this week..fortunately, my tests are pretty well spread out, and we will be getting out at one everyday, so thats all cool..with the arrival of Christmas break comes Christmas madness. i still haven’t bought many presents for friends yet, but i know it’ll get done sooner or later. our sunday school group is going wednesday to drop off the presents we bought for our family we adopted this Christmas, so that should be fun.
between various Christmas parties, stressful tests, the onsight of fireworks, gifts, time with friends, Christmas Sunday, work, soccer practice, and other activities this holiday season, the break should be extremely worth-while and for the most part unproductive..just the way i like it..
So, sorry for the lack of posts..I’m not sure if anyone even visits this site much, but all the same, sorry..
Some exciting news!! I have added a new page to the site!! Woo-hoo!! It’s noting much..it’s just a collection of some videos that I have made in the past..there’s only one video, but expect more!! It is from my recent trip to Guatemala..the quality is not exactly what I would have hoped for, but you can still see what’s going on..anyways, you can get to it from your right or somewhere above this post..click Video Archives..ok, thanks!
So, I just might be the most excited person to know that David Beckham is coming to America..it may sounds cheesy, but he truly is one of my “idols”..I’ll never be good enough to play professionally, but I sure can work off for it, can’t I..
Here is a really cool video/commercial of Becks for Adidas..I hope you enjoy..I did..
So, I don’t know if anyone here likes Harry Potter, but I do so I am here to post that the book cover for latest installment of the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows, has been released!!! If you don’t know, this is a big deal. This is the last book of the Harry Potter series, so it is kinda a big deal. Anyways, here is a link to it!!
(No one will read this, but here is a post anyways..)
WooHoo!! Rachel finally changed everything!
I had some spare time on my hands, so I decided to make some changes. The theme is Sandy, Sandy, Sandy, but I thought it had a “cool” layout…I have put a list of books up to your right that I am reading (If I am reading something, then maybe you should, too…). There also some other misc stuff that is on here right now. I’ll be adding more later, and changing these unsightly colors. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
