UGH I'M LIKE THE CRYPT KEEPER!

Went to HP last night. It was amazing. Pretty dark, but I loved it. I didn't really have any complaints this time, but that's probably because I didn't read the 7th book right before I watched the movie to compare. And it was friggin hilarious to sit next to Lacey. Whenever a creepy part would come she kept turning to me, 'What's going to happen? Is it gonna scare me? SHALESE JUST TELL ME WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN!!' Heeheehee.

It's my last night as a teenager tonight. I don't really know how I feel about that. Still. I mean, it's cool I'm getting older and I won't be subject to teenager jokes anymore. But, I'm OLD, (like the way Jamie Lee Curtis says it). The next thing I'll know, I'll be white-haired and arthritic, racing other grandmas down the hallway of the nursing home. That's a happy thought . . .

I Heart Muggles

Staying up late again to study for a stupid test. But, it's all ok because I got to see HARRY POTTER and the DEATHLY HALLOWS pt1 tonight before midnight baby! And yes, it was pretty much amazing. I mean, I was never one for the HP movies because I'm a big believer in the books and the movies never ever get it right. But, this movie was awesome and I loved it and I can't believe I have to wait another stinking year to see the last bit. Yes, I know, I've read the books and I know what happens, but I gotta see how they do it!
I don't understand those people out there who refuse to read the books. Those people also happen to think that people like me are uber nerds. Hey, I grew up on these books. I introduced them to my family and turned them into HP lovers too. And yes, I am going to make a shirt that says I <3 snogging because I'm awesome like that. Deal with it.

the jsb smells like vomit . . .

I feel like a narcissist writing blog entries every day. It's like I think my life is super important and exciting, so I put it out there for everyone to read so that they know how awesome I am. Except for the fact that I'm going to see Harry Potter 7 tomorrow, my life has no exciting-ness to it. Needless to say, I will be more than relieved when I don't have to do journal entries for my class anymore.
Right now, I'm super stressed about school. Mostly. I have a crap-load of tests, quizzes, and other ginormous projects to accomplish just within the last two days of this week. And what am I doing right now instead of studying STATS or writing my Art History paper? Rambling about myself. I'm so awesome.
Yes, I realize I have been such a Debbie Downer lately. I'm sorry for that. Maybe it's the cold . . . except I like winter and don't really mind the cold. Maybe it's the fact that for the past week the JSB has smelled like vomit. Or maybe it's even that I'm growing up and I'm subconsciously trying to avoid that since grown-ups are so boring . . . that's probably it.

Peter Pan, where are you?

So it's my last week of being a teenager. Crazy, I know. I'm not sure how I really feel about it. I mean, I'll love it when my family can't dig at me because I'm not a teenager anymore, but that also means that I have to grow up even more and make grown up decisions. I haven't been doing very good at that lately. . .
It's crazy thinking that I only really have one major decision left to make. Who to marry? You have no idea how much that terrifies me. I'm just a little kid and the next major step in my life is to get married?! Where did my childhood go? I want to go back to the days when I could play Lion King or watch the Parent Trap all day with Jill. I didn't used to have to worry about work, paying for rent, or how to turn that really creepy guy in my class down. I didn't track my days by when my assignments are due or when I have to take a test. If I accidentally slept in, I could always count on Mom to wake me up and get me to school. I could dance whenever I wanted.
Blast growing up!

Today

Will you sing with me?
I'm just singing in the rain.
I've craved it all day . . .

I found my yellow umbrella and finally got to use it today. I've had the urge to watch Singing In the Rain all day long. That might be due to the fact that my friend has never seen it and I need to de-virginize him or it might be because I listened to Moses on my way to class this morning. Either way, it's one of the greatest musicals ever and if you've never seen it . . . you need to de-virginize yourself too.

Sunday

Baby girl Pete was born last night!!! My sister-in-law had to go through a rough C-section to get her out and baby girl had to spend a few hours in the NICU for breathing problems, but she's perfectly healthy and beautiful now.

Big brother wasn't too sure about her. He still thought she was hiding in mommy's belly or under the sheets, but I think they are going to be best friends. She'll have him wrapped around her little finger just like she already has her daddy.

Saturday

This weekend I competed in DanceSport, a ballroom competition for all of the BYU ballroom classes, high schools, and professionals. I competed in the beginning level of Quickstep on Friday and Waltz on Saturday. We kicked some serious trash on Friday. My partner and I made it to the quarterfinals and were the only couple in our class to make it that far. We didn't fare as well today. Granted we competed up a level, but my partner was seriously disappointed. You'd think that since I'm the dancer, I'd be more mad about it than him, but I was proud of us. I went back later than night to watch the professionals compete and it was seriously one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I mean, I've watched Dancing With the Stars with my parents all the time, but it's so much better watching it live. It also made me really miss competing and dancing seriously. My beginner level classes here are just not cutting it. I know I sound like a broken record and I need to stop complaining . . .
