no noise

So yesterday I lost my voice. Pretty bad too. I could talk raspily, couldn't sing, and it hurt to swallow. It was a mess. So today I put myself on total personal vocal rest until about from 8:00-2:30. And it just so happened that today was coop. So it was interesting. For French I just listened but for other classes I had to write stuff down. It was kinda cool actually, but it is soooo hard for me not to talk for more than 5 minutes. So I really struggled. My voice still hurts now, but you know. It's a whole heck of a lot better.

OH YA!! yesterday and the day before was Allie's birthday party! It was fabulous. I had a ton of fun! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALLY! Again. teehee. I have had two sleepovers in the past few days. So fun! :D

PFO retreat weekend was nothing short of FABULOUS! So much work being a secretary, but not as much as the teen exec or chairs. So I'm good. And I can finally announce to the public that I am priviledged to be secretary of the fabulous SILENT AUCTION COMMITTEE! Now this is where stuff gets interesting. If you guys or anyone you know, would be interested in donating some high value items, PLEASE CONTACT ME!!!! I mean ni ce stuff though. Not the junk you find in your closet that has been handed down twenty times. You will be such a help to PFO, and to the kids that we're working with.

Yesterday was my first CTC class of the year and it's going to be great. SUPER intensive though. I don't know how I'm going to juggle all the things in my life this year. I'm so busy, but I love it. Tomorrow was going to be voice, but I think we're cancelling since my voice still isn't in the prettiest shape. We'll see.

OH YEAH! And we're doing Halloween this year, and I know what I'm being! A FLAPPER!! All ready got the dress. It's going to be soooo fab!

So, I think that it's completely appropriate that I close with the new PFO cheer for my song! It's sort of a copying cheer. Hence the parenthesis! :D

"I said a-PFO! (I said a-PFO!)
I said a-PFO! (I said a-PFO)
I said a-chilling with our buddies and a-making love grow! (I said a-chilling with our buddies and a-making love grow!)
Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!)
Make that change! (Make that change!)
I said a-PFO! (I said a-PFO)
I said a-PFO (I said a-PFO!)
I said a-working on committees, on a journey we'll go! (I said a-working on committees, on a journey we'll go!)
OOOOOOOH!!!
Make that change, PFO! Make that change, PFO! Make that change, PFO! Make that change, PFO!!! WOOOO!"

I am so happy! As you may all ready know, I love to be busy. I can't stand not doing anything. And school does NOT count as doing something!! And I haven't been busy at all lately, so I'm just kinda...bored. But this week, my life starts up again! Coop, the PFO RETREAT!!! birthdays,  Sleepover with my BFF Caroline (Cherry Berry! Stay posted for picturess!), church, birthday parties, my CTC CLASS!!! more birthdays, and voice lessons, and  Aaaah! My fabulously busy life. I love it!

Happy belated birthday, Mommy!! and my brother and sister's are later in the month. Then my friend Sarah's. So yesterday I went out and spent allll my money. But it was worth it! I also bought myself some new shortsss. Good stuffs! :) Last night I watched Dreamgirls for the first time. Yes, the first time. All you CTC kids, don't judge. lolsauce. I liked it. Some pretty incredible singing.

"Oh oh oh, woke up today. Feeling the way I always do. Oh oh oh, hungry for somethingthat I can't eat. Then I hear that beat. That rhythm of town starts calling me down. It's like a message from high above. Oh oh oh, pulling me out to the smiles and the streets that I love!"
