So I'm in PFO's big end of year show. It's called There's a Monster in my Closet, it's kid friendly, and tickets are only TEN BUCKS! It's a hilarious fun-loving musical about a girl named Emily and her best friend Stephanie discover that here is a monster living in her closet. They set out to catch the monster but instead capture the king of the dream world! This wacky musical is sure to bring a smile to everyone and anyone's faces with it's jazzy music and awesome dancing. Come see it! Details at http://www.playingforothers.org/

"Just call me Mrs. Funkify, I like to shake mah booty. I'll shake it to the left and then I'll shake it to the right!
Hey now girl, it's plain to see you got yourself a cutie!
You're one outrageous funky beast!
A closet Socialite! I got my groove on
(I got my groove on)

Seussical: The Musical!

I had an incredible weekend! On Friday I went to the PFO Halloween party. Here's me and my sis in our costumes. She was from the 80's and I was a 1920's flapper! :D

It was a ton of fun! Saturday me and Becca got to hang out wiht Erika and we had a PFO teen board meeting. It was great. And then Sunday, I got to meet my buddy! She is soo sweet. Her name is Molly, and she is the best!

That's basically my weekend. It was a good one!

"But the fact is everything today is thoroughly modern. Bands are getting jazzier. Everything today makes yesterday slow. Cars are getting snazzier. Men say it's criminal what women'll do. What they're forgetting is this is 1922!"

YA-YAY-UH!

Goood day. Just saying. The girl in the coop, Maddy, came back from the beach this week and she's awesome. Love ya, girly!

Fabric painted leggings for Becca's halloween costume with her. Mine is all ready. I even tried it on and such and it's fabulous. It's just too cool. :D And tonight is VEGAS WEEK on So You Think You Can Dance!! What!?!?! I'm a little excited. My life has been so busy and it's been so hard keeping up with school work. Soemtimes it gets so frustrating. Biology is fine, but as you saw in the last post, geometry is SUCH a time consumement. But I'll live! Friday is the PFO costume tricks and treats party. I am sooo excited. Saturday is a teen board meeting, and sunday I get to meet my buddy! I can't wait. She seems like the sweetest little thing EVER! I just can't wait!! :D :D :D :D :D

Random song that JUST got stuck in my head.

"Popular. You're gonna be popular. I'll teach you the proper ploys when you talk to boys. little ways to flirt and flounce. OOH! I'll show what shoes to wear, how to fix your hair. Everything that really counts, to be popular. I'll help you be popular. You'll hang with the right cohorts, you'll be good at sports. Know the slang you've got to know! So let's start cause you have an awfully long way to go!"

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!"
~2009-10 PFO cheer

Happy, happy, happy!!

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!

Gooooood daaaay

Had a great time yesterday for the part of the church picnic that I could actually go to. But it was okay leaving because the PFO meeting was INCREDIBLE! Unfortunately, I can't tell you anything about it. It's Top Secret! Ssssshhhh!! Wish I could. :)

"I'm just a someone in an old museum. Far away from home as someone can go. But the beauty is I still meet people I know. Hello! This is wanting something. This is reaching for it. This is wishing that a moment would arrive. This taking chances. This is almost touching, what the beauty is."
