Most nights writing the paper scared me out of my wits, and made me happy that I know karate. teehee! I do have to apologize to everyone for being away for so long. I am back now, or for how ever long my life allows me to be. School is going great, and I am likeing that way it has been going the past couple of weeks. I got a 4.0 GPA on my 2nd term grades!! Woot woot! So far I have a 3.95 (one -A!! One!!) and a 4.0! Makes me happy.
I will be leaving for state Basketball soon! I am really excited! I am playing in the pep band (hahah yeah I know that I am a nerd :D At least I can say that I play percussion)I am so excited!!! It is going to be a blast!!
Well nothing much else is going on in my life execpt for the fact that my mom is preggers with the 7th and final memebr of our extention of the Jefferies Family!! We are excited and hoping that this last one might be the girl that my mom and I have waited for for at least 15-16 years!

Wow, a lot to write
Well, maybe a TON to write...
The school year is coming to a close and I am thinking about my math grade which could be better. I am thinking about all of the things that have been thrown on us at the end of the year. I am thinking about the closing program for my graduation.
There, as you can see, is a lot that I am thinking about.
For the closing program for school, the 9th grade is being taught a dance that we have to perform for our parents and everyone else. I was put at the very end of the line when we were lining up to be placed with the guys. Now let me tell you that this was no ordinary line, this was a height line. You had to line up according to your height. The girl in front of me was taller by 1/32 of an inch! We were so close in height that we are almost the exact same size. She took the spot in front of me so that I was the last one. We were paired off, and I ended up with a boy that I really didn't mind at all. He is pretty cool. We were about ready to start, and he decided that he didn't want to dance any more. I was then placed with a boy that I had REALLY hoped that I could avoid getting paired with him. I know it sounds EXTREMELY mean of me, but he doesn't even want to do this, and he texts the whole time we are practicing. I wouldn't mind being with him if he enjoyed it.
We are set up in a diamond formation. Two corner couples, one front couple and a back couple. Well the supposed to be diamond I am in only has me with my partner. No one else. So when we are practicing, I have to practice with my partner, and when we switch places, I am doing it all by myself, and so is he. The dance teacher says that when we learn the whole dance, and get ready to be split up into the 3 different sections, (we are doing the dance 3 different times, so that every one has a chance to dance, and so we aren't all crowded on the floor.) we will have a whole diamond. We have a few more days of this until we are done! WOOHOO!!! :)
At school we did a little program for the school, and instead of singing Ye Shall Have A Song, we sang Big Spender from Sweet Charity. We had tons of fun with it. No one but the girls chorus and 2 teachers knew about it. We dressed in short shorts or skirts and legging. Some of us wore fish nets. I wore hot pink legging, and black fish nets over the leggings. I wore short shorts with it and high heel thingys. We had so much fun shocking the teachers and students. We had one of our teachers wear a suit, and come suantering down the stairs. He was our Big Spender. One of the girls had him sit down at a little table and poured him a glass of Diet Coke. We then sang the song, and at the end, I was choosen to go up and put my hand on his shoulder and say out loud, "Hows about it... palz?" We had SO MUCH FUN doing it!!! (now let me tell you. This is a very condenced version of this.)
I have been lazy in my posting lately! Sorry!
For spring break awhile ago, I went to Oregon with my granparents and spent a whole week with them and my aunt, uncle, and cousins. It was my first time seeing the ocean, and I was so amazed at the size of it! BREATH TAKING!!! It went on forever! We watched a storm brewing over the Pacific. It was the most amazing thing I have seen in my life. We also took a hike to a suspension bridge. It had a waterfall off to the side and it was wonderful! Before we came into Portland and Oregon City, we stopped at Multnomah Falls. It was really pretty! One huge waterfall and a smaller one below it. We took a lot of pictures. I don't have enough room to put all of the pictures we took up, but I will put some!
I will put them in the post under this one :)

Halloween
Yep Halloween is coming up soon and my friend and I are excited! :) We are going to be goth/punk fairies. Don't ask us how we came up with the idea, we just did. Maybe it is because I have some WICKED fairy wings, maybe not. Our school might have a dance, but I don't think so. Tomorrow we are doing battle of the classes, and having some Halloween fun. Plus a bonus! We have a half day!!!! :) So cool!
Well I hope that your Halloweens are fun and spooky :) And that you guys are all safe as you go Trick-or-Treating! If some of you do go :) Some of you guys might just hand out the candy, and we Trick-or-Treaters love you for that!

God has blessed me with firends
Today in school I was in math class and I was just sitting there when all of the sudden, my friend Mia turns around and puts my calculator cover into my cup. (We can buy cups for 5 cents and we can then get drinks in class without having to leave.) But in doing so she put a huge slice into the side of it. I looked up at her and did my funny raise one eyebrow thing at her. She blushed, looked at the cup and said sorry. She then said that I should fill it up to see if it would still hold water. I looked at the slice and saw that it was long, more then it was wide so I did. It held the water just fine so I was pleased and returned back to my seat.
However, when I was walking back to my desk, it started spilling out of the crack and going all over the place. I looked up at Mia in shock and she just laughed. I walked by her and nodded my head and said sarcastically, "Yeah... it will still hold water." She tried to grab the cup from my hands to get a drink but I pulled it back.
As I was gulping it down, so that the front of my shirt would not get any more wet for the cascade of water running down that side of it, she decided to push that cup up and make me choke on the water. I pulled the cup away from my face a coughed getting Mia wet in the process. She squeaked and that made the teacher look up at the both of us and say, "Any one caught throwing water in my class, all that are involved will get U's." I went pale white and sat back down too scared to defend us. I looked at Mia and almost cried! I could not get a U!!!!!! Number one because I have NEVER had a U, and secondly I would be kicked off Honor Society. I didn't want that! Mia just sighed looked at me and said that it was more of a warning then anything. She said that at least we were not mad at each other and that that was all that counted.
That got me thinking... I learned a great lesson today. I learned that good friends are always going to be with you and stand through the thick and thin in life :) They are going to stand by your side in trouble and say, Man we screwed up, but gosh we had fun :) I am thankful that God gave me friends :) Even though they ruin my cup and get me and them all wet, I still love them

9-11
Today at school, before we went to our 1st period, we went outside and listened to our Principal talk about 9-11. He talked about he sacrifices that those people made. He talked about people in the past that have given there lives to save others. Then two of our teachers raised the flag then took it back down to half staff. We watched in silence then we said the Pledge of Allegiance. My friend Played taps before we went inside. It was a very cool thing to do.
When I went to Seminary, my teacher talked about 9-11 also. He told us that he thought that after 9-11 it seemed our country came together more closely. I agree with him fully. He told us that one of the Prophets said that the most important word in the dictionary, is remember. We should never forget. He was on his mission in Taiwan at the time and people there watched the tragic thing too.
Any way I felt that I should write about this experience. I hope that we all have a heart full of love for those who are remembering loved ones, and I hope we all have a prayer in our hearts too.

Well... I'm still alive :)
School has been alright. I am into the 2nd week, and doing just fine. I enjoy being the big bad kids in school now :) the little ones are afraid of us. hehehehe I think so far that seminary is the best class. My teacher is up-beat and energetic. He makes learning about the gospel fun :) He is really cool to be around. I also have two really WEIRD teachers they are REALLY hyper and loud and all over the place I brace myself every time I go into their classes. It is really weird to go from Seminary to go to my L.A. class because one is quiet and spiritual the other class has a crazy teacher that is SOOOOO hyper :)
I am not involved in any sports so far, but come May I am going to try out for softball. I would do other sports but I missed volleyball (dang it!!!) and I can't play basketball, so that leaves wrestling... NOPE!!! We might be able to put a soccer team together so I might do that.
School is still kind of taking off so we haven't done anything big. Which I am just fine with. :)
Any way I am sure there are more updates to come soon :)

Am I ready? I dont't think so...
School starts on the 19th and I am not ready for it to begin again. I want summer to last at least one more week :P But I know that it is not possible. It just means that sense we are starting earlier, we will get out for summer earlier again.
I will post after my first day of school and tell you how it was.

School is out and Marching band is in...
School got out on May 23rd. So that is my excuse for not writing on my blog or writing my story.....it as been really busy. The last day of school was fun, I got to hang out with my friends and part all night!!!! Ok... maybe not all night :)
Marching band has been fun... when I am not banging my fingers on the rim of the drum... owe!!!!! I play the violin, but it is not a Marching Band instrument, so they stuck me on the smallest bass drum. The bass drum is still too big and it hurts my back like crazy!!! It makes me feel like I am pregnant. Or at least I think so :) The uniform is black and yellow. It is the high school colors, and the uniform is heavy plus marching in black is not my idea of fun, it will be a killer to march in. AND having the bass drum on my chest isn't going to help. Our first parade is this Saturday the 7th. We've only had a week to work on the song we sound pretty good, but having been on the drum for only a week is well... I am going to suck and mess up cadence just to put it to you straight :) teehee I will try not to mess up.
I will put a picture of me in my uniform up later tonight

School is fun...
I am here in 3rd hour doing nothing, because I am done with my Core Test. Life has been good and I am doing well. We have about 16 days of school left to go!!! I can't wait until we are done with the school year.
I have started a new book. All of my friends have told me to read it so I have. I LOVE it! It is called the Ranger's Apprentice by John Flanagan. I am almost done with the first one, and can't wait to read the second one. All seven of them are written, but only 4 are out in the United States. In fact two of my friends are sitting next to me reading the 4th one right now... I should be reading too, but I wanted to take a break and write on my blog that I keep forgetting to write on. teehee :)
