IT"S UEA!!! I love UEA. I have got to sleep in for 3 days in a row! And I've hung out with my friends and my parents a lot. It's been a ton of fun! On thursday my mom took me shopping all over for a stupid outfit for choir. And we're still not finished with it! We can't find a long sleeved white shirt that goes all that way to your wrists. Guess that's not really the style. 3/4 sleeves is what's stylish right now apparently. So anyway, my mom is going to take Elise and I to go look for one. (Elise is in choir too and she can't find a shirt either.)
So at the mall on thursday I got these awesome boots! They look like mocassins and they're a really pretty carmel color. They're really comfortable too. They feel like slippers kind of.
So I think I'm becoming more and more obsessed with the guy I like. I'll probably not have a crush him next week, knowing me, but at the moment I do. He's so funny and nice. And he actually talks to me! I feel so special when he does. Lol. I know it sounds stupid, but it's true.
Right now I'm reading a book called The Yearbook. It's LDS literature, so of course it's really good. Anyway, this named Michaela likes this guy, Ethan. And they've known each other for forever. So she really likes him. And they're in the same english class. Their teacher gives them an assignment of an autobiography, and they have to start clear back from the first thing they remember. Well, Michaela was reading Ethan's paper right before he turned his in. And it started off talking about kindergarten. He said that there was this really cute in his kindergarten class named Michaela. She had just read that when he took it back from her and told her that there was personal stuff in there (while turning bright red.) So after class started, he leaned forward and whispered in her ear that he still thought she was really cute. AAAH!!! How awesome is that? Anyway, I reccommend this book to everyone! It's good so far and I'm only on page 32 or something. Ya, it's so cute. Wouldn't that be so amazing if that actually happened to you?
Well, Shanna was over last night cuz I was home alone and I like to hang out with people when I'm alone at night. Or else I get freaked out sometimes. So anyway, we made english muffin pizzas and garlic bread. It was so delicious! Then we played the guitar for a long time. It was way fun. We figured out how to play Love Story by Taylor Swift, Just a Dream by Carrie Underwood, and This is Me by Demi Lovato. It was a blast!
A couple days ago I wrote a song called Who I Am. It's about finding out who you really are. I was actually tracing myself on my mirror with a dry erase marker at the time, and that's how I got the idea for the song. Here are the lyrics:
It just seems hard to find out who I am
I've tried every look and attitude
But no matter what I change
It all comes down to what I choose.
And I feel lost and alone
(Chorus) I feel like I'm tracing myself down on paper
To look at how I could be me
And as I look, I look deeper on the inside
And see all I can be.
So I'm changing my ways
I think I finally understand who I am.
Sometimes it's like I'm putting on a show
and everyone thinks it's really me.
But the truth is that I don't know myself
as well as people seem to think.
So I feel lost and alone.
(Chorus)
Someday you'll find your true self
And you won't need to try to be like anyone else.
(Chorus)
Ya. So is you're ever writing a song, write it on a mirror. It works really good!
Don't you guys just love autumn? I don't yet. I still wish it was hot outside. If I actually saw the leaves changing or something then maybe I'd like it. But I haven't really seen much of that yet.
Tomorrow is Jeff Johnson's farewell. All of their cousins are going to be there apparently. It will be fun. Their cousins are going to be going to our classes and stuff from what I understood from Rachel and Susie.
Lol. This is the most random post ever. Oh well!
I gotta go get ready to start my day, so ttyl! And remember that it's your choice to be happy. Try to be in a good mood today, and I will too. See ya!
-Rachel
