Woah!

I sure didn't follow up on that one did I? Well, Prom was absolutely magical. Mark showed up at my house and when he saw me he was very pleasantly shocked. He told me that I looked gorgeous multiple times. It was all very good. He also brought me a bouquet of Stargazer Lilies, my favorites. The pictures went well, as did the dinner. The night overall couldn't have went better. Mark and I didn't dance at the dance but we slow danced in his living room that night, and we played and watched movies and a few of us slept over and we all woke up early the next day and went to church! It was crazy. Here are some photos





So, that was Prom, and that was also like 3 or 4 months ago. Now it is coming to the end of summer and Mark and I have been dating exactly 6 months today!

Sophmore Prom!

So, today is the much awaited Prom. A few weeks ago that guy, the one I mentioned earlier, Mark, asked me to Prom with him. I'm still shell-shocked that he asked me to his senior prom! I can't even beleive we're actually dating. He's pretty much way too amazing and I don't deserve him...but I'm not complaining. =D Plans for today have been in the works for a while. I've already gotten my dress; it's full length black satin, strapless, and it's got white flowery embroidery cascading down the front. I woke up early this morning to tan, eat breakfast, and get my nails done. I came home and now I have to sit, just waiting for 2 o'clock to roll around so I can get my hair done. I'm just so unbelievably excited! I'm also more than a little nervous. I really really want to look good. He's coming around 5'ish to pick me up (I'm going to be just freaking out by then!) and then we'll head over to his house and then to the pictures at about 6:30'ish. Dinner is after that, I think, and then we'll head to the dance for a while. Mark told me he might even slow dance with me! But if not, that's okay too. After the dance we're going to his house to play some fun games, hang out, maybe watch a movie. I know this will just be amazing. He's so cute! I hope I look good, I don't want him to get high expectations and be disappointed. Well, I have to go take out my Crest Whitening Strips now and then brush my teeth and dry my hair. Hopefully I'll have another entry on how it went and include a picture!
Wish me luck!

Ramblings of a Teen Drama Queen

It's late, for me, and so I'm not going to bother trying to make this sound pretty. *sigh* What an exhausting year so far. School is absolutely insane, and my time is crunched worse than ever. I get sick of hearing everyone complain about how much homework we get and then they go home and have from 3PM until 10PM to do it all. If I had days like that I'd be getting a 4.0 GPA. Which I'm sorry to say that I'm not. Although I am very excited about getting my 1st Semester grades and seeing them all A's and B's. I'm not sure if I've ever gotten that good of a Report Card. But like my problem is that I don't ever have any time to do my homework. I'm so packed with Worship rehearsal/Leadership on Mondays, Choir on Tuesdays, Voice and Youth Group on Wednesdays, Choir and Krazy 8 afterwards on Thursdays, Symphony rehearsals on Saturdays, and Church twice every Sunday. That doesn't actually sound like too much, and it use to be worse before I dropped my viola lessons. But in between everything I have to find time to do all of my homework, rehearse for the Worship and the choir, and the Krazy 8, and the Symphony and the school orchestra and find time to do some working out and some Yoga and trying to find time to read all those books I wanted to read and time to maybe think about the possibility of having a life. Maybe. And of course on top of all this I'm struggling oh-so-much with my parents and my faith. I'm also in an emotional upheaval about my best friend Saida who is still having serious problems in grieving for her mother. Oh and I'm also in the process of getting this amazing guy to date me. But that could be a whole other blog, some other time. I just needed to rant, blogs can be fun outlets. I should probably get off the computer and return it to the desk because I think my laptop is about to die and I have to sleep. I will be gone all this weekend on Winter Retreat and with so much homework to do!! JOY! Well, wish me luck. Have a great weekend.
