I think so. Kind of random, but you know. Anyway, I just want to say that I am working on actual posts. These all picture posts I've been doing aren't the usual, just what I've been doing lately. (unless you love them, then I do them all the time ;) I've got some photographs I took on a trip to Utah this summer, a play list for August, and hopefully some more poetry coming up to post. I thought you should know. (by the way, who are you? I have no idea who/ if anyone reads this blog. Actually I don't really mind if no one reads this. My blog is more for me than anything else. If you don't have a blog I really recommend you get one. They are a great way to keep things straight. You can post poetry, photography, art, etc. You can even use it as a private journal if you'd like.
On another note, this morning I went to the Deer Valley freshman back to school tours with my Mom. It's crazy how nervous I've been about the new school year. Being a freshman and everything that comes with it (new school, new classes, new people) can be/ is very scary to me. It was nice though to be able to walk around and run through my classes. After several weeks of pure stress, coming to the tours was the last thing I thought could help me feel more calm about high school. When I showed up though, I went through the tour, walked through my classes, and was even able to see some people I hadn't seen all summer. After I figured up that our building numbers were actually lined up pretty simply I realized I don't have much to be afraid of. Except maybe being run over while walking to seminary, or eating alone in a corner. Just kidding. I'm actually pretty lucky to have friends in school that I can do both of those things with. OK weird half story: My Mom and I were walking through the halls in the 100 building trying to find my Algebra 1-2 Honers class when this guy (college age-ish) stopped us and asked what we were looking for. We told him we were looking for my Algebra class and he told us where it was. He continued to talk to us about how he had been a student at Deer Valley and was now teaching Physics. Later when we were going through my schedule one last time we were walking down the hallway again and he looked up and was like, "your back?!" Haha. Kind of random. We also met these two guys who also used to go to Deer Valley and were now teaching Social Studies, Girls Golf, and Football. I think I've already said this a thousand times, but really, after being so nervous about this new situation, it was kind of a relief to just have random teachers in the hallways so willing to just say hello and have a random conversation with us when I'm sure they had things to do.
Alright, one more thing. At mutual last night the Miamaides from our ward were combined with the Miamaides from the Bellaire ward. You have to understand that all I knew coming into mutual yesterday was that we were having a birthday party. Yeah. Lets just say I wasn't totally looking forward to it, especially because I still have tons of work to do on my summer Health class. Long story short I actually ended up having a lot of fun. I just want to thank (I don't know if you read this) Hannah and Jenetta. I'm so lucky to have them as friends. I honestly don't know what I would do without them. (I guess if I didn't know them I wouldn't know any better, but you know what I mean) Welp, that's all I have to say for today.
