Well, sorry it's been so long since I last wrote here. I can't say that I've been too busy, I just really haven't felt like writing anything. I'm not really sure that I feel like writing anything right now either, so I hope that I can say something that's not weird or stupid. :) I've had a really great summer so far. I've pretty much just been working a few house a week and spending the rest of my time with friends and family. I love it so much. I love being able to focus on doing some things that I really like to do instead of constantly doing things that I have to do.
I got a new vocal coach for the summer. She's absolutely amazing and I'm so glad that she's helping me get ready for auditions! I need to call and set up another lesson now that I think about it... Anyways, she's amazing. She taught me one simple breathing trick that I have been doing wrong and suddenly, I can sing so much more supported! I can't even believe the difference that it made. I really liked my old vocal coach, bu in reality, she really wasn't experienced enough to teach me. I felt like she taught me things that I already knew and that she didn't know what to do with me next. My new teacher, however, knows exactly what to teach me and I really believe that I'll be pretty prepared for my auditions when school starts.
I'm pretty nervous for school to start. I'm still not really sure if music is the way that I want to go. I have another idea of what I'd like to do, I'm just not sure that it's something that is practical, I guess. I'm not going to go into anything on my blog, but feel free to ask me in person and I'll tell you what I've been thinking about. It's something that I've dreamed about for a while, I'm just not sure; but, I feel like I'm not really sure about very much lately. I'm not sure that the U is where I should be or if music is what I should major in; however, I have faith that it will all work out. You know, I truly believe that I have been placed to make certain decisions to help me grow the most. So, I really hope that I'm making all the right decisions right now.
A LOT of my friends are headed up to Utah State for college and I'm pretty bummed about that. I'm really going to miss the people that are headed up there. I'm losing some of my very best friends: boys and girls. One of my best friends told me that she thought about leaving me the other day and she cried to her mom. I just can't imagine being without some of the people that have helped me to get to where I am right now. I'm so happy for each and every one of them, but I'll miss them. I know that they're going to do amazing and awesome things at Utah State and that I'll do amazing and awesome things at the U, but I'll miss them a lot.
Then, soon after college starts a lot of my friends will be going on missions! It's so crazy to think about, but I couldn't be happier for each and every one of them who is making the right choice to serve the Lord. They'll have such great experiences and opportunities, and I can't wait to see the changes that come over them because of their service. Their missions will be so great for each and every one of them. It'll be hard to not be able to see some of them for two year, but I support each and every one of them for the righteous decision.
I think that what I'm trying to get at, is that my friends are going to do amazing things. I can't wait to pass someone in the grocery store and hear about their lives or hear from my parents that one of my old friends is doing something amazing. I have been so blessed to have each and every single friend that I have had throughout my life- especially in high school. We really did band together to become the best people we could during those three years, and I'm so grateful for every single person that helped me grow and become better. We're all going to do such amazing things. It's going to be hard for me the first few months, but I'm sure that I'll make more amazing friends, and I'll definitely NEVER forget the friends that I won't see as much. I'm sure there will probably be a few that I'll keep in contact with: phone calls, texts, and e-mails; but even the ones I don't, I want you to know that you're appreciated. I realize that very few people read this... my bad on that one, but I want all of you to know (even the ones that will never read this) that I truly was influenced for good because you were my friend. I truly believe that we become like our friends, and I'm so grateful that I was able to find good seeds. I found the best friends that a girl could ask for and I'm so grateful for that. I never have to worry about what we watch or listen to, because I know that my standards were respected and shared by my friends. So, I guess that was just a big huge thank you to everyone. It was a hard three years, but it was more than worth it so that I could meet some amazing people and grow into the type of person I am right now. Thank you everyone.
I can't see how things are going to pan out right now, but I know I'll look back in a few years and have more people to thank. I know I'll look back and be able to see even more growth in myself as well as my friends and that's an excellent thought. I hope that everyone has a spectacular summer. Take advantage of your opportunities and remember your blessings. I know I'm trying to do that better. :) Thank you for being my friends, I love you all.
