Write Away Friday: Friendship

1. What tasks have you completed recently?  
 Well in the musical Beauty and the Beast, I am Mrs.Potts :) The days are few until the performance so this week  I have mastered the first act. The second act is a little rough but next week it will be mastered. I know my song and that is what counts. JK:) lol. Don't let anyone in the play read this blog though(Know what i mean). Anyways... Also this week and last week I worked really hard to get ready for the test. I did my glog and an extra credit glog. I did the blogs and an extra credit blog. I also did most of the extra credit lab and finished the lab. And I studied and I drew pictures like none other. On top of that I worked diligently on  the most ridiculously long coloring packet of my life. This week was so stressful. I am also in the process of writing my first essay of the year for Mrs. Hansen. I also attended a family history activity and I was able to learn a little more about my dad. He even let me wear the jacket he wore from West Point. Everyone says I look like him. hahaha. I kinda see it. Today I went to Yoga Club. We didn't do Yoga though because the instructor is out of town. Instead Mrs. Phillips did a relaxation class. I had a hard time relaxing my mind because I was thinking about being aware and how that part of the brain needed to just turn off. But then I became unaware and fell asleep. At the end Mrs. Phillips was counting down 5-4-3-2-1 and then was like okay its over and what not. Well I was half awake while she was counting and I could have sworn that it was Friday morning and I was in my bed getting ready to be woken up!!! So then I thought " why is mom counting down? That is so wierd!!" But when she got to the end I woke up and I realized that I was in Mrs. Phillips room at lunch. It was the strangest thing.

2. What have you learned recently? 
Recently I learned the foxtrot. I don't really like the foxtrot because it is more of a romantic dance and it is awkward to dance it with older men that go to the dance class at NMSU. But I mean, the guys there are always really nice but I just like to learn the dance. Well this subject got a little awkward for me... So we will continue. I learned a bit about friendship this week. Friends are so important. It is so important to be aware of their needs, but it is important to tell your friends what is going on with you. Explanations can help everyone understand where you are coming from. But it is also important to let them tell you when they are ready. Friendship helps to make another person feel like someone cares. We can not be expected to carry all the hardships we face. We need to bare one another's burdens because we are all strong at different things and at different times. I also learned how to make a really good pizza. Friends are also for someone to eat pizza or ice cream with lol. Sometimes I wish that maybe I had more friends or that I was better with people. But that is the worst attitude to have. It is important to realize what you have, life is fleeting. I think Charles Dickens said " life is full of meetings and partings, that is the way of it." I thought about the party my sister had when she was a junior. It seemed to my 8th grade self that she had so many friends and people that were close with her. Now that I am in high school I understand that friendships just grow so strong. That is why taking the time now is important. It helps you to grow and I feel like I am rambling but I am just so grateful for my friends.  That sounds like some cat poster. (If you have seen the Lego Movie that quote will make sense.) hahaha I am a jokester:) 

3. What are you planning on doing next?

Tomorrow I am going to the Priest and Laurels Conference. It is basically an activity for the older aged teens like 16-18 to get to know each other and enjoy living the gospel together. We usually do a service project or learn a skill and then have a dance. I am so excited. I am also going to start a few projects like that BIG one in Anat. and Phys. Tomorrow is also the day they are trying out the make up for Mrs. Potts on me. I am nervous but I am also excited. Well I need to get some unawareness time AKA sleep and I am probably sharing a lot more than I need to but that is okay.
