So, today I performed as Mrs. Bradley in The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. I had an awesome time, especially considering that it was my first homeschool production. I'll add pictures soon.
Sure there were little messups, but that's what happens when you've only run the entire thing once before the performance.
Phew.
Well, I had a great time. I think it really was the best Christmas pageant ever!
...and now, I'm totally exhausted and drained. I'm a couple days behind in my schoolwork, my room is a mess, dad's in Nevada... I miss my old friends.
LOVE my new ones, but miss the old ones.
...sigh. i'm just gonna chill. and not do schoolwork.

Why do I always write in lists? Ugh.

Pros and Cons

Cons of homeschooling:
Less time with people.
Suddenly associated with the horrible "homeschooler" connotation.
Less professional productions.
Less time with old friends.
Having to keep yourself on schedule.

Pros of homeschooling:
New friends.
Time for more acting.
No uniform.
More spare time.
Less work in general.

I have no clue what I'm going to do next year. *sigh.*
OK, toodles for now.

Road To 30.

So those Flames and I
Went on a trip
It was quite fun.
We laughed quite a bit.

Nebraska was our trip's final destination.
In the end we were placed 20th in the nation!
OK, so I lied.
We weren't really that good.
We placed 28th...
I only lie when I should.

We won just a few,
And we lost almost all.
And now all my dreams
Are about volleyball.

[stinkin' volleyball.]

I hope you enjoyed
This poem of mine.
Maybe next time,
we'll place 29!

ps. I promise- I'm actually a very positive person.

BUT..

Nebraska has the largest furniture store in America.

That counts for something, right?

What's Omaha?

Who knows the population of Nebraska?
Nobody.
Who knows how many tourists come to Nebraska each year?
Nobody.

Yet...here I am. In Nebraska.
I'm telling you. My heart belongs in New York. LA. Paris. Milan.
Not...
Nebraska.

Oh well. Hope we win our tournament.

(In Nebraska...?)

"Love is faithful, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud, it is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perserveres."
1st Corinthians 13:4
