Did you know I'm going to college?

I got this really awesome Drake Hoodie today. Thanks Aunt Karyn and Uncle Tom
I know I just posted a blog this week, but I received a box of college stuff today. And I'm really excited about it, because Drake is so close. Also I wanted to say that I got into "You Can't Take It With You" I play Gay Wellington a drunk actress. Also, Issue Driven went really well even though the show was only 40 mins long.  I can't wait to go to Drake this fall, I'm getting more and more excited.
I got a box full of college stuff. (Including an Iron, gum, razzles, poster putty, sewing kit, laundry hamper, and more)! Thanks Aunt Karyn and Uncle Tom

Me in my Taco Bell hat, because today is Sunday and I have to go to work.

It's official. I'm going to Drake.

Although there was never any doubt in my mind. We got the financial aid package this weekend, and Drake is giving me a little bitmore money and I qualified for work study. There's about $9,000 I still need, but the important part is I'm practically there. I'm going to work over summer to get probably 2,000 more dollars. Then any graduation money I get is going straight to the college account. I am so excited to go to Drake. I just can't wait.

This month has been really busy. I made it to sixth place at state for DECA. I got a call back for the spring play, and find out tomorrow if I'm in it or not. The show is "You Can't Take It With You." It is a straight play, but a comedy none the less. My club is about to do a huge event, and I think as an organizer it is going to go very well.

My last highschool spring break is next week, and I'm going to hang out at home cleaning and doing homework. Maybe playing a little sims. I'm totally ready for a break from school.

I currently weigh 156 lbs to 157 lbs. And the goal is to lose about 11 more pounds before prom which is April 16. I really hope I make that goal, so I can look Fab-U-lous at prom.

This picture is from this summer before I took my senior photos. I had allergies which is why my eyes look so watery. Hopefully I don't have allergies during the summer at Drake.

Getting Graduation Ready.

It is almost the end of the month of January, and I can say that I have lost about 5 to 6 pounds. The goal is to weigh 130 by graduation (which is May 19). I'm really proud of myself for taking initiative to lose the weight, and I'm hoping when it comes to the Freshman fifteen mine doesn't happen.

The month of February is going to be crazy! I have a charity theatre show that I choreographed two parts in and I'm doing the sound for. I am going to DECA state at the end of the month, but have practices once a week. Then the weekend of DECA is the first week of Footloose at school. The month is so busy, it will probably just fly by.

I'm so excited to go to Drake this fall. I can barely describe it into words. My mom is going to take me to Florida for a few days as a graduation gift. I've decided I'm definitely going to do a Double major in English and most likely Public Relations with a degree in secondary education. It will be a lot of hard work, but I think I can handle it.

These next few months are going to disappear so quickly, with Spring shows, comedy night, working at Taco Bell, everything! I guess I'll just have to keep pushing through it all.


This is from Christmas when I got new make up. Sorry that it is sideways.
