It's the Morning report!

Dear Reader,

For those who haven't seen The Lion King as a live musical production, today's title comes from one of the first songs in the show when Zazu and Simba are talking with Mufasa about what is going on in the animal kingdom. I use it today because my morning report is not very good.

This morning I woke up incredibly late (About 10:45). I was not happy. Luckily, there was no pressing matter to attend to this morning. On the other hand, it is not the most pleasant experience to waste three or four hours in the morning on sleeping. If I had it my way everyday, which rarely happens, the morning report would look something like this:

7:00 AM - Wake up/Shower/Eat Breakfast
8:00 AM - Read for about an hour (Preferably from the scriptures)
9:00 AM - Write something. This something can be a letter to a missionary, a blog post or even an entry in a journal
10:00 AM through 4:00 PM - Whatever activity is pressing that day. This may include cleaning, reading for work, shopping for groceries, etc.

Typical morning report for my liking. That did not happen today. Instead, it looked something like this:

10:45 - Wake up/Shower
11:30 - Write on Blog
12:00 - Ride up to Orem for Work

Yeah...we are going to work on getting this stuff down for getting up at a reasonable hour. We will see what we can do about that.

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breath, shine like gold...

Dear Readers, Ok, so I can't fit the entire title into the title box. It's a good song, go look it up: "You make me smile." The title can apply to anyone, I've found. The rest of the lyrics would probably refer to a best friend or a significant other, but anyone can make you smile. They all have the own way of doing it. Some are just funny all the time and you can't help smiling when you're around that person. I know some who take care of people so well that you just smile when they're doing something for another. Others you can talk to about your problems and no matter what they say, it seems to make sense and you feel better...thus a smile. Ok, a smile doesn't always come in that case, but people usually smile after that. Anyone can have a blonde moment and make everyone smile because of it. I'm glad I've got friends who can do all of these: have blonde moments, take care of others or have an episode of hyperactivity that you can't he...

Happy Doo da Day!

Dear Readers, You'll all be pleased to know that I accomplished something recently. It involves music and I feel very proud of myself. I was selected by our music director to play in our school's concerto night sometime during the month of May. This is one of the few things I've been hoping to do for a very long time. Although, there are a few reservations about being part of this honor. One of which deals with how the selection process works. I know it doesn't matter in the least bit, but I can't help thinking about me being picked as a senior. I tried out last year and did not make it as one of the soloists. I have to assume that had to be part of the process in selecting someone when looking at the list of soloists. They are all amazingly talented people in music, many of which were part of Concerto night last night. Most of the ones who were not participated in the Spring Concert as soloists. See what I mean? It could be possible that I was picked merely because...

When You Wish Upon a Star

Dear Reader, One short day in the [Segovia] City! It is a beautiful city, to be sure. As part of our study abroad program in Spain, our group takes various trips to different cities here in Spain to see museums, palaces and history from several different eras of humanity. Today it was a pleasure to travel to Segovia. We had several adventures while we were there. First off, we stopped off at the Palacio de la Granja (Palace of the Farm). It was an attempt to replicate the Palace of Versailles in France back in the 18th century. We weren't able to enter the palace itself, but we spent about an hour walking around the numerous gardens on the south side of the palace. The palace gardens awesome. The pictures taken here don't do it justice. The gardens stretched father than you can see and the statues were absolutely beautiful. They were representations of hunting on the grounds with dogs, Greek Gods, and other famous figures from the middle ages. However, despit...
