Discoveries.

1) Apparently I have a knack for making CD mixes.
I have made countless CDs for birthdays and other various reasons.
Each one I put a lot of effort into making sure each song flows just right.
Each one I give away is loved. Not only by the intended recipient but their families and anyone else that cares to listen.
I love that so much. I love sharing my passion, my music with them all.
Knowing that I touched their lives in a small way makes me happy.

2) Cosmic Love by Florence And The Machine.
Such a different, powerful song.
My chorus teacher does this thing on Fridays where she plays three songs. We analyze them and write about what we hear.
In my advanced choir she played this song, surround sound, loud and clear.
It seriously blew my mind. I came home and downloaded it and have been listening to it non-stop.

3) My iPod is too small.
It can not hold all of my music and this makes me genuinely upset.
Pathetic I know.

There is my life in a nutshell.
Here it is in a word: Music.

Sophmore. Woot.

School started today.
At first i was a little apprehensive because i heard about all these nightmares with scheduling.
There was no need for worry though because everything is PERFECT.

1st period- Pre Calculus AB. The teacher is a coach so it's looking good! [:
2nd period- English 2. Nothing to say yet.
3rd period- Chemistry. My teacher is British. I have an obsession with British accents so this is going to be AWESOME.
4th period- Belle Chantique. That's the upper women's chorus that I was put into. It is basically the best thing ever. We immediately started singing today. FABULOUS.
Lunch
5th period- Singers. That is the mixed choir i'm in as well. It was a little more crazy than Belle since it had 75 people as opposed to 40. It should be fun with the boys. [:
6th period- AP European History. This is my first college level course and it's going to be A LOT of reading and writing. Hopefully, i'll do well.

Today was wonderful.
This year will be wonderful.

I keep forgetting i'm a sophmore now. So weird.

Till next time.

...

Sure has been a long, long time since I've updated.
A lot has happened, as i'm sure you all know.

Freshman year has gone and past, Sophomore year is coming up fast and strong.
Last year was great and filled with heart break, but with God I was able to stay strong and continue to become stronger everyday.

I'm so excited about the brand new start of a new year.
New chorus classes (yes I am taking TWO! The highest choir for girls, Belle Chantique and a mixed choir of 80 boys and girls.), developing friendships, a license (already got the car!), skydiving, and so many other exciting things await me.

This summer has been fun (some days more fun than others) but I've been trying to keep busy.
I just got back from the beach with a good friend and some new people. It was really fun, even if I did get burned.
I've been hanging out with my "might-as-well-be" sister Annie a lot this summer, between going garage-saling and all the frozen yogurt runs. I'm sure going to miss her this year while she's at FC.

My brother leaves for USF in a couple of days.
I'm going to be an only child. Weird.
I did get a dog so...i guess that makes up for it.

I've been enjoying writing a lot more recently since me and my friend have started emailing during this summer to keep in touch.
Expect to have a few more entries with a little more details as my year goes on.

With love,
Beth.

    Here's to a great school year! What kind of dog did you get? And where's the best frozen yogurt in town?

    My dog is a hound of some sort. You'll have to ask my dad about it.
    The best frozen yogurt in town is Fuzions, by far. It is SO good. It's on Thomasville road by the Red Elephant and Five Guys.
    I totally recommend you go sometime.

  • nzmom
    Well, I've been to Five Guys but not to the Red Elephant, but you've just given me another reason to go over there.

    I miss you Beth! I'm so excited for your sophomore year-wow, can't believe you're already a sophomore! Time goes so fast!

  • nzmom
    MMMMMM..... Fuzions IS so good! Thanks for the tip. In fact, when I had lunch with my friend at Red Elephant today, she told me that she likes to go next door to this really good frozen yogurt store... so she went with me.

Woot.

Well Hi there.

Stories stories.
Everything is just dandy.
My momma is going down to Mofit tomorrow for some tests.
Nothing big. Just be sure to pray for her! :]

The holiday season is creeping up and i couldn't be more excited!!
This means lots of chorus concerts. Yay!

My classes are all good.
I really like Biology now. [:
I do not like World History.
I love Chrous.
Hate World History.

I am happy.
