Spring Break (and some spring cleaning)!

Ahhh.  The joys of Spring Break.  Getting off from school for a week in this wonderful weather, be at home in your jammys,  go to the park and get together with friends.   In my opinion a very productive week. 

We started off this spring break with a half day on Friday and after going home I drove to the local tennis courts and park with my sister.  We stayed there for about 45 minutes playing a VERY mean game of tennis (meaning breaking all the rules and just trying to master a back hand swing).  But none the less we got our exercise in and had fun.  Then we went and swang on the swings trying not to land in the water puddles right beneath us.  After that we packed up and left.  And...I successfully drove home!

The next day being  Saturday:  I got up and had this sudden urge to start cleaning.  I did!  My room is sooo much cleaner.  Though it might not look cleaner, it is.  I cleaned out my chest of draws and organized my closet.  Now,  keeping mind that I am not the best hose keeper and tend to shove things that don't fit me in the back of my draws.  So,  that being said I had LOTS of stuff to get rid of.  Lets just say the living room is now a mess with three loads of folded laundry needed to be sorted out in to give away, keep for Soncie,  keep for next year, and throw away.

It is now Sunday and my successfulness for the day is getting out of bed!

Musical-It's over!!!

If you have been following my past three blogs you will know that I was in a musical put on by the Marion High School drama and choir departments.  You would also know that we worked very hard and it was put on this past Friday and Saturday (the 3rd and 4th of March). 

First off let me inform you of what the back stage girls dressing room looks like.  Think of a time when your room was very, very, very, VERY messy.  An example:  you have to make a path to get to your bed or closet.  And when you finally clean your room up you find a total of $20 or a shirt you have been looking for for the past two weeks.  That is what the dressing room is like.  Now, think of about 10 girls in a room the size of a bathroom at Walmart.  And yes, we being teenaged girls we have makeup clothes, jewelery, toiletries and food with us.  Think.  How messy is that?  Very messy.  And this much mess seems to add stress to some people.

I have learned from this musical that many peoples attitude change when they are under stress.  Many girls could not be very caring or not the most friendly but when the musical came along and we were all back in the dressing room,  these people changed.  They were considerate and caring.  But it seemed like the sweetest girls in choir changed from the pressure of stress and were very snappy.  An example:  this girl who is one of the sweetest girls in choir snapped at me for something very minor.  I understand that she was annoyed and yes she did have a part with lines (which is worse with stress).  But I let it go because I know she did not mean it.  Then,  there were those people who didn't change at all.  They either stayed sweet as pie and a very few stayed being their bitter self. 

I loved this years musical and miss everybody in it.   I can't wait till next year and I love everybody that took part in it (yes all of you)! <3
