First I'm going to clear up something really quick: I got in to Philharmonia!!! Yes, I am thrilled. However, upon arrival, I learned very many things. The first unpleasant surprise is I would be playing with sharps; not flats, since it's an orchestra. I'm not fabulous with any sharps, excepting F#. The second is the first concert is December 13th. So, I have approximately five practices until a concert. The third was all of the songs are way above my level. Fabulous.
Yesterday, I practiced for a half hour and ended up feeling like I got nowhere. Anyway, I think I should probably move on in this post...
Guess what guys?!?!? Today's Halloween! I'm going Trick-or-Treating (who doesn't love candy?) with my cousin and my brother. Probably my dad too. I'm excited, but unfortunately I'm sick. It doesn't really matter, I'm going anyway. I mean, Halloween does only come once a year.
I know everyone says this, but have a safe Halloween. Don't go into any houses, never know what kind of creeper is inside. Not to sound paranoid.
Now: Go get yourself bags of candy, enough to last until next Halloween, or you will be severely lacking. I certainly wasn't. I swear, I had enough candy until last week. It was awesome! Just in time for Halloween, too.
I love my readers, you know that.
Have a Wicked Halloween.
Let it Glee.

A Penny for Your Thoughts
Last night was the Halloween Dance, and I am thrilled to say that I had so much fun! It was a great party, and my friends rock. That's all, they made it for me. Plus: I had three cupcakes, all of them fabulous! You're probably saying "ah, that's why she's not in school! Poor thing is sick!" No. I can handle chocolate, I promise. Chocolate cannot make me sick unless I completely eat all of it. LOL have never gotten quite that much, though. But anyway... They played good music last night, which was cool! I got me some Taylor Swift, and of course, Thriller. The spook house was also good, though the line was a tad slow-moving.
Moving on from the dance...
School's been good this week. Yes, this week was only three days, but there was the first semester! I'm gonna miss it when June comes, I can already tell. This year is my year. I love 7th grade. Monday was just your average school day, Tuesday was a field trip to a Mass in Lansing, and Wednesday was our Halloween party all day. Then I got to come home and get ready for another Halloween party back at the school, to which I stayed until 8:30. Such a laid-back week.
Today I'm at home while my teachers are at a workshop. I slept in until 9:30 on a Thursday. You cannot imagine how fabulous it feels. All day, I've been sitting around watching TV. Then I went on youtube and listened to Taylor Swift's new song. Jump Then Fall. It relaxed me. Check it out.
For Flint happenings... Let's talk Philharmonia! I think that's how you spell it. I hope. I'm trying out today. I play clarinet, and am praying I get in. Seeing as, you know, my friends did and all. Yes, Im nervous, but I'll explain why.
Philharmonia is a Flint Youth Band thing. I don't know that much about it, as you can see. But I;m expecting it to be fun. My friend Katie said last year the band went to Chicago. I'm dying to get in, seeing as I decided volleyball was not for me. I love things like this, where I apply my skill (how modest am I?) to do something with my friends.
Say a little prayer for me tonight, or think of me. Something. I'll be trying out tonight, though I don't remember the time.
Hope you enjoyed this post.

And THAT Idea went out the Window!
I was going to ride the bus, see. I'm only going to name the people who have given me license to, but here goes nothing. I was going to ride a bus with Olivia and Katie and other unnamed people. Because I don't remember if TJ rides their bus or not. Then I found out that I wouldn't be on their bus. This was automatically a huge disappointment, and if you know me, you know why.
If you don't, allow me to explain. I'm the sort of person who gets all their hopes up with a single idea. And, most the time, as the title of this post suggests, the ideas are tossed out the window sooner or later. Either way, I wanted to ride that bus. Moving on...
Halloween is just five days away. I'm excited this year... I have a really pretty yellow dress I'm wearing but can't wear to school, and an awesome black masquerade mask, and I'm set. My cousin Janelle still doesn't know what she's being, which would normally be perfectly fine except for the fact that I won't let her go costume-less.
I'm pretty sure there's nothing new in Flint right now, actually. Well, at least, nothing I've attended. I get busy around the holidays. All of them. I get distracted. Therefore, I don't do as many Flint things. See how that works? I have to go, my mom's gonna come down in a minute ready to leave, and I still have stuff to do.
Have a truthful Tuesday (DON'T LIE!) and
Let it Glee.

A Pumpkin Story
Let me explain the title. I'm with my amazing cousin, Janelle. We just got our pumpkins!!! Yes: Halloween is less than a week away. What am I? I'm being a masqueradette. If you don't know what that is, it's one of those cool people in the pretty dresses and fancy masks. Hopefully, Janelle will be being a masqueradette with me.
Janelle and Colton decided to name their pumpkins Teddy Lupin and Autumn. Autumn? Fitting. Teddy Lupin? Not so much. Anyways, their pumpkins are besties (pronounced beastiis, according to Janelle). Just like me and my cousin.
For those of you who were wondering, I am going to be Trick-or-Treating IN FLINT. Ooooh, risky! Not really. Trust me, it's what I've been saying all along. It's all good in the hood.
Sorry I haven't blogged in so long. Life is busy.
Have a spectacular Sunday, hope its as great as mine.
Jazz hands.
Spirit Fingers.
(These additions were of suggestions from Janelle. She rocks my socks.)
