this week

monday- had my last sports banquet. sad times.

Ok today is thursday, and I didn't have school. I don't have school tomorrow either. YAY for Providence High School for not having school ever. I was pretty spontaneous today. I ran this morning. I felt accomplished. Then I learned 1000miles by vanessa carlton on the piano. Played with nat's dog (pebbles) for 10 minutes. Then nat came over and ate my food. Ate cuppycakes that david and marianne brought me. Then we went to tracey's house but then she wasn't even home. THEEEN we went to the cemetery to visit grandparentals, prayed and meditated. Then I played piano again. And now im blogging.And singing a sound of music song with natalie on aim..-_-


be back later

I haven't blogged in quite a while.
Hmm well.. I don't really do anything after school without basketball. I've been trying to run whenever I get the time; it makes me feel better. I get to catch every Laker game now. umm I dont really know. I just feel like I have so much time on my hands now. I'm gonna apply for a job soon,hopefully. OH!Im teaching one of my friends how to play the piano. yeaahh..I'm really excited for her to learn!!YOU DONT EVEN KNOW MAN! Hope my teaching actually gets her to play a real song in a few weeks or month. Then we can JAM together! :] yay for music! She's lucky she doesnt have to deal with those lame teachers! I've had three teachers. The 1st teacher basically quit on me because she got a better job i think. And then the 2nd teacher I had, I forgot why she stopped being my teacher. My 3rd teacher was to intense for me!wow.yeah.It was way too hardcore for me. It's all good as long as you know how to read notes on a piano sheet you're set forever! Theres youtube now too, so sometimes you don't even need the sheets! ahahaha.Playing by ear is a challenge but, you feel accomplished when you figure a song out!..I think piano is one of the best things ever besides drawing and sports. Sometimes, when I'm bored or when I'm frustrated (because I can't play a song right after several attempts", I JUST MAKE UP MY OWN! you should try it! I think I have three. FUN TIMES. ok im done! byeee

ONE LAST GAME

Tonight was our last game of the season... We played Viewpoint again and this time it was their senior night. They might have beaten us on our senior night, in return we did the same AND caused them the title of league champs.Our team may not have the best record in league but, I am so proud to be a part of this team. I LOVE THEM.

-It's funny how you look back on things and usually there is more to come, but this time its differe, when we look back on our basketball memories, thats its for us seniors, there are no more high school basketball games to come. I ALREADY MISS IT. It's only been 4 hours.
