Rain, Finals, Color Guard, and 22 Months


Darn rain! I really miss the sun, it makes me all cheery inside! This rain is pathetic. I'm really sick and tired of all this weather. At least it isn't cold though. That's a plus. But this ridonculous rain is just driving me crazy! And I couldn't find my umbrella today. Rats. I guess I will get over it eventually. But it sure does make the last part of the semester seem dreadful! Darn.

Speaking of the end of the semester, it is kind of like this here dinosaur. It is going to be the death of me!!! I have so many projects and papers due within the next two weeks. It is really making me freak out. It is really hard. This week, I have an art project that includes a drawing and a paper due as well as a paper for my Energy class. Oh, and a short paper for Human Development. But then next week, things get really crazy. Another art project is due, and another small paper for Human Development. Oh, and I have to sing two songs memorized in front of my class for Voice Techniques. Then comes finals week. Darn. I have my Energy Final on Tuesday morning, then my Drawing Final Critique on Tuesday evening. My next final is in Human Development on Thursday morning. And then I have my ridiculous Politics Final on Friday. Miserable week, that will be surely. I am working on so much stuff! This is ridiculous. But soon it will be summer!

Last week, on Wednesday, I got a call from Lyndsie Badger. She is currently the color guard adviser at Davis High School. Random that she would call me for sure. So it turns out that Mountain Crest High is looking for a guard adviser! And Lyndsie was calling me to let me know. She is aware of my desire to be a guard adviser. Woot! So I got really excited. I called Steven Hendricks, my dear old Davis band director, to get the phone number of the band director at Mountain Crest. He didn't answer his phone, which is ok because he's a busy guy. But he called me back later and gave me the MC band director's name and number. Then he said he would call the director, Jason, to let him know I would call later and also to recommend me for the job. Wow! I didn't even ask Steve to do that! (I can call him Steve now because I am graduated.) So that was awesome. I called Jason about an hour later, and he said he had been really excited to hear from me for a long time. It turns out that Darilyn Zabriskie, my old guard adviser, had called him on last Saturday to recommend me for the job. And I didn't even know there was a position open at the time! How cool is that? I think it is awesome. So Jason said that there would be interviews the week of finals, (yay, another thing I have to do that week). And after that I would know if I get the position! I think I have a really good chance of getting it. I sure hope I do! I just have to send in my resume and the application for it and I'm ready for the interview! Yay! And I did make a kick-butt-awesome color guard resume. :) yay!
So as of this Saturday, the 18th, Elder Jared Cline will have been on his mission for two months! Wow. I guess it hasn't been that bad, aside from the crying a lot part. But ya, 22 months left and he will be home! I'm not sure exactly how excited I am about that. It is so much better than 24 months fo shizzle! This picture is of Jared and his companion, Elder Ericksen. They're doing hard core awesome missionary work in Boston! Yay! I'm so happy that Jared and Elder Ericksen are doing so well. Jared is so excited in his letters. He is such an amazing guy! And he is also an amazing missionary. I hope that he got the Easter package I sent to him. I will find out when I get a letter from him this weekend! Woot! I'm excited. :)
Well, you have a fabulous day! Sorry this one was so long. I've been lazy in adding posts to my blog. Oh, well!
