So long my ridiculously long locks...

So I did something a little drastic the other day... it was drastic but necessary. So my hair was probably about 2 (very unhealthy) feet long, and it was becoming a pain to take care of.

So I went to get it cut and I brought in my picture...really it was only supposed to be like 5-6 inches shorter. Then she asked if I wanted to donate it. I have always wanted to do that but I've been too chicken to cut my hair so short, but anyway, this time I decided to do it. In order to donate it I think it has to be 10 inches...so my cut came out like this...


and I really like it!!! So anyway... just the latest bit of exciting news!

p.s. sorry I'm so bad a blogging....

Bum ba dah dum bum bum BUM!

Geez everyone will you just get those pictures up already? (oh wait...that's me) Yes I realize it's been years since I said I would have them up and I aplogize. I don't have any good excuses. Well here goes!

Let's start with the General Conference trip. A couple weekends ago I went with my Young Women on a very long car trip to UTAH! We got to go to both Saturday sessions. I think my favorite part of this trip was being apart of the solemn assembly. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience.



This is a view of the temple from the conference center, and I just like this picture.

One of my favorite a Capella groups, Eclipse, was performing at the Joseph Smith building when we went there! I got a picture with them but it was taken on my friend's camera which was recently stolen, so that's a bummer.

I really didn't get a lot of pictures conference weekend because every time you whip out a camera in the conference center some official barks at you. We Young Women were quite afraid of these people.

Now to move on to the next weekend which was my weekend in NEW YORK! Every year my choir class does a tour and this year we decided to try New York. I'm was in 3 of the choirs that competed and our Women's Ensemble won 1st Place Gold which was very exciting. Honors Choir and Show Choir (the other choirs I'm in) both took 3rd Place Silver which is still pretty good. Those two choirs are "lunch time choirs" meaning the only time we practice is at lunch. Really we only got to rehearse about 1 hour a week, so for doing as good as we did is pretty exciting!

Now for the pictures!


Just a little bit of Broadway



Me and my roommate Kourtney after being awake for 24 hours (we took a red eye and didn't even get to the hotel until about 10. So literally we had been awake for about 26 hours) and our hotel keys weren't working.


The view from our hotel room


bffs


This is the firehouse of the first firemen who arrived at the twin towers. Every one of them were killed so the firehouse is now a memorial.


cool view of the streets


I'm a photographer (?)


This was the craziest church I've ever seen. Inside was insane, it reminded me of The Da Vinci Code.


These are the UFO's from Men in Black


buildings to infinitly


lady liberty


This is the church our competition was in.


Us on the cruse (this is a really attractive picture of all of us.)

So that's not all the pictures but a lot of them need to be turned to be right side up and my computer isn't letting me do that right now. I'll post a separate one with those pictures. ANYWAY there you go! I'll try to keep up on my blogging better but getting closer to the end of the year is getting pretty crazy. I'll try my best!

Sorry for the delay

I realize it's already been a while since I announced my presence in bloggerdom, it's been pretty busy. As soon as I finish this English paper, and learn how to upload pictures to the computer (from my NEW camera) I'll tell you all about General Conference weekend, and of course my New York excursion. Don't fret. The best is yet to come.

It starts...

So here we go. I've decided to enter the world of blogging. Some of you out there (the-jbs) may be wondering..."Well why doesn't she just add to the family blog we made her parents?" I'll tell you why... I don't know. Probably because for some reason this is just easier for me this way. At any rate, I'm going to try to keep up with the times and post the most special happenings of my life. Hope you enjoy!
