Yeah I Know.....

Yes I know I am a horrible blogger. You wouldn't believe how busy I have been..... School, Cross Country (finally over), Marching Band (also over), and a little bit of D.E.C.A. I am sure there is more, I am just trying not to think about all that I have to do. I have been way too busy, but I think that's the way I like it..... doesn't give me much time to be board. School has been going, I am working really hard to try and get all my grades up! I don't have too much longer until the end of the semester! I would say my hardest class the semester is my Intro to Speech class. I have discovered that I am not the best speaker in public! I am working on getting better though, and I am looking forward to my informative speech right after Thanksgiving. I am going to try to put a speech together about how running is beneficial/ healthy for you. All in all school is going pretty good, and I have made a lot of really close friends! I am not sure what I would do with out these friends, and I am so greatfull for them, and all that they do for me.

I just finished up Cross Country a week ago. I am SO sad its over, and I am going to miss it alot!I finished off the season by going to Nike Cross Nationals in Boise. I started off the season by running a low 30 minute 5k. I honestly didn't know if it was really my sport after the first meet, but I told myself that I just had to work harder. Thats what I did and by the Orem meet I ran my fastest time with a 22.46! I was so happy that day. I knew then that I had offically beat Jade's time, and that made me the fastest girl on the team AS A FRESHMAN! After that race, I knew I was going to have to work for it if I wanted to stay on top! I was really looking forward to state, that trip was kind of ruined but I still had a really good time. And I learned that coach knows how to cast your ankles with tape.... HAHA! Needless to say I still have the marks on my legs where the scisors were digging into my leg, trying to get the tape off!

Nationals was great and I had A LOT of fun! Even though I missed my start by a minute and a half it was still way worth going, and I am glad that my dad could take me :D It was really cool seeing the fastest girl run...... My dream is to run a 17.51 before I graduate..... guess I better start running Haha!

I am also particapating in D.E.C.A. Its like buisness prep. We took a trip to Casper for M.E.C this year, and lets say I have never laughed SO HARD in my life. It was a great trip, and I am really glad that I was able to spend it with Kaylee (my ginger). What a great friend she is to me! While at M.E.C. my and Kaylee proved it is possible to stay in an ice bath for 20 minutes. Haha that was a fun time, and too bad the pictures are on my phone, I will have to try to figure out how to get my pictures from my phone onto the computer.

I also am finished with Marching Band..... That was NOT my favorite but I pushed through just because I have to. State marching band was probably the worst trip I have been on it a long time.... It was long and not going to lie it wasn't very much fun. I thought our proformance was awesome and we worked way hard, but the judges didn't agree. We were in those heavy marching uniforms, and the building we were in was HEATED! Its a good thing only about 20 people passed out... not even joking!

I have been busy, but I have had a lot of good times with my friends! Sorry I am trying to be better about updating, and I will try a little harder!
