Mah...

Basically I never write on this...but that's okay.

At our first marching band competition on Saturday we got 3rd place! I'm very pleased! We're only gonna get better.

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend.

I am...

I am going to buy a type writer. A good ol' fashioned beautiful writer of the type.



For as long as I can remember I've always wanted a type writer. They fascinate me. I suppose it stems from my love off all things old fashioned, vintage, and antique.

Also, they make such a delicious sound.

La de da...

In less than twelve hours I leave on an adventure with some of my bestest friends. The Drum Majors, a soon-to-be Drum Major, and I are going to a Drum Major leadership camp in California!

It will be epic, and I am very excited! :)

Anyways, on another note, I started this new book recently called The Help. It's a book about two African American maids in the early sixties in Jackson, Mississippi and how they come to meet a white woman who wants to tell their stories. What it's like to work for whites in such times. It's excellent and I highly recommend it!

One of many things I love about reading a new book is the feeling of anticipation. How I don't know whats going to happen but I feel it's something good. The mystery is astounding. I love how books take me in and take me away. How all I have to do is sit on my bed eating Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and I'm down in Jackson Mississippi rooting for people who didn't exist, but for an idea that did. An idea of freedom, of fairness.

How glorious it truly is! How freeing to read words on a page that turn out to be so much more than just words. How wonderful it is for a teenaged girl in Utah to travel the world and have adventures from her living room.

I thank my Heavenly Father for inspiring words! Not just for the fantastic books of Fiction and fantasy. Not just for the histories and biographies. But for the best words. His words. The greatest words I'll ever know. :)
