To be clichéd, Happy New Year!

Hmmm, what has happened this year?

• Musical: January to April preparing for 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.' It was a good time, I met a lot of fun people and I temporarily improved my coordination issues. 
• My first job: Remember, future me; a summer student job at a church=doing everything no one else wants to do. Heck, I was really overworked, but I made money, enjoyed myself occasionally, had great coworkers, I'm not scared of kids anymore and found out my mad skills with a paper cutter.
• Eleventh grade: I've gotten a lot closer to my classmates. We have good times, I like my classes and I see an eventual end to high school. I've also joined choir which has been quite enjoyable. I finally feel comfortable in high school. 

What to look forward to this year:

• Another musical, Miss Saigon. 
• My IB French exam. *insert look of terror.*
• Summer and whatever happens then.
• The beginning of my 12th grade year. 

Goals:

• Pick up guitar again. I've slacked since summer.
• Read Lord of the Rings. 
• Take French seriously to avert disaster.

Tonight I get trek over to a hall in the sticks for the youth New Year's all-nighter. There shall be nachos, a bonfire on the beach, movies and me getting grumpy somewhere between 12 and 2 and going to bed. It'll be fun.
Love,
