I finished The Help by Kathryn Stockett last night. So. Good. That was her first novel, too. Someday, I want to be that good. The movie was super fantastic, too, by the way. I recommend both. Sincerely.
I want to start practicing and working on my writing but I can never think of stories to write about. Or, I do think of them, ones that sound really awesome, only for me to read a book and realize that that book is the same plot just ten times better. Sigh.
Anyways, I don't think I've updated you very recently. Spring break of my senior year, I AM GOING TO SPAIN! Yes, sir, you heard me right, Spain! I'm going to be able to experience an entirely new culture and immerse myself in a language I've been learning since seventh grade. I am so excited. Seriously. Ah, I'll keep you updated on that.
Also, the first quarter just ended and I have no idea how that happened. I remember the first day of school like it was just a few days ago... but I don't really mind. Truthfully, I just want to graduate and move to Provo and get on with my life. High school seems so pointless to me. The people are so immature, especially the boys; the drama is so petty; the days are endless and the years are long. I just want out. Next year, I might end up having to take four AP classes which I can already tell is going to kill me. I shouldn't be focusing on that, though.
Piano right now is like the one thing that calms me. I'm actually getting pretty good, I think. I got to the level two book of Alfred's Adult Course..something like that. I really like it. I wish I hadn't quit when I was younger.. it makes me realize how good I could've been. But, I can't take that back, and, now, the only thing to do is learn while I can. Piano class is also basically my favorite...and after this semester, I'm going to get lessons from a sister in my ward. Excited :)
