SUCCESS!!! :) :) :)

undertakes as well as it can possibly be done, this is happiness, this is success."

So, today, I found out that I made the audition for Encore!!! I'm super excited. For anyone who actually reads this blog and doesn't know what Encore is, read the following paragraph. If you do know what it is, then feel free to skip to two paragraphs down.

So. Encore is my high school's equivalent of a show choir. (If you tell any of the current members I called it a show choir, I'll get stoned. I don't know what they want to call it, but it really is a show choir.) If you don't know what a show choir is, then it's a group that sings and dances. It's pretty legit. (If you've seen Glee or SPECTACULAR! then there you go.) If you do know what a show choir is, then it's an elephant. (Just kidding. Also, I've used the words "show choir" like seven times in this paragraph. Blegh.)

Anyway, it's a really exclusive group (only 30 people made it) and over a hundred people auditioned, so I figured I didn't really have a chance, especially when I looked at my competition. But I guess my audition was good enough, because my name is on the list.

I am filled with such incredible joy and self-satisfaction that I wish I could treat myself to cheesecake. Because it is delicious.

I... fail at blogging. But, DISNEYLAND!!!

So, obviously, this blog is late... But I wanted to wait to post it until I had a picture... And obviously, this picture is EPIC!!! I mean, we are with Winnie the Pooh in Disneyland, which is the happiest place on earth. For Real.

Seriously, the whole time was an absolute blast! We got to meet the princesses and eat Dole Whips and ride some really epic rides. (Indiana Jones ride = wonderful. Fastest ride in the park.)

Sorry, this post is going to be kind of long. Feel free to stop reading pictures and just be satisfied to know that Disneyland made me REALLY, REALLY HAPPY.

The car ride was fun, although I must admit, I kind of slept through a lot of it. And sometimes it was cold, although my blanket, _________, kept me warm.

And there were lots of giraffes.

So, you know. Disneyland. Stops time. Tell your friends.

Sorry, you knew I couldn't resist a Doctor Horrible reference.

I think I'm going to be done now. Before I random myself to death.
