On Saturday, someone for Center Street Musical Theatre called with results. It was so scary when I saw on the caller ID who it was. But good news, I made it! I am so excited, I was shaking for like a whole half hour after I hung up. (That was from being nervous too.) But I finally made it in a show! My first one ever! Yay! :) (Sydney, if you read this, tell me if you made it!)
A couple hours after that my whole family went to my grandparent's house to celebrate my birthday and my grandpa's birthday. (His is the same day as mine.) We had dinner and cake and ice cream and opened gifts. My grandparents gave me this awesome bracelet that has the YW values on it. And it's so much more awesome just because of who gave it to me.

My birthday (20 Sept.)
School was pretty usual and pretty boring. My friends sang Happy Birthday at lunch. They sung it in the most ugly fashion that they could. 'Twas interesting. My ears were ringing afterwards. :)
After school I discovered a banana chair hidden under my quilt on my bed. Banana chairs are so awesome! Sis. Grover also brought over a gift. It was a purple shirt, but it's really tight. It makes me sad because I really want to wear it! And it was so thoughtful of her to remember my birthday when she's not even my leader anymore. Janessa also gave me a journal, pens, and tape. The tape was the only surprise, haha.
At 4:12, Mom drove everyone in my family to Springville. She dropped Clint and Janessa off at Game Stop/Wal Mart and then me at voice lessons. While I was in voice lessons she went to pick up Sydney D.
My lesson was really fun.
After my lesson we picked up Janessa and Clint and then drove to my house.
We had a few minutes so I ate a toast sandwich and then Sydney and I walked to the theater. We were like perfectly ontime. Sweetness.
The callbacks were pretty lame (but good). Only the younger kids sang, the only thing Sydney and I did was stand on stage and be compared with the other actors. At least we didn't have to sing. That would have been a fiery disaster...
After the callbacks we walked back to my house and just sat around and talked and stuff for about an hour when Sydney's mom came to pick her up. Then I watched House. I also opened my last gift. It was my journal Compano and House: Season 1 DVD. How cool is that? I opened House while watching House.

Update on the weekend (15-17 Sept.)
On Thursday evening, Hannah called. It turns out she was with Jenna and they were like 2 blocks from my house. So they came over and they wanted me to go to one of their houses for a slumber party. But my dad said I could only do one sleepover. Either one tonight or one tomorrow and I had already been planning something for Friday night. So we decided that I have a birthday sleepover thingy on Friday. My dad said that would work. :)
So on Friday I got a hold of everyone. At like 4 PM Sydney D. came over and we went online and burned some CDs, watched TV, and did other random stuff. In the evening we watched Jekyll and Hyde. At like 7:30 I called Hannah and although she said that she could come a few hours ago, her brother told me that she had went to a play or something. ok??? Then I called Jenna but she was feeling sick. Everyone else besides that had cancelled too before that. At least they called. I don't blame them at all though because yeah, it was really short notice. But for Hannah and Jenna, it was partly their idea and had already agreed that it would be a good idea.
So slumber party turned into a sleepover with Sydney, which is what I had been planning for anyway. So it was all good.
After J&H we watched TV. I fell asleep while Sydney was still watching weird cartoons. She stayed up like 2 hours longer than me. (Lucky homeschooled person.)
On Saturday we woke up and made pancakes for breakfast and then worked on songs for our auditions and did random stuff.
At 12:50 I drove us to the theater. We filled out paper thingies and then it go really nervousing. So we let lots of people pass us and we played cards. Drama people are weird. One guy stole one card and asked what we would do if he just walked off and said nothing. Sydney replied with something like: "I'd beat you to a bloody pulp." And then I think the same guy came back and made a noise and stuck his finger in my ear. What the randomness?
Anyways...
My audition was pretty crappy, but they asked me to come back for dancing auditions of Monday at 8 PM. Pretty sweet. I decided that I liked their auditioning because it wasn't that scary. The environment wasn't that stressful.
Sydney made callbacks too, but she didn't even really want to be in this musical. I guess it depends if her mom decides she wants to drive her to Provo basically everyday to practices.
After that we went home and did more random stuff until Sydney's mom came to pick her up.

Ward boundries re-aligned
Two Sundays ago they announced in our sacrament meeting that a plan had been approved to re-align the ward boundries within our stake. They hadn't warned us about this before and it was a complete surprise. They wouldn't tell us about the new boundries, they wanted us to go to a meeting later that evening.
Curiosity got the better of me and I went to the meeting with Janessa. I am now in the Peak 3rd Ward. The stake is the same except a few people from the Bonneville stake were added, except they changed the name of our stake.
Our first meeting with our new wards was just this last Sunday. There's a lot of people that bug me in our ward but also a lot of really cool people that I am so glad are in my ward. I'm going to try to get to know the people that bug me better... It was weird because instead of two young men passing the sacrament with lots of older men, there were actually enough young men to have all young men pass the sacrament. I also go really annoyed because there we lots of screaming kids... GRRR, they are so annoying!
So far I'm ok with the change. I can do this, it will work. I think it will be better to have more families and actually have some youth. I really really miss lots of people in my old ward though. :( We have twelve young women now instead of five. I probably know most of them but I haven't really met them all yet so I'm not sure who they are. It's going to be annoying though because two of Clint's best friends are in our ward. One is not so bad, the other is completely dissrespectful and completely annoying. Maybe Clint will go to church more, but it most likely won't be for the right reason. Hopefully he gets some good teachers that keep him in line and will maybe show him what the purpose of church is.
