my class could be called the class of change. every school year there is big change in that year or the year after us. so we leave before the change. in elementary school: Sunrise got a huge new playground that all the 6th graders earned money for and we didn't even get to play on it. in middle school: the Student Council had as many members as people that ran i mean they don't wanna hurt anyone's feelings anymore but they let everyone that applied on. before they had a set about but Mrs. Jensen (i think) decided that she didn't want anyone to feel bad. (this one may be for the good but...) in high school:  we got rid of mens and womens week the year we came.   they are having Corner Canyon opening our senior year.  We have to go to school with freshmen our senior year.  There isn't anymore Spirit Bowl games the year we came.  and i feel like there are a few more.. but i don't like it everything changes around me. and i know change in...

slacking i know i know. i'm sorry. but sunday's are just crazy days you know how most people just say they laid down and did nothing. well i don't have sunday's like those! today was an emotional day. (like the rest of this week) i have just been feeling the holy ghost so much this week its crazy. and when i feel the holy ghost i cry. but today was nicole sousa's farewell.. this girl is so amazing and i look up to her so much! she's been in my ward the longest and has been that girl who always went to activities, and showed up to church with her family or with out. she has been the one to always share thoughts and conduct on wednesday night. she is amazing and one of the few people that i look up to. she is amazing and has such a strong testimony in the church. although it was hard for her to always come, it has inspired me. even though i don't go to YW a lot lately because of mission call openings and band preformances and stuff to support my friends. i...

guys last night was the night 16 kids futures can change in an instant...  its in auguration night! it started off with the cheerleaders and to be honest i don't really remember who all made it so i don't wanna put names then forget someone that would be bad! but the girls that made it are so amazing! and i'm so glad for them all! :) then we got down to business! they announced that the new AVO was Nate Teahan!! That is awesome, he will do amazing because have you seen his videos? they are awesome! and having Hunter Hansen's poster to get him through the year will really help him! :) congrats nate! next we have Rocky Evans as your new Chief of Activities! This kid, he is the sweetest kid and even though he is pretty quiet when he does talk they are words of wisdom! haha congrats rocky i can't wait to see what next year brings for us with you in charge! attorney general: this kid.. i don't even know what to say he is so amazing at football, being a frie...

so for sign language today we have to be deaf. that means we can't hear and you can't sign so we are on our own for finding a way to communicate! when i walked into first period i spaced that it was silent day and cassidy featherstone greets me with her ear plugs in.. what a cute girl cause she had an extra pair for me. i don't get how deaf people can go through the day with hearing people because 1. having the ear plugs in was nice because i couldn't hear all the annoying things i usually would. like the annoying kids in my computer tech class and paper ripping. its nice to kind of have a break from that but paying attention in class was kind of hard especially when you are taking notes the whole class period in history and you don't really know what is going on. but its terrible because you can't hear your friends talking. (even though i take 5 minute breaks in the halls and talk because i can't go a whole day without talking its impossible..but real...

Dear Alta: Today was a big day i mean the SBO finalists totally made a fool of themselves and the cheerleaders did amazing! Everyone deserves a round of applause. Bridger for walking in heels better than some DC girls. Trip for having the song that got stuck in the whole schools head. The freshman girls that came to tryout in front of the school. Lexi Baxter for being Lexi Baxter i mean the worm, her spin, her shake..it was all A+ work :) Jessica Smith for being the only cheerleader to smile the whole time.

so you know how i would always complain like i would always have something new and i was just the negative nelly of the crowd...well i'm not that way anymore because looking back its good i didn't get everything it wanted! For one thing..cheer i wanted cheer more than life itself i worked hard i went to cheer everyweek and tryouts came around and i learned the cheer and thought i did amazing. apparently i wasn't good enough for them when i was a freshman so i complained and cried and hated on the cheerleaders and bashed and was the biggest brat ever!  then sophomore year rolled around and i tried out again. i stayed up late, i watched it in class, the cheer song was the only song i played on my ipod for two days until judge tryouts. at judge try outs i remember perfectly my group said they would practice a few minutes before they went in with me but they never came. then all of a sudden 57 was called..that was my number. i didn't know what to do so i went in there. ...
