I was lucky enough to participate in this years Utah State Junior Honor Choir under the direction of Dr. Broomhead. It was a lot of fun and I got to meet a lot of really cool people from different schools.
Dr. Broomhead is an amazing directer. He worked us hard. He made us sound good. I was really happy with him. It was a lot of hard work, but it was all worth it. He is an amazing man and I was extremely pleased to work with him.
There were a ton of people there and they were all amazing singers. There was so much talent! I was so blessed to work with so many people that were all so wonderful. They all worked very hard to do what Dr. Broomhead asked us to do.
I had a solo in one of the songs that we performed called Dancing Tree. It was really nerve racking and I wasn't sure if I could do it. I did, however. I don't know if it sounded any good. Everyone complemented me afterword, but you can never tell if they are just being polite. Dr. Broomhead seemed really pleased, so that made me feel really good. He really is a terrific guy.
It was amazing because, not only did I make a lot of new friends, but I was also reunited with one of my older friends. He moved in sixth grade and I haven't seen him since. But he was there and we were able to say hi. It was great to see him again. He was one of my best friends. We've talked since and it was really easy and fun. I was so glad that he was there.
I am so thankful that I was able to participate in this choir. The choir was amazing, the students were fun and encouraging, and everyone worked really hard. It was a wonderful experience and I will never forget it!
I got cast in our school play! I'm really excited. I'm playing one of the silly girls, the girls that are obsessed with Gaston. It should be a lot of fun. My little sister was cast as well. She is also a silly girl. It will be really fun to work with her. We've been in shows together before, but we haven't actually been on stage together much because we always have parts that are never together. It will be awesome to act with her. I think I'll be in some of the dance numbers. I love dancing on stage so that should be great. Some of my good friends were cast and I'm looking forward to acting with them. I can't wait to start rehearsals!
On Friday I auditioned for our school play, Beauty and the Beast Jr. I really hope I get in. Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite Disney shows. I love the story, the characters, and the music. It would be amazing to participate in the show. I'd like to play Belle, but so does every other girl who goes to the school. I don't think I will get her, but that's okay. I just hope I get to be in the show. I'm really missed Wizard of Oz and to be acting again would be terrific.
The auditions were really fun. There were dance auditions and singing auditions. I liked the dance auditions better, just because there were so many people there. When I dance, I feel free and happy. I think I did a pretty good job with my dance audition.
The singing auditions were harder. There were only about five people in the room and it was really quiet. I sang Part of That World from The Little Mermaid. I did have fun singing it and I think that it went pretty well. It was just nerve racking.
So, I hope I get in! It would be tons of fun if I did! Crossing my fingers!

Now that is has been over for months, I just wanted to say that I had a ton of fun doing the Wizard of Oz. I want to thank those people, even if they never read this, who helped me come out of my shell and enjoy the play. I wouldn't have had so much fun without you! It was a life changing experience! I made a lot of friends and meet many wonderful people. My whole family was in it and I got to spend quality time with each of them. I got to know them all better. Misty, my dog, played Toto. It was amazing having her there with us every night. I loved seeing her on stage. She's such a little Drama Queen! :) I was able to dance and sing and just all around enjoy myself. I learned so much doing this play. It's an experience I won't forget! Thanks to everyone who participated and made it possible for this show to happen. Especially my parents! <3!!
