Ok, ok, ok! i'm sorry! I haven't posted in forever and I feel awful about it... uhm, I guess you could say "not alot has changed" since my last post... The family reunion was amazing, I've been on break at the studio, room still isn't 100% finished, youth group started and I'm SOOO excited about my small group (!), I've gotten really ridiculously good at nail art, uhm... I think that's mostly it. figured out some college stuff. Life's pretty boring lately...

Went shopping with mom today. Had so much fun, and got some of the stuff I need for the pageant =] I'm really getting excited, but feeling a desperate need to hit the gym and get in shape! 42 days to go! =]

I'M TEACHING MY OWN CLASS! They gave me a Friday hip-hop class to teach at the studio =D i'm SO excited! And I'm in Elite (shocker?)!! I'm so ready for break to end, but at the same time i have this small desire to never go back... I love dance, I love the Savelli's, I just feel like it's taking over my life and the demands are getting too high. I know I only feel this way because i've been on break and gotten fat and lazy, so next week I wont feel this at all, but it just bums me out, ya know?

wow! just came across a poem I wrote a little less than a year. I forgot how powerful it was and how much it meant to me;


I know just how this story goes,
I've lived this life before.
But even so, there's something different,
something new and I feel free.
Maybe it's the coauthor, but baby,
I really think it's me.

We dance this dance, I know the steps well
But mix it up for me.
You're learning for the first time
just how to move your feet,
but can you mix it up for me?

I've heard that line before,
but the words are new to your lips
I'll choose to trust your innocence,
if you choose to trust my sins
And maybe through our unique situation
we'll end up falling in love
but baby tonight I just wanna dance with you,
so pretend it's all we get

Let's dance our dance, that no one else knows,
and be happy simply to move
perfection is achieved by practice,
so let's be sure that's what we dont do
This messy choreography pleases me more than you know
and maybe I'll end up loving you,
but only if I choose so


My God! I wish I could still write like that! I wish I had a reason to write like that!  I wish I still felt like that, most of all. Someday...

For now it's off to bed. I'm well exhausted from shopping and several hours skyping my lovely JM <3 Goodnight, world!

Yesterday was Father's Day, so I skipped church and intended on making daddy breakfast and gardening with him. Nobody woke me up and I didn't have an alarm set, so I slept until 12. Whoops... But I did get to spend time with him outside playing with the chickens <3 I think he had a good day!

After spending some time with mi padre, I went to a musical with Molly, Will, and Jon. I had such a blast! The musical, "Next to Normal", was phenomenal and it was just nice to spend time with friends doing something other than watching movies at home or going to Crocker Park... When we got there we were bombarded by ushers trying to take pictures sponsored by KeyBank, and so we gave in. However they failed to give us time to organize ourselves, so we ended up with a picture where Molly looks like she doesn't want to be there, Will kinda just looks like he's thinking "chill like a turtle, chill like a turtle, chill like a turtle", I look like a normal happy person, and Jon managed to photobomb our own pic! I LOVE IT! I think it's hilarious, especially since it's got a "Next to Normal" banner underneath.

After the musical we sat in molly's car eating cold Chuck E. Cheese pizza while we waited for traffic to slow down so we could get out. It was delicious. Then we went back to her place, played a few games a pool, and then took the boys home. I spent the night at her place, so we played a few games of Just Dance 2 and Mario Carts. All in all it was a great night =]

Got up at 630 or something like that and molly took me home. It was so foggy I was sure the zombie apocalypse was about to occur, but it didn't. So I went back to bed at home. At some point my I thought someone was breaking into the house, so I did the logical thing and armed myself for a fight to the death with a nail file, ventured downstairs quietly, peeked around corners, and discovered it was just my sister... I gotta admit, I was somewhat disappointed. But hey, at least I've still got a usable nail file! =D

I'm off to cardio and then having a private (I think?) Kung-Fu lesson with Brad and I might get some open studio time in, soooo, ttyl! <3

P.S.
Pageant stuff is going well =] Got my papers all filled out, gonna send them in next week and go for sponsor visits soon.

Sooooo here's some news; I'm an official contestant in the Miss Ohio Teen Pageant this year. AHH! The above pictures was my application picture. Just was browsin' the interwebs one day and was like "hey, lookie at that" and decided oh a whim "alright, let's submit an application and see what happens" just kinda cause i felt like it, and BAM! I'm in. Sooo now I get to write sponsor letters, dye my hair back to normal (I'm sad about that =[ I JUST got it green again!), fill out tons of paper work, and get my wardrobe.

I'm not too concerned about my wardrobe right now since it's not even until October, I just wanna get the registration and funds raised for this thing first cause i have plenty of time for shopping =D All I know is it'll be fun, and I'm making sure Monica is with me when we shop!

Speaking of Monica; I LOVE HER! Met her on wednesday (finally!) and it was really great =] We opened the door and started SCREAMING at the same pitch for the exact same amount of time xD We're always on the same page and say the same thing at the same time. If ever I was meant to have a best friend, it's her. Mike has done well, I'm quite proud of him =]

I had a private lesson today for ballet =D I LOVE when that happens! I feel like it's so much more productive cause certain people -cough- aren't talking the whole friggin' class wasting my time. And Jo said three nice things;

1) "I wouldn't mind being stuck in a room with you for a few hours... I like you"

2) "Well yay, you get a private lesson. I like giving private lessons to good students like you"

3) "next year, you're going to be amazing! You're just gonna be really great because you're working hard and progressing quickly."

I was sooo happy to hear those! I know she likes me and that is really important to me since she's my teacher and I see her 6 days a week and spend hours on end with her. I think someday we're going to get along REALLY well, and have a GREAT understanding of each other. =]

That's that for now, I suppose...
