Last Sunday, the Suels (http://teamsuel.blogspot.com) came to our church one last time before they leave for Africa. It was great to see them again, and don't forget to be praying for them and their ministry!
As for this week, Monday is finally the start of my Spring Break, so while everyone's at school, I've basically been at home relaxing. Unfortunately, I've also been sick with a cold, but I'm feeling much better today.
On Tuesday, I had a guitar lesson and finally learned the rest of "Whispers in the Dark" by Skillet. Now, I know all the notes--I just have to practice them! I promise I'll put up a video as soon as I can so you can hear some of it! I've also been playing guitar at church as some of you have seen. Right now, I'm playing rhythm on the acoustic, but we now have a distortion pedal for my electric, so all we need is a rhythm guitar player so I can start playing Cooper (FYI, I decided to name my guitar "Cooper" after John and Korey Cooper from Skillet!).
By the way, I also received some cool letters in the mail. One of them (or more like four of them) was the comments from the judges of the songwriting contest that I entered last year. To be honest, they weren't as mean as I thought they would be, haha! My average grade was about a "7," while they said that "8" means great, so I guess I'm getting there! I sent them some of my old songs. To hear my new songs, visit me on YouTube (http://youtube.com/distortionxoverdrive).
Another cool letter was my report card from Abeka. I calculated my GPA...and I did it! I'm 4.0! WOO HOO! (Okay, nevermind. I calculated it wrong and actually it's still 3.8. But that's still good so, still, WOO HOO!)
As I write this, today is Wednesday. My mom and I did spa this morning, and it was fun. Right now, all I smell are herbs and cinnamon.
Tomorrow, Thursday, my dad took the day off and is planning on taking me to a tour of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (the place where they make money!!!). There, we will take a 45-minute tour and find out how inflation works. ;)
On Friday, I don't know what I'm going to do.
On Saturday, I'm going to Six Flags with my friends Grace and Bianca. We're going to ride rides and top the night off with Decyfer Down, Red, and Skillet! Great, great stuff.
So that's how I've been. And one more thing...
That's enough rambling about me. What's been going on with YOU??

Hi, today was the last weekday of Spring Break. I finished all my duties in the morning, then in the afternoon I decided to write a story about a princess, but I got bored so I deleted it. Yeah, that's what I did today. :P
