110% Dedicated

Well... I'm back. But, good news! I've recently found out that I made it into the school play: Rumpybuttskin. Oh I'm sorry- Rumpelstilkskin. I'm the 1st lady, who has a couple of singing solos, and a whopping two lines. Unbelievable, considering last year I was a major character, but whatever. I'll take what I can get.

Also on my schedule is Honors Band & Honors Choir. [I'm such a music freak] For Honors Band: I had to pay $18 and tomorrow I'm going down to Eau Claire to audition for a spot.
For Honors Choir: I am an "elite" singer, who has been chosen to represent the New Richmond Middle School. I have to meet with the selected group this Sunday at the middle school, from 6:30-8:00pm. Then next Thursday, I need to practice with my section [I'm an alto] at 7:30am.

And on top of all that- I have Mononucleosis. Which unfortunately enough, makes me COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED by the end of the day.
It's a good thing I'm an easy-going, considerate, tolerating person. :)

On the bright side... my guitar-learning is going great! My wonderful, fantastic, loving parents bought me an awesome acoustic Epiphone for Christmas. I love it to DEATH! In lessons, I'm currently in the midst of learning the last string [low E], some necessary chords, and I'm supposed to be start thinking of some songs that I would like to learn how to play. It's a good thing I've been keeping a list of 40+ songs that I thought I might need sometime in the future.
Damn, I'm smart. Always thinking ahead.

Anyways, I've started a new A Capella Ashlie tradition. The Blog Lines Of Wisdom. [BLOW] <<< And oh my god, I had NO IDEA that Blog Lines Of Wisdom spelled blow. Do you honestly think I could come up with something as cool and witty as that? Well, I probably could. But that's not the point! Seriously, I had no idea how that worked out, but it did. And I'm glad.
Wow.

Today's Lines Of Wisdom:

1. Instead of having 'answers' on a math test, they should just call them 'impressions' and if you got a different 'impression', so what? Can't we all be brothers?
2. If you go flying back through time and you see somebody else flying forward into the future, it's probably best to avoid eye contact.
3. If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid looking in a mirror, because I bet that will really throw you into a panic.

Well, that's all for today.

I'LL BE BACH! [A little musical humor for ya. Hope you liked my bad pun.]
