End of the year!

Hey all,

Lots has happened in the last 2 months. What with salsa dancing and concerts galore, I haven't have a lot of time on my hands.

November 20 was our choir fundraiser for school where a bunch of people performed and it was a great night. Afterwards, some of us went out salsa dancing at a local club and it was a lot of fun. They have free lessons from 9:30-10pm and open the dance floor until about 1am. So much fun! I went a few times with my favourite Mexican, and a bunch of other friends and we tore up the dance floor. Possibly more dancing in the new year.
A week later, we had our school choir concert where I ended up with two solos and I was really happy about it. Apart from messing up on my first note, I think it went really well.

Our Christmas program for church was on the 13th and though we had a few people missing, we managed to pull it off wonderfully. We got lots of compliments on the performances and I was pretty happy with it. Last week we had the stake choral festival where I sang with the stake choir and my friend Jocelyn and I sang a duet. I was a good night. I then had a bunch of exams and lots of studying but I managed to somehow pull it off. I've passed all my classes for the semester and am looking forward to the new year!

I flew home from Alberta on the 23rd and got in in the evening. I almost missed my flight, what with the Christmas crowds at the airport, but thanks to a number of helpful strangers I managed to jump the line and get on my flight in time. Thank goodness. The next few days was spent baking, socializing, opening presents, eating and playing games with family and friends. It was some good times.









As for this week, it's the last few days of 2009 and I plan on spending it with my friends and family. I've got a number of new years resolutions that I need to keep and I am excited for the new start. I'm also planning to change the title and quote of my blog so keep posted!

Until next year!
