Date... July 3, 2010

Starting time... 8:50 am

Mood...ready to help coach the clinic!!

Outside my window...Dad watering the plants outside.

I'm thinking...that I don't want to go shopping for furniture today.

I'm currently reading...really nothing, actually.

I'm listening to...Umm...music from Jo's playlist (her blog is in another tab)...

I'm wearing...a tie-dye FLST shirt, black shorts, and a brown sweatshirt

I'm looking forward to...Umm....

I'm hoping...that shopping won't take too long...

Yesterday, I...had the funnest time helping coach the 7/8-yr.-olds.

I'm hungry for...umm...maybe something sweet...

The song stuck inside my head is..."Concertino" by C. Charminade

I love... relays!

I loathe...when people bend their knees too much when they do dolphin kick

This week, my goal is...I'll think about it...

Did I meet last week's goal?...YES!

Ending time...8:55 am

A new singing group!

Gab and I were talking in bed one night and were trying to come up with some names for the singing group we're going to start...hopefully. :) We came up with some wonderfully creative names. (In other words, started taking the names of artists and changed them around a little) Here's what we came up with (first is the real name, and then is our version):

Tenth Avenue North - Tenth Avenue South (creative, right?)

Jason Gray - Jason Blue

Francesca Battistelli - Francesca Ba-spaghetti

Addison Road - Madison Street

The Afters - The Befores

Third Day - Fourth Day

MercyMe - MercyYou

Kutless - Carcass (scary...)

Remedy Drive - Medicine Street

Matthew West - Matthew East

Mike's Chair - Vivi's Seat (Haha...)

Newworldson - Oldworldson

Matt Maher - Matt TheCar (Umm....)

So...yeah. Prepare to hear any of these names in the news in a couple of years when we're famous.

There were also a couple other names we thought of, but we forgot them. We also tried to think of names for some other artists, but they didn't...really...work...out...:P

WATCH THIS!

My flute teacher just gave me this piece to work on ("Concertino" by C. Chaminade.). By the way, the girl is not a random girl off of YouTube. It's SAM. She's also a student of my flute teacher, is 2nd chair in the Youth Orchestra (I think...there are 3), won the YOCA concerto competition thingy, and is a REALLY GREAT flutist. Because she won the competition, she's playing with the youth orchestra in this movie; and now I get to learn it! I LOVE it!! It does stop quite a few times, but it's SO GOOD.
