Rock What Ya Got!

So it's finally come and gone once again. Soundwave that is...

Soundwave is an all-women's show choir group at my school. Every year, our shows are in January and then we go around the South to compete against various groups. As for me, I'm in love with Soundwave. Now that's not so easy to say during practices when we are dancing for 2 hours straight but the work really does pay off in the end! Singing and dancing are two of my favorite things in this world. Therefore, it's kind of inevitable that this program would be so dear to me. However, it's not just the singing and dancing and music. It's the people. I have found a unity with these girls that is very rare. Some of them, I consider sisters. Last night, our director, Mr. Ellis, made us all gather in a circle and say one thing that either we hoped for for Soundwave, were thankful for from Soundwave, or any other words of encouragement. As we went around the room, people had different things to say. One thing that everyone in the room referred to was the people. It was just a really good time. It definitely made me thankful for the family group that God has blessed me with through Soundwave.

Now competition! 2 weeks away! Watch out B'ham!

Slightly Overdue...

So it has been brought to my attention by my best friend that I haven't blogged since Christmas! Shame on me! So here it is...slightly overdue might I add.
New Year's Eve was a great  night. I went to Formal, a dance through my school. It's just a night of dancing, big band music, a lot of food, friends, and fun. I look forward to it every year. This year we had a dinner at my friend Lauren's house, rode to Formal in a limo, had a blast at the dance, counted down to 2011, and went back to my house for a post-formal breakfast. Afterwards, four of my best friends spent the night and we stayed up until 5 in the  morning. It was a great night!
The New Year has also brought a busy schedule! AKA- Showchoir! Soundwave prime-time is during the month of January and we are currently having our shows! Our last one is tonight! It will be sad but I'll be relieved to have it off my plate! In February, the show choirs are going to Birmingham to compete against other show choirs from the South. Birmingham is my absolute place ever and competition is so much fun! The two of these added together equals great excitement for me! It's hard to believe that it's that time already but here we go! Let's do this thing! Pics of Soundwave to come soon!
Again, sorry for being such a blogging slacker! Once my schedule slows down I will be sure to pick up the creative juices, keyboard, and pictures and become a dedicated blogger! Ta ta, friends!
