Best Day EVER!!!!

Alright, today might not have been my best day ever, but it sure comes close.

Seminary ended yesterday so I got to sleep in. During seminary I have to wake up at 6:00, so of course the day I get to sleep in, I wake up at.....6:00! But, it was a fantastic thing, I felt refreshed and just happy with the world.

Another thing that happened yesterday is Jazzco tryouts ended. Alright well I guess I have to explain the choirs at my school before this will make sense. There is Concert Choir which anyone can join, no audition is required. After that is Treble Choir, the girl's audition choir. Then there is Symphonic Choir, the really good SATB choir. There are also two ensembles, SAGE and Jazzco. To tryout for SAGE you have to first be in at least treble choir. To be in Jazzco (<- our equivalent of Madrigals) you have to be in Symphonic. Okay, so back to Jazzco tryouts. I've been in Treble Choir since I moved here, which is fine because I know I'm not the best singer. We have to re-audition at the end of each year and I found out this week that I'll be in Symphonic next year!!!!! :D

Jazzco tryouts started Monday, and my friends and Kim convinced me to go. I was really nervous because only the best of the best make it into Jazzco. They sing most of their songs a Capella and I've always admired them. So I tried out and I was pretty sure I didn't do terrible, so I was proud of myself for trying.

So this morning when I get to school, already in a fantastic mood, I find out I made Jazzco!!!!

I didn't have to go to any classes today because it was the annual trash clean up day, so different classes spread out around town and cleaned up. After we finished that, we basically got to relax and do what we wanted. I went to the movie in the auditorium (dr. horrible's sing-a-long blog) and played chess.

So after school, I was still in a fantastic mood.

Then Kim and I went to our friend Tyler's house and watched Kim play Zelda on the Nintendo64.

Then I went to McDonald's, yay McDonald's!!!!! Next was YW's.

Here comes the best part.

We recognized some teachers for our activity and then Kim and I headed to the baptism that was going on and I got to hang out with some little kids that I love in our ward. I've babysat them a few times so they're comfortable around me now.

A little boy was pretending like he was going to push me, just having fun, and the 5-year old in the family that I babysit yelled "DON'T!!! SHE'S MY BABYSITTER!!!!"

That just touched my heart. That little boy did and said a lot of things tonight that just made me feel loved, but that was my favorite. :D

Anyways, it's been a good day :)
