Parties Sparkled, Flowers Bloomed, and Golf Balls Zoomed in April.

 Whole School Mass
       In April I got to celebrate the final whole school mass of the year. This mass was so special as it was my last mass with the entire school. After the Eucharist was presented the choir sang everyone's favorite songs, "Reckless Love" and "Oceans!" It was so amazing because everyone was singing and looking at each other with lots of love! It was surreal, a very special moment to be in. I absolutely loved it! Later that day my friend and I took photos with the vivid blooming pink trees! They were gorgeous!





Prom
       April means Prom, so obviously April was Prom. Prom is generally overrated, however it is fun!
       This past year, I joined my friends and had a great time! We began the day by going to the nail salon and getting our nails painted. I had never been to a traditional nail salon before, so it was interesting. The nail technician put some weird hot rock on my arm which hurt, so she thankfully took it off. I also sat at the drying center for like an hour wondering when my nails would be dry meanwhile the other ladies popped over and left!
         Afterwards we got lunch at Village Inn and went over to my friend's house. At her house we received a tour and just hung out with each other. She had a cute dinosaur and an adorable window seat! We had the weirdest conversation with her mom and her brother as he was leaving. We eventually ate dinner and got ready. I had my dress and my friends did my hair and makeup because I don't know how to do either. My friend's mom helped too and asked us all about boys! After hours of getting ready we were short on time and took a few pictures and zoomed! We arrived 40 minutes late, but the teachers all know us, so it was fine.
         This past year the theme was The Great Gatsby! There weren't many decorations except a bar that was already at the venue. But, I loved hoping between people and saying hi to everyone! That's my favorite part because I had the most fun little conversations and everyone is sparkly and complimenting each other, you feel so loved! I danced too and had a ball even though the DJ was playing the same song. After an hour and a half it was over, so we headed to my other friend's house.
        On the way to her house we stopped at King Soopers to get ice cream and snacks. We arrived at her house and watched movies. In the morning we ate ice cream for breakfast and did Table Topics, my favorite! I eventually got home from a fun day!




Golf
I golfed again with my alma mater and had fun! I actually was pretty good and had improved a lot! Golf is always fun for me! This year was much easier because my bag didn't weigh 30 pounds because of  shoes I forget in there. I enjoy golf which is interesting, because I know I'm not playing for a scholarship or anything, so I don't care very much about what happens. I saw a pheasant at one of the golf courses! I was so intrigued, I just wanted to see it more! I love riding on the golf carts too!





Friends
       Even though the year was coming to an end, friendships did not! In classes and stuff I got to know much more about my classmates. We would giggle and tell stories to each other whether it was about awful proms, socialism, boys, and whatever else we could think of! Some of my favorite conversations happened in April and it was just so much fun talking!

Barbecue Bonanza!
        At the end of senior year when about everyone has their college and life figured out there is a barbecue. We all wear our college shirts and bring baked goods while teachers cook! And of course, we take pictures!
Sisters by Chance, Friends by Chance


Dog the Coyote
      We had a running joke in school about our decoy coyote, Dog and Martha the Goose, so I just thought it was funny when Dog the Coyote fell over and earlier I saw Martha on a box.

Poor Dog the Coyote!
Good Morning Martha!
April was amazing and everything was so fabulous!

20 Activities for 20 year Olds

By
Good Morning Family and Friends! Recently I have been incredibly bored, hopefully my online classes will entertain me more. I have previously stated that I wasn’t practicing social distancing or whatever, however my mom has been making me stay inside more often and now Colorado is on lockdown. I looked up activities for 20 year olds and didn’t find anything, I guess people make these lists for stay at home moms with young children. So, I decided to make my own list for you, the audience, if you’re bored (which if you’re reading this you probably are) and looking for something to do. Read Woah, how original...read. I don’t read for pleasure often. In the summer I read The Great Gatsby  and I usually read one of Father Greg Boyle’s books some other time in the year. I also read my Vogue magazines. Two books and a magazine isn’t that much. However, since there is more time to do stuff, I figured I could read more. My brother gave me The Princess Bride to read, I’ve read a lit...

Major Life Advice

By
Recently during class I was giving an acquaintance/friend advice after being asked "How am I so happy?" and another acquaintance/friend wanted me to begin as she thought this was very important. Today I want to share part of a book (google doc) that I've been writing throughout the years that is full of advice I have received and found. Today is the Best Day of My Life This may sound crazy, but it's true, everyday is the best day of your life because you never know when life will end. I learned this from my dad who even thought it was crazy when he heard it from his friend. This advice has helped me look at the positive in every day things. For example in high school I didn't enjoy waking up around 4 am for swim practice, but when I dad told me this advice, I started thinking about it began enjoying early mornings. How lucky was I to do what I love, be awake before anyone else, talk to my friends, and laugh endlessly before the sun rose? So lucky and as ...

What I've Learned in College: End of Freshman Year Fun part 2

By
Continued from Part 1 8.Cowboys are Real Cowboys are typically seen as people who used to live in the Wild West years and years ago. I honestly think that my grandfather was one of the last American cowboys. While, I wills till continue to this this, I have learned that cowboys are still real! Every once in a while, I will see an old man sporting leather cowboy boots, a blue pair of Wrangler jeans, a button down shirt, a weathered, leather belt, a leather vest, a cowboy hat, a grown out beard, and skin weathered and tan like the leather. I didn’t think people still dressed like this besides for show! This is someone’s real life outfit! I am always astonished to see people like this because I don’t see them regularly. They look like their straight off a horse in ye old west! Students even wear cowboy boots daily! It’s something else. 9. People still pressure you. I don't drink for multiple reasons, and I was under the impression that people don't pressure people i...
