Welp...

everything is settled down for now and i really want to get involved in another charity. I went looking again today and I found one that is helping poverty around the world through the youth. It is all about having the youth of america help the poverty of the world. i love that it is aimed at getting THE YOUTH involved. Sometimes it seems like kids these days really just dont care! It's sad.

i found another that is building water pipes in africa and asia so that they can get clean water to the citizens. this will also cut down on the spreading of HIV over there. This is very interesting. Not many charities aim there money at cleanning, it is mostly building. I like it!

If there are any more charities that you have heard of, that don't seem to get a lot of publicity, i would really like to know about them. Thanks!

Love
Peace

OKAY...

i have a lot to write so bear with me...

marathon day really helped us get our act together. we got a much better understanding of the show and we got it under 40 minutes. so when we took it to competition it was very good. but we still didn't make it past zone, so that sux. But it is okay, i still have senior directs.

NOW... Tarleton State University... I AM SOOOO EXCITED. I went and visited the campus this weekend and I LOVE IT!! it has so much history, and so many traditions and all-in-all i think it is going to be a nice place to spend my next 4 years. i was going to go into detail about everything but i really dont feel like typing that much right now so may be some other time.

Well seeing as i DIDN"T go into detail i don't have as much to say as i thought.
Oh well
love you guys
PEACE

"Do or do not, there is no try!"

For anyone who is interested, we raised $1068.92 for the invisible children fund and we are still goin'!!

let me put this in context for you: the whole BISD raised $796.31 for the American heart association. me and 3 of my friends got together and raised over $1000 for invisible children. now, i know this wasn't a competition, but if it was we TOTALLY schooled them.

Ivisible Children

Okay! So, quite a few years ago, in Uganda, Africa, there was this woman named Alice Lakwina. Her real name was Alice Auma she went by Lakwina because that was the name of the spirit that "possessed" her. She decided that she wanted to overthrow the Uganda government. so she started to build up an army. The Lord's resistance army (LRA) is what she called it. an army of children. At night she and her followers would abduct children, all between the ages of 4-10. She chose these children because they were young enough to be brainwashed but old enough to carry weapons. Alice brainwashed the children to become insensitive to killing. She would do this by killing and torturing other children in front of them. all the kids would be severely beaten if they cried. She was very successful. when she died a man named Joesph Kony came forward and claimed to be her cousin. (no one knows if he actually is or if he just wanted control over the army) Kony keep the LRA going. Today the army is stronger than it ever was and the kids of Uganda need our help. Every night the children who have not been abducted all walk to the local hospitals because they are too afraid to stay at home. Obviously it gets very crowded, but that doesn't matter to them because they would rather be there than any where else. The hospitals are guarded by one man with one gun. Because of everything that is going on these children are loosing education, and the Uganda government has diminished to almost nothing.

there has been a non-profit organization set up to help this problem. it is called Invisible Children. They have a documentary out on it right now. You might be wondering why i am telling this to you, right? Well, after my friends and i saw this video we decided we wanted to do something about it. We are starting a new branch off the invisible children organization at our school. we are selling shirts purses and bracelets all to help build up the government and send the kids of Uganda to school.

We are happy to announce that we have spread the word all around our school and to many of the other schools. (we heard it was already to Keller.) We are all SUPER excited about it. We are having a screening of the documentary for the public at our school this Friday, March 2nd at 7:00. We are hoping to see at least 500 people there, but with the way things are going i think we might get a lot more.

I just wanted to tell everyone what i am up to, and if you can come i would love to see you all there.

if there are any questions you can ask me or go to www.invisiblechildren.com.

Okay...

for those of you who don't know, OAP is a BIG deal here in the theatre world. it is our UIL competion play. only twenty people out of thirty-seven got into it. this is the time of the year when all the theatre kids have thier breakdowns. this is the most stressful 2 months of the year and we all strive to make it in because it is such an amazing experince. our school hasn't made it past the first round in quite a few years. it is not that we are bad, we are just in probable the best zone in the state of texas so it takes a lot to get out.

yesterday was our first rehersal and we read the script. it is an adaptation that my teacher did himself and IT IS AMAZING!!! i cannot wait to preform it. my characters name is panope and i am the comic releaf in this tragic play.

mr. ayres used to be a judge for the one act plays so i really hope that helps us advance this year. i am supper excited and i know that even if we don't advance i am going to be very proud of this show. (we haven't even started blocking and i am already very happy with it)

well i guess that gives you all a little more insite into what i am doing.

i love you all

and i will keep it posted on how it is going as we progress.

hmph...

well... being student director kind of went down the drain. which sucks! im still technical director but all im doing as the student director is cleaning the scenes. (in other words i don't actually "direct" at all) im "student advisor".


my job is good. nothing very exciting. i got my first paycheak. only 97 dollars. i only worked 15 hours though. i get my next one tomorrow. that one better be bigger! i worked twenty-four hours in just one week.


banquet and prom will be here before i know it. (and i got my favorite dress ripped right out from under my nose) (stupid jessica and us being the same person!)


WOW! my life sucks right now.

i sent in my application for tarleton 2 days ago. i dont know what im going to do if i don't get in. i have no back up school. thats the only place i want to go. ...well that and A&M, but if i can't get into tarleton then i can't get into A&M.

i want sleep!

la musical

well yesterday we had our first saturday rehersal for the musical! it was so much fun. we had to bolt 8: 8x4 platforms together upside down then leg them with 6ft legs then we had everyone there come to help flip it. it was quiet the adventure. i love set so much and i feel like i haven't done it in ages so yesterday was good.

work is going good i suppose. i don't know anyone yet so im kindof all alone. my friend jessica is supposed to start working agian next week though so thats good. i had to ask for a lot of days off because the musical is going up. i hope that my boss isn't mad about that. im giving her like two weeks notice though so she should be okay.

well i guess thats all thats going on with me right now.

PEACE
