Ingrid, recital, prom, life, and singing!

First off, for those of you who have been worried about me... I no longer need to use an inhaler and have had no scary incidents for a really long time. Yay :).
Now, I'm gonna do this in order (pshh, like I ever do what I say). So recital came first. My voice recital... was err... Interesting to say the least. It's pretty embarrassing when you forget your lyrics. I'm actually so embarrassed that I haven't listened to the recording yet. Before the recital, my favorite dress's zipper broke. I couldn't get into or out of it. So Dad had to rip it open. :(

R.I.P.
I happened to drink a lot of water that day for some reason. 16 cups in less than 6 hours. That meant I had to pee... A lot. While I was gone, these lovely ladies took my phone.
Cute right?

Afterwards, INGRID. OH HECK YES. She is a beautiful human being. She's also better live. And I love her so much. Ingrid is so talented and so funny. I wish I could be like her. Her opening band, Harper Blynn was pretty great. I got their album and got their autographs!
LOOK AT THAT SIGN.

WAITING.

Harper Blynn
OH EM GEE
YES.
Harper Blynn
LOOK.
Last of all, I really didn't expect to go to prom. I mean, I already went last year and I'm kind of a goody two-shoes. So the whole thing started like this, I was home practicing my piano like a good little kid. Dakota  somehow got my number and texted me asking me where I lived and such. At this point, I got super suspicious. Howard also asked if I was home, but I thought nothing of it because he was probably just looking for food (the usual). But then, I believe Jonny asked too. So I was like urrr. Then Dakota told me that something was going to happen and that it was going to be fine. I had to leave to Grandma and Grandpa's house so I was like I'm leaving soon to avoid an awkward, "I HAVE TO GO!" thing. While I was over there, everyone was still acting super weird. Then the doorbell rang, and we all thought it was Chu Hai's friend. The person asked for me, and I was like "huh?" He then opened a Domino's pizza box, gave me a rose, and asked me to prom! That is the story of how I got asked to prom! It was weird though because Howard doesn't even know this person! He knew because of Duy the day of. Duy and Howard helped him ask me! Especially since they both know where my grandparents live. I already ate dinner so Howard ate like the whole pizza.... By himself... Now to reveal the person! DANIEL LLAMAS! My XC/cookie buddy-roo! Hahaha :)


It took me a while to get it...
I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THE SINGING PART OF MY BLOG (not recital). I'm singing in Student Spotlight tomorrow! I'm singing The Way You Look Tonight! (I think of you when I sing this Mr. Secret Person who doesn't even read my blog...*COUGH COUGH ADAM LEVINE WHO SANG THIS SONG ON A SOUNTRACK) Also, it was hilarious because Alviar and I had a discussion about who was the bigger Maroon 5 fan. I won and she was like woah. :)

P.S. I got a haircut.

SOUNDER'S GAME! WOOHOO.


On Saturday, I went to my first Sounder's game! IT WAS SO AMAZING. I wish I could play soccer. Too bad I had to be born with two left feet (I'm right-footed, in case you're wondering). Sounder's won against Colorado 1-0! It was so fantastic! I am dying to go again! Soccer players are so hot. So are soccer fans. Yups. Carrying Karina up stairs is pretty sucky though. My mom isn't strong enough to carry her up so many stairs and my dad was looking for parking. Woohoo! We went with Simon, Eric, their dad, Cindy, and Ivan's family. It was like a sea of green. Pretty intense. After the game, we walked around Seattle and it was still a wave of green everywhere. Then we had a BBQ at Simon and Eric's house. I got to walk a dog for the first time in my life! Pretty exciting! I love Oscar! I did this while walking with Karina and Karina learned how to pee like a male dog... Other than freaking out about the recital on Saturday, life has been pretty great! No homework :). In about 9 minutes, The Voice is on! I'M SO EXCITED. MAROON 5 IS SINGING THEIR NEW SINGLE <333!
Oh yeah, I signed up for New Market just now! Woohoo! So excited. Then Ingrid is on Sat. EEEEEKKKKKK. Words cannot describe how excited I am to see her. She's one of my idols. I freaking love her. With a burning passion.

I love to blog~ (Said in a sing-songy way)

SPRING.
Spring Break! Alas, it is ending soon. How depressing. It's such a nice day out though! Dad took the week off to spend time with his youngins so we did a lot of random stuff. Played lots of cards, went downtown a few times, went to Tacoma, and such. I went swing dancing at the Eagles Ballroom with Kadie, Madi, Bri, and Jonny! Bri's car died twice! Scary! Then on Wednesday, I went to Madi's birthday party. Today we went to Farmer's Market and Starbucks. Woohoo! NOOOO, break is ending :(. I've been spending lots of time with music and reading the AP World History study guide thing.

DASH bus!

My sister's faces are the best.

Adventure!
Someone's pet rooster...
Look what came in the mail...


I just got a journal for writing down hopes, dreams, inspirations, and such!
Maybe this will help me be a song writer...
