Honor Chior
This year I had honor chior again, it was so much fun! We had to wake up at 5:15 in order to be at the bus on time at 6:00. It was funny a bunch of the girls brought with them these huge suit cases, and i brought two little bags. It made me laugh, anyway. We got there at about 8 or 9 o'clock. Our directer was kind of crazy but very good. The songs we sang this year were: Choose Something Like a Star (combined piece), Mata Del Anima Sola (spanish song) (girls piece), I tried out for a solo on that song. Hoj, Hura Hoj! (Czech song) (a girls piece that was really crazy), Brooklyn got a solo on that song. I'm Gonna Rise (combined song), Take Me to the Water ( girls song) and as usuall the boys peices were amazing. Amazing!
Everyone who went this year was Adrienne, Marqui, Naomi, Natalie, Andria, Gabby, Jessica, and a few other girls I can't remember. (Boys) Kalin, Weston, Kyle, Bryson, Talin, And other boys also. We had a fun group this year.
We got to the high school we were practicing in, and it ended up brooklyn my cousin was there. It was so fun. It was a long practice though all day long. We had to practice until 11:00 the go to lunch, and come back. We had dinner at 4:00 and we had to be back by 6:00 to practice again and go to our hotel at 9:00. It was nuts but it ended up that time went really fast. We went to eat dinner at 9:00 when we got back because we checked into our hotel so that took more than half of the dinner time. Anyway we ate at denny's, It was so much fun. I don't think they enjoyed us comming in that late. (Tee hee) But it was so much fun.
The next day we had practice at Abravanel Hall. It was a huge building that is so pretty. But in that time we had to get everyone standing in order and so one didn't cover the other person. That took forever long. Then we had to go to the mall to eat. But most of the girls I went with ended up shopping instead of eating. Grrrr. I went back to Abravanel Hall early because I wanted to listen to the boys before the other girls came around to scream when the boys sang. That was the annoying part. The girls screamed and screamed. But the boys songs were really fun...it was really cool. The boys didn't get a chance to eat cause when I got back people started comming in.
Now it comes to the big concert...It was so fun to be in that building. It echoed everywhere. The girls sang their songs first. Then the boys, then the combined songs. Oh I loved it being around all those people hearing the different voices and it was amazing. Then sadly it had to end. I still miss honor chior and can't wait for next year. I had a blast.

Temple Trip
Saturday July 18 I got the opportunity to go to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple with our ward. I woke up at 5:00 and we left at 6:15 it wasn't that bad waking up that early. We set off about 6:30. On the way up it was so fun we watched the movie, Bedtime stories, its a really cute movie. When we got there we had to wait about 30 minuets to get in. It was so beautiful inside and outside the temple. You had this amazing feeling when you walked in the doors. Outside the temple it looked so small but you walk in its huge. My favorite rooms were the sealing rooms and the celectrial room. It was so pretty.
