AUDITIONS!

Hey! Tomorrow I'm auditioning for an awesome theatre program- I participated in it last year and I'm hoping to make it again this year! It was so much fun! For auditions, we're supposed to sing part of a song, and do a 1-2 minute monologue.
I've been sitting here in this computer room preparing for auditions ever since I got home from school...you see.... I kind of procrastinated learning my monologue until the last minute...so now I'm paying for it. Haha. Hopefully it will all be worth it, though! AND, I just changed my mind about what song I'm singing! The night before auditions! I had to adjust because my voice is leaving me, unfortunately. This same thing happened last year for auditions. So frustrating! Well, I better keep reviewing my monologue! Wish me luck!

Me, Myself, And I

Enjoy! I certainly had fun with this!

1. Do you like bleu cheese salad dressing? ummm, well, i don't think i've ever had it, but i'm sure it would be safe to say NO.

2. Do you own a gun? nope, not personally.

3. What's your favorite drink at Starbucks? oooh. if you even sorta-kinda know me, you KNOW i LOVE Starbucks. I'd have to say the Strawberries and Creme Frappuchino wins the prize!!! It's amazing, hands down.

4. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? cold skim milk. for sure.

5. Do you do pushups? sometimes!

6. What's your favorite piece of jewelry? THAT is a hard one. I'd have to say rings in general are my favorite. :) I love funky stuff!

7. Favorite hobby? Um...does shopping count?

8. Do you have A.D.D.? Don't think so.... but sometimes I do wonder!

9. What's one trait that you hate about yourself? I tend to procrastinate, which really stinks for me, considering i'm in school and all.

10. Name three thoughts at this exact moment: School would be great without the work. This was a good day! I love my new ebay ring!

11. Name 4 drinks you regularly drink. Water. Milk. Really, that's all. I know, sad.

12. Current worry right now? My mom's foot- she hurt it last night, and it's causing her lots of pain.

13. Current hate right now? disorder.

14. Favorite place to be? paris. I've never been there, but i just KNOW it.

15. Do you like to travel? DEFINITELY! ooooh, i dream of paris, monaco, new york, hawaii....and more <3>

It's Here!

Yes!! Woohoo, yippee, hooray, etc...!!! I made it through finals, whew, and it's Christmas BREAK!!! Christmas is in 4 days, can you believe that?!? In other words, today is Christmas eve-eve-eve! I'm really starting to get into the Christmas spirit now that I don't have to worry about studying (hallelujah!) and I can just enjoy spending time with my amazing family and friends!! We went to church this morning, and I loved it, because we sang Christmas carols, and I was reminded of what Christmas (emphasis on the CHRIST) is all about...the birth of JESUS! This is such a special time that I look forward to all year long, and it's here!
Right now, I'm babysitting my two brothers. The youngest, Carson, is sleeping already, and the oldest, Christian, is super low maintenance, so I don't have to worry about him! He's a big help with Carson. Tomorrow we are taking Carson to the mall to see Santa Clause! That should be so much fun! We've already attempted to do this, but the line was SO long because we came at a busy time of day. However, Carson still got to look at Santa....haha, I know, nothing compared to actually sitting in the man's LAP! So we're going to try to beat the crowd this time- we want Carson to have the full experience! I know he will love it- we'll be taking lots of pictures! Well, gotta go.... I'm in Christmas mode!!

I See The Light....

Two finals down, two to go! I see the light- Christmas break, that is! I'm taking a quick break from studying English and Science. Fun stuff. Tomorrow, after our last final, I get out of school at noon...so exciting! Our small group Christmas party was changed from Saturday to tomorrow, so after I get home from school, I'll make a cake for the party, and be on my way! Well, I really should go now... I'm hoping to finish out the semester STRONG!
Bye Bye! ~Caylie~









I found this picture to be hilariously relevant!

The Agony of Finals

I had the greatest of intentions from the very beginning.... I had planned on knowing all of the material DAYS in advance. Yet, here I am, the day before finals, studying and stressing. No fun. Don't get me wrong, I DID start studying early, but the material wasn't quite as...learnable... as I had hoped. Tomorrow I have my geography and my math finals, and on Friday I have my english and science finals. After that, I'm free for Christmas BREAK! I'm mostly dreading Friday- english and science will probably be the hardest ones. Tonight my youth group is having a Christmas party, and I'm so excited! Of course, I'll have to leave a little bit early so that I can continue my studying (ugh...) but it will be so much fun! At least finals are during the Christmas season, because if they weren't, I just don't know what would cheer me up!
I'm so excited about Christmas break! On Saturday, I'm going to a wedding with my Mimi- the bride stayed with her for a few weeks, so I guess you could say that that's how they became friends. That will be really fun! And then I'm going straight to my small group leader's house for a small group CHRISTMAS PARTY!! So fun. We always have delicious snacks and play pictionary telephone, which is an absolute blast- it always has us laughing. I have the greatest small group in the world! Then, on the morning of Christmas Eve, my family is going to my friend's iceskating party! That will be so much fun- I can't wait!! We went last year, and I definitely enjoyed myself! We are probably going to spend that night in Arkadelphia with my Nana and Papaw, and spend Christmas Day with them! Aaagh, I just can't wait!! All the stress of school will be gone, and I'll just get to have fun spending time with friends and family.
Wow, writing all of this makes me so ready for the break! I just have to get through finals first.... it will all be worth the hard work if I get a good grade, I just KNOW it! Well, I've gotta go study, study, study!!

PARTY TIME!

Friday night I had some friends over to help celebrate my 15th birthday party! We had a total blast!! We ate pizza and cake, opened presents, made gingerbread houses, watched a movie, told stories, and more, laughing almost the whole way through!! I have such amazing friends, and this special time with them made me remember how blessed I am! Ok, gotta go study for finals! AAAAAGH! haha, byebye, Caylie
