Day Of Silence

Another day in the life of ... me! lol ..

Yesterday was Nate and I's 3 weeks so far. =)

Just randomly throwing facts out there.

OH .. FYI ... Friday, April 25Th is the "Day of Silence"

The National Day of Silence brings attention to anti-LGBT name-calling, bullying and harassment in schools. This year’s event will be held in memory of Lawrence King, a California 8Th-grader who was shot and killed Feb. 12 by a classmate because of his sexual orientation and gender expression. Hundreds of thousands of students will come together on April 25 to encourage schools and classmates to address the problem of anti-LGBT behavior.

This is what i will be doing all day Friday. From the time i wake up until the time that i pass out at night. I will not be speaking one word to anyone. No teachers, No friends, No parents ... no one! This will probably be one of the hardest things I've ever done before. I guess we'll see how i do! =)

This past Saturday (April 19Th), the Crawfordsville High School Concert Band went to ISSMA Contest at Arsenal Tech High School and received a GOLD rating on performance and another GOLD rating on sight reading. With that being my last high school concert band contest, i didn't really feel as though it was the best that it could have been and i am saddened by the fact that that was my last contest for concert band. =( ... oh well!

High school is almost done and gone. We have 5 more weeks and then I get to walk down that aisle. =D ... Besides that, Its DEF time for beddy bye. Although its only close to 10PM ...
