Hey! So I'm back! I am really excited because I took my last valencia final yesterday so now my first semester in college is over and I only have one more week of high school left before Winter Break.
So Lately I have read two books- both first in series. The first book I finished was the Maze Runner. Yes I am aware that I am way late on the Maze Runner train, but you see what happened was last year I started reading Maze Runner and then I lost the book and was like "welp guess it wasn't meant to be", than recently I decided to finish it and checked it out from the library. Well I finished the book and I really liked it so I'm on a waiting list to get the second one, YAY! The OTHERRRRR book I read was "Shattered Souls" By: Mary Lindsey. I have to say, I didn't actually know what the book was about when I checked it out, I ran my hand down the fiction isle and counted to thirty than read whatever book is landed on. Well to say the least I was VERY HAPPILY surprised by this book. I am waiting on the Second book in this series as well as Maze Runner. Anyways I was just really happy with these two books and look forwards to finishing reading their series.
Ok so next I want to talk about the fact that my high school theater class has been working on doing A Christmas Carol! Yay! Ok so before we started the process of rehearsal we watched the muppet movie version-make a note before this I had never seen any version of a christmas carol. After we finished watching the movie the next day we got told who we were all playing, I was extremely lucky to be casted as the Narrator. I love my role because I get to speak directly to the audience be completely omniscient. We are preforming on this upcoming Monday for our principal and then I'm not sure when else. In one scene we have to a dance called the Virginia Reel. (.......) The Virginia Reel is one of the most tiring dances I have ever learned/performed. If you have a chance i urge you to watch this video.

I ask you to imagine this with a total of 32 people instead of some 10 in this video, and also make it about twice as fast, and add an extra 2 minutes.
Any how, I hope everyone has been well lately and I apologize for my being absent. Hopefully now that winter break is coming up I will have more time to post!
