Wow, it's been forever since I've been on here. Well, what can I say... I've been doing stuff! Stuff is good. Stuff like:
Marching Band
Summer Seminary
Mowing Lawns
Working at The Seville
BYU SummerFestival Music Camp
Practicing Trumpet
Online Classes
EFY Next Week!
and more!
I still can't believe that the 'senior class' is now "Senior!" Crazy sauce... well, this year is pretty much guaranteed to be awesome. I got a piece of advice from a great friend which said, "Throw yourself into your senior year like you've never thrown yourself anywhere before." I plan on taking that and running as far as my legs will carry me (and then my arms, etc.) Hopefully we all will! There's nothing like high school for the rest of our lives. Life will never be this simple again! Once we enter the real world, there's no turning back. (Kinda like the matrix... So that's what high school is! Just kidding...) Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful Independence Day! (I would say 4th of July, but that makes it sound like a fancified way of saying 'have a great day!') It's one of my favorite holidays of all time because I love America! What an awesome place to be. Well, I hope everyone is thoroughly enjoying the summer. For those instrumentalists out there, keep practicing! What else do you have to do when there are too many degrees outside to be comfortable? Oh... and a few random thoughts...
This is the last summer we don't have to think about college and "what's next."
This is the last summer we know what is next.
This is the last summer we have before we are thrown into the 'real world.'
And guess what?
Summer is almost half over.
Forgive me for being a realist, but you know what I say? Bring it on! Let's go for it! Go in with a bang, out with a bang, and make the best memories we've ever made. Have fun, y'all!

You know what? I totally agree with you. I was SO terrified to be a senior as of graduation last month, but honestly, Bring it on! We could quite possibly (and probably) have the very best year of our oh so short lives thus far. I'm SO excited! I look back at all my years of Jr High and Highschool up to this point, and I realize how much I've learned from them. I know that I'm going to learn SO much more this year in all aspects of my life, but I'm happy to be going into the year with much more knowledge than I have ever had before. :) I think I'm rambling now. (As is to be expected at 10:30 at night.)
Anyway, one more thought to add to your "summer thoughts."
This year is the very last year where we HAVE to be at the same place that all our friends are at. :) After that it's off to the real world, and up to us to organize things. :)
I hope you're having fun at EFY, and I'll except a full report upon return! :) See ya later Bryan!
Bryan, you will go so, so far this year not only because of your "throw yourself into it" attitude, but also because of the remarkable capacity and capability you possess to make your "throwing yourself into something" amazing! As you enter this year, expect the best, and follow the advice I got from a good friend: "Work like it all depends on you; pray like it all depends on the Lord (because it does)." Oh, also: pray for those of us who are entering a stage of life that brings a lot of newness and uncertainties! You're great!
