may the fourth be with you

so i'm not sure when or how this started (or if i just live under a rock and didn't know about it) but apparently today is star wars day. i think it's quite clever.

my tanning escapades have continued. i went for 12 minutes and burnt my stomach/back. probably because my stomach has never seen the light of day. at least not in sunshine. it's just reaching that point that it itches but if i scratch it i instantly regret it. yay for pain neurons, right?

i'm beginning to have a whole new appreciation for all the foreign kids who come to my school and speak english all day long. i'm in spanish 4 and we have to do a 10 minute presentation on culture in spanish speaking countries. it took me awhile to think of something i could actually spend 10 minutes talking about but once i found it (artists in/from south america) the realization hit: i actually have to write up 10 minutes worth of words in spanish. at this point i'm debating whether i should figure out what i want to say in english then try to switch it to spanish or just start out completely (notes and all) in spanish. i'm leaning towards the all spanish because then i can add details and whatnot to my presentation without having to translate on the fly.

my last choir concert of the year (and of high school) is approaching this weekend. it's big fun because we get to wear our prom dresses. it's extra big fun this year because our director is having us serenade his wife for their 10th wedding anniversary. we're singing the song you are so beautiful and our director is singing the solo. it's going to be epic!!
