A week in the crazy life of Cara.

So pretty much i'm a slacker because i never post anything... i know i know. but you see, i am a very busy person. very very busy. let me talk you through my week this week.
-Today is sunday. i got up and went to church and then came home, made some delicious fatty chocolate no-bakes, ate dinner and rushed off to my presidency meeting. When i got home a phone call was waiting for me from rochelle, after which my loving father reminded me that i had to make a flyer for the upcoming priest/laurel dance, which i am helping to plan since i am on the stake youth council. im also planning a joint activity bunco night and a ward etiquette dinner for our priests and laurels.
-Monday. tomorrow i will probably wake up around 5:00 am and get ready so i can leave by 6:30 and be at seminary bright and on time. hopefully. I'll probably have to leave early so i can be at my Mr. bowmen meeting at 7:30. I'm also planning our school's annual Mr. bowmen pageant that directly benefits Doernbecher children's Hospital. there are 12 boys who are competing in a male 'beauty' pageant to win the title of 'Mr. Bowmen' (our high school's mascot). last year we raised over $7,000 so were hoping to make a lot this year too. I'll be sending a letter to all the family if anyone wants to donate to the cause. All the girls on the commitee are paired up with one of the guy contestants to help them along. I'm Nathan Ranno's partner, so he's gotta win! My job on the committee is to plan the pageant itself so ive got a lot to do.. The pageant is on March 6th, 2009. after my meeting, i have to go to my classes, and then i have to leave school early (by 2:15 pm) to get to Portland so i can go to my Kids Making Miracles for Doernbecher meeting. I'm involved in planning events for the kids at the hospital and also fundraising. I love doing this so much! its one of my favorite things. after that i'll probably take lindsey (my friend who's coming with me) to soccer and then go home and do some homework.. and try to get to bed early for once. i might try to get a run in there somewhere, but who knows..
-Tuesday will be LOTS of fun! haha I'll be at school probably by 6:00am or earlier so i can help set up for the *BLOOD DRIVE!!!* i love blood drives. soooo much. even though i really shouldnt donate since i dont technically weigh enough, i do it anyways. ive never had a problem or reacted to it, so i don't feel bad lying about my weight.. I also get to volunteer all day at the drive! which is way fun. i get to escort people to the beds, talk to them, help them be brave, and also, i get to eat oreos all day long. at 7:15am i have to leave setup so i can go to my mandatory NHS meeting and get some stuff done. we're probably going to debrief winter formal. then its back to the blood drive. after thats over ill probably help tear down. go to the last few minutes of newspaper or something, and then book it out of there to make it to work by 3 ish. work til 6 (answering phones, helping dad and cleaning) after which ill go home,eat dinner and probably skip homework... until i feel guilty, then ill do it. try to go to bed early.
-Wednesday is one of the best days of the week! no early meetings ,just seminary, and i actually dont have to work! so ill probably go running or something and take a nap til its time to go to mutual and then ill go to bunco night!
-Thursdays are probably my least favorite day of the week. i get up, leave at 6:30, go straight from school to work, and usually on thursdays i go straight from work to sherwood chorale choir practice. that doesnt start til next week though, so im a little relieved.. but in between 6 and 7:30 sometimes i go shopping at marshalls, so that always helps a little :) i usually dont get home til baout ten on those days, so there's no way im breaking out any homework.. thats what 2nd period leadership and lunch is for..
-Fridays are blissful. since its the day before v-day, all the girlies at my lunch table decided to get flowers for each other! since none of us will get anything from any boys.. so we all wrote our names on some paper and crumpled them up and made sami dump out her purse so we couls draw them out.. so itll be GREAT!!! im actually pretty ecstatic about it! i love flowers! plus that night is a home boys basketball game, so i love those! after the game is the sadie hawkins dance. im not really sure if i want to go or not ,so its either that or miss lexi's v-day but not on v-day party. if you want to know what im going to do that night, ask me saturday. ill know by then. :P
-Saturday, we're closed for valentines day. haha a veterinry hospital, closed for valentines day. haha it really makes me laugh, but whatever, i dont have to work! i'll probably go with the mr. bowmen guys to Mr. Formal for their tux fittings and then i have no idea what ill do. maybe ill get a hot date between now and then.. but thats not really all that likely, since the guy that wants to hang out with me is kind of a creeper and i really DONT wand to hang out with him for VALENTINES DAY... so ill figure something out.
anyways thats my crazy week.. i believe i have done my blogging's worth for the next couple months at least.. haha so i hope you appreciate this. i really hope you do.
until next time
Cara :)
oh btw, a video of me singing the national anthem on saturday the 7th of Feb will be up online somewhere soon so ill post a link when i get it... if you want to hear that story let me know.. its pretty funny :)

just in case you were wondering, im really bad at typing. i really can spell! just not when im typing, so forgive the gramatical errors. i was going like a million words per minute, well maybe not that fast, but i was typing fast.

You do have a busy life. But that's the best way to be in High School! Keep up the good work!
