the sun will come out

TOMORROW.

I move into my dorm at Wellesley College.

Oh my word! Can you believe it?!

Before this, there were so many crazy sad good-byes and I'm now ready to finally say some HELLOS!

I am so super excited and mom and I have had the BEST 4 days getting ready and spending time together. Mom's are the greatest, they literally know exactly what to say to make you happy and/or think about what to do in life's crazy situations.

I'll be sure to update this later!

Right now I feel: excited/nervous/scared/so happy/naseous/ready/not ready/LET'S GO

summer

This summer has been the most random though amazing time of my life.

I find myself relaxing most of the time, but know that I will not have "grace-relaxing time" pretty much anymore after college begins.

I GOT MY DRIVER'S LICENSE....FINALLY

yes, I drive the family's white-whale suburban.

The man who gave me my test was ridiculously weird but I'm grateful that he helped me pass my test!

I am off to Girls Camp in Arrowhead on Tuesday - I know it will be SO MUCH FUN.

19 days until I fly to Wellesley.

I cannot wait one more second.

Life will begin :)

And yet, before this there will be sad good-byes and 'see you laters'

I think my tear-ducts will need a rest after the end of august

I'm ready,

Grace

hey there

So I'm getting ready for my trip to Provo = I am so excited!

Jackie Waldron and I are going to EFY (Especially for Youth) together up at BYU!

woooohoooo

and I saw Eclipse last night! oh my word. FANTASTIC.

I can't really remember the book but I thought that the movie was wonderful.

2 days until Utah

58 days till Wellesley

tick-tock goes the clock!

life is CRAZY but my favorite

Dear Everyone,

sooooo much has happened since I last updated this.

1. I have committed to Wellesley College and I am SO excited it's not even funny

1b. The yearbooks came!

2. Robert & I were crowned Prom King and Queen at Prom this Year - probably the cutest moment of my ENTIRE life

3. I graduated from high school! Class of 2010

4. It's summer :)

These last four years at Newport Harbor have been some of the best years ever

I am learning more and more what it feels like when people say "these years pass by so quickly"

Over the summer I'll be sure to update more and keep everyone updated on the adventures of my life

Love you,

Grace

BEST DAY EVER.

*Rehearsal was let out early

*I was accepted to Wellesley College
*and WE GOT A DOG - her name is Wendie :)

yessssssssssssssssss.

*oh, and Rob came over to celebrate! YAY

tgisw

thank goodness it's ski week!
We just got done with Into the Woods auditions and I got the part of the Baker's Wife - pretty stokes about that! and Formal was a week ago. 'twas SO MUCH FUN!
tonight I am babysitting and Sunday is Valentine's Day! YES!
Last night, Rob and I saw Avatar (yes, I know it came out months ago) but that movie was radical! It took me a bit to get into the movie, but sooner or later I was glued to the screen. There was so much detail in that movie that was really incredible.
Happy Saturday!

money in the bank

This afternoon/night, I babysat from 2pm-9pm and made $60. Can you say "get money, get paid"? I can.
The best lines of the night:
Chase (age 3) - Gwace, can we please not watch any scary movies? They will frighten me and make me nervous
Clayton (age 8) - If you do not let me keep this sign up, I will tell my mom you are a bad babysitter
Oh goodness. Too fun. We played Candyland and Chase HAS to win or else Clayton warned me he throws things. So I stuck the Princess Lolli card right where Chase picked up the cards so he skiped ALL THE WAY to the FRONT. and then won. it's okay though. I got him back playing Cranium.
Oh the joys of babysitting! Haha
Tomorrow is Sunday! Yes!
And a shout out to Myles Warner and Laren Hudson,
this one's for you guys,
Grace
