holy moly! did you all think i was dead? it felt like i was to the internet world. i haven't been on line long enough to do anything in 6 months!!! i'm home for Christmas now for anyone who still reads my crap, non written in forever xanga. i'm home from Dec.14th to Jan. 2nd (i leave at 10pm). so far since i've been home it's been an amazingly great cool fresh breath of air. i've missed home more than i thought, but the road has been amazing as well. now that i'm here, i miss the road and my team mates, but as soon as i get back, i'm sure i'll miss home again. i've realized lately that i missed things i didn't know i missed which was a little wierd, and i realized i didn't miss some things as much as i thought i did either. road life is amazing and God teaches you new things constantly!!! just when you think you're done learning, He brings up something new. well, if you haven't seen me yet, and would like to, give me a call. otherwise, maybe i'll see you around sometime! lots of love!

In His service,

man, i wish i was better at keeping up with this thing...i mean, i have free time every once in a gret while yet i STILL can't manage to write here...well, there have been some very exciting things going on in my life lately...March 26th, 27th, 28th, and 29th were probably some of the biggest days i've had in my life so far...well, on the 26th, i had a half day at school (but i left the last 2 periods of school because i didn't have a 5th period and i needed to get ready for my busy day so my Mom called me out for 6th...). so i got out of school at 10:08 and came home and ate lunch with my Mom...oh wait!!! i messed up! let's go back...the 25th...my Mom found my tattoo on the 25th. that spiraled a whole bunch of stuff and basically i ended up on the phone with Shaun and had a break down. i made a life changing decision to completely straighten out my life from the bad things i've been mixed up in...i'm so excited! i know it hasn't been all that long, but i have yet to falter at all...i cut off all of my "freinds" that temp me (which doesn't really make them real friends anyway...) and it feels good! it's been tough, and it'll get even harder i'm sure...but the times that were hard, felt good the next day. anyway! so the 26th, i was a new person going out to complete the tasks of the day...i ate lunch with my Mom and then at exactly 11:30am, Randy Rebold called. (i had my Phase 3 interview for a touring ministry called Living Proof/Primary Focus) i had my interview with him which took about an hour and at the end of the interview, he told me that he would like to formally invite me to join their ministy!!!!!! i didn't think i was gonna know whether i made it or not until like this week, but...i found out right then and there. well, needless to say i started crying...haha! i'm such a dork! but anyway, so right after that was over, i went and got dressed for my Senior Exhibition which was at 2:15. (it's this stupid presentation you have to do for a panel of judges and you have to pass inorder to graduate...) well, i went and did my presentation and got a perfect score!!!!! whewhoo!  after that, i had to run home, change, get my audition tape and papers, and go straight to Aladdin auditions...i really wanted to get inot the show cuz it's my last one...but i was thinking that i was way drained for the day and i wasn't thinking i was gonna do so well...well, it went ok i guess. i got called back, so oon the 27th, i had dance auditions (can't dance to save my life just for the record) so that was a little nerve racking...callbacks went a little better than dance auditions, but not as well as i felt they could've gone...but i guess they went well enough, cuz at about 10:45pm, i got a call from Shaun and all he said was: "congratulations". well, i hadn't seen the cast list yet, so i ran into Carolyn Stevenson's house (where i was pulling up at when Shaun called). we checked the cast list and i found out i got cast as Omar. that was my first choice and this is my first real role in a CYT show, so i was pretty stoked (to say the least). the days to follow were just filled with me telling people in my life all the good news from the weekend...then on the 29th, i called Robyn Rebold to tell her my official answer cuz i was told to call Monday with my answer. so i leave on June18th for basic training and i'm gone for a year...i'm excited but i also don't htink i've been more scared in my life either. it'll be amazing though! well, i have to go and pick up this family at the airport now, so i guess i'll go...sorry it was so long...

it has been 20 million years, but i had time to sit down and breathe, so i figured, why not talk to my friends while i do so? i went to a camp retreat this weekend up in Idyllwild and it was great! i had such a good time. i'm not sure why it was so great, but it was. i was in a great mood all day today from it and i felt like this weekend was a dream...it was wierd. but anyway, i had a good day and work was good and i got to tan, so i guess it doesn't get better than that huh?  haha. but i'm one tired girl so i'm gonna go to bed. talk to you later!

so yeah. life is insane...insane!!! first of all: it's a small world after all! pretty sure my mom works with this woman who's husband has been best friends with Paul Russell since high school...and she's going to Deer Valley (or soemthing like that) with Ryan Dentt at the end of the month...yeah, wierd. yeah, way too busy in the land of Aubrey...i work Mon., Tues., & Wed. then CYT Thurs., Fri., & Sat...man oh man. then attempting to get ready to graduate?! nutty!!! but life's treatin me prett well (i like to think anyway...) except i can't find the key to the freezer in the garage, so now i can't eat dinner cuz my dinner's in there... but yeah...life goes on...even without rice bowls...but, gotta study for more finals tomorrow! nice to talk to you...well, you get what i mean...right?

"here i am again, i've been here before...i thought i coud handle anything. but i don't anymore." those of you who know me well, know what i'm talking about, those of you who don't...enjoy the quote, it's a great song!  auditions this weekend tired me out like no other...i don't really know why, but all i know is i'm completely drained...oh well, lots of time to catch up on sleep...at some point...congratulations to everyone who got cast in SNOOPY! it's gonna be such an awesome show! can't wait to start rehearsals!  that's all for now i guess...don't wanna go to school tomorrow...yeah, i'm pretty much done with school...it drives me nuts!!! haha. talk to you all later...
