Currently Listening Continuum By John Mayer see related

Hey guys. Man have I been busy. Story of my life. News- these past two weekends, I've been in piano competitions. In the first one, I qualified for state and in the second one, I finished honorable mention! Yay! I'm happy. Oh, and I've started teaching piano lessons. It's rather scary, but pretty fun. Um, let's see, my church's youth group has changed and I really like it. My favorite part is the small group time. It's awesome. School is nuts but oh well. I'm having to do an insect collection for biology. Yeah, not cool. I'm pretty much terrified and creeped out by bugs. 

I'm hoping to see that movie, the Guardian, this weekend. I've been waiting awhile for it. Oh, John Mayer's new cd, Continuum, is really, really good. I love it! Well, that's all I can think of for now so, farewell friends!

Love,    Jacy

Howdy peoples! I know, I know, it's been ages. But what can I say, um, I've been uber busy. Let's see, I started school and it's pretty much crazy. I have dance four nights a week this year, but it's fun. I've been hanging out with my buddies too. Ya know, life is so much more fun with friends. Last year around this time, I didn't really have many, but now I have some awesome, awesome amigos, or should I say amigas. Yay! Actually, I have amigos too. I know about two words in spanish. Pathetic, huh?

Hmmm, reflections. Well, the US Open (tennis) is wrapping up. My two favorite girls are in the final tonight and two of my favorite guys are in the final tomorrow. That worked out conveniently except I don't know who to root for in the ladies' match. Oh well. Oh, Christina Aguilera's new album is pretty cool. She is really talented. Let's see, New York Fashion Week started yesterday. Very cool in my book, since I follow that stuff. 

Well, tata my friends!

Mucho love,    Jacy

Howdy y'all! Yikes, it has been over a month since I've posted. That's the longest ever.

My sister is at Kanakuk (athletic camp) right now so I pretty much have the tv, computer, bathroom, etc. to myself. Yesssssss. I love her but man is she annoying. Well, I 've been to a couple really fun parties lately, a wedding reception and my friend's going away party. I've also been hanging out with my bestest buddies which has been so fun. I'm having a sleepover tonight. Let's see, um, I've seen several movies which were pretty good. Two weeks ago Springfield had a professional (Nationwide Tour to be specific) golf tournament and we housed a player and my dad caddied for him. He's a really good player who will probably get his PGA tour card this year. Anyway, that was fun. My final golf tournament is Tuesday and I have a dance clinic on Monday and Wednesday. On Thursday I'm going for a day to Camp Barnabas which is a camp for disabled children. I'm going with my youth pastor and his wife to help out there. And, this Sunday, I'm playing violin for all three church services which should be both nerve racking and cool.

-pause- 

Pardon me, I was summoned by my mother to search for my dear little dog who enjoys escaping from the yard and roaming the neighborhood. Fortunately, I found her in short order. Alas, school starts so soon. ahhhhhhhhh. As you may have gathered from my bloodcurdling scream, I don't really like school. 

Alrighty, now for my thoughts for today. So You Think You Can Dance is the coolest show ever! I really mean it. The dancers are so talented and the choreography is really neat. The finally is next week. I looking forward to it but I'm sad that it's gonna end so soon. Ooh, random observation of the day, this font color is the same color I had on my fingernails this past week. Yah, I know, pretty bright. Other thoughts, I really, really like Keira Knightley. She is so beautiful. Wow.

Ok, well I'm assuming that you've had enough of me by now so, Adios!

Love, Jacy

Currently Listening Eye To The Telescope By KT Tunstall see related

Hello! You may have been wondering where I've been. Well, in case you have, I  have been a very busy girl. My Grandparents have been here for almost two weeks and I spent the last six days in Branson at the lake. It was marvelous. Well, it was actually quite boring at times but there were definately some very nice things. The new Branson Landing is awesome. There are lots of really cool stores and yummy restaurants and it's right on the lake. I also got to hang out by the pool quite a bit and succeeded in improving my tan. All of you who haven't seen me since I was a pale little creature would be pleasantly suprised I think. Oh, my dance recitals were lovely! They went smoothly and were loads of fun. I have also been playing a lot of golf which has been both good and bad. Sometimes I play like I actually have some skill and sometimes I'm pretty much pathetic. It's so frustrating sometimes. Ooh, there are three movies out right now that I want to see and one coming out on Friday. They are, Devil Wears Prada, Nacho Libre, Superman Returns (or whatever it's called) and at last.......... Pirates of the Carribean- Dead Man's Chest! What are y'all doing for the 4th? I don't know what I'm doing yet. Hopefully something fun. Well, time to return to my golf watching.

Love,       Jacy

I was at my dance studio from 6- 11 last night at a rehearsal and I have another one on Thursday. wow. Recitals start this weekend! Call me if you want to come. Well, I played golf for a few hours today with my dad and sis. It was pretty fun. Other than that, not much is happening. I love sleeping in. Ya, random thought of the day. Well, hope y'all are having fun sleeping in and going to the pool or whatever you're doing. Love ya!!!     Jacy
