Life Update // 27.11.15

Oh, how I've missed you!! 

Hey guys! How's it going? I've missed blogging and have decided that my life is still interesting even though I live in the US. I just haven't had any time. So here are all the blog-worthy moments of the past three months. 

Band, band, and more band

Buddy pictures with my sister

I am in the marching band at my school. If you didn't know, marching band takes up a lot of your life. But because of band I've gotten to do some really cool things.

Like play the national anthem at an A's game:

On the jumbotron.

And march down Main Street, U.S.A. in Disneyland.

Fancy Disney Preforming Arts Ears

Marching Band

Friends and Ferris Wheel

We've marched at several competitions and won. We've marched several competitons and sucked. Our season ended on Saturday and I'm gonna miss it a ton.

Community Emergency Response Training

CERT is a thing where you learn how to help firefighters when a disaster occurs and there are too many injuries for the limited amount of firefighters.

My mom and I took 6 classes and graduated to become CERT members. We learned how to do basic medical triage, search and rescue, put out fires, lift walls off of people, and more.

I'm going to go through my pictures and see what else happened...

My Swedish sister came to visit

I am applying for NSLI-Y scholarship to go abroad in the summer of 2016 and I had to submit two pictures. I ONLY GOT TWO PICTURES. Last time I applied, I got 5 or 6 pictures. I couldn't decide on only two pictures so for one of them I made a collage. Technically it's one picture.

I got my driver's lisence. During my test, there was construction so I had to drive on the wrong side of the road. 

I met Jojo Moyes!!!! She is a British author and she came to my hometown!!!

You may (or more likely may not) remeber Jojo Moyes from this picture in Hurghada:

The book in this picture is the book she signed(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

We went to Vegas for my parents' wedding anniversary.

First US shawerma

First US falafel

We built a playhouse with Habitat for Humanity

I turned 17

Also Thanksgiving. I tried to make pie last year it turned out like this:

It's supposed to look like this:

So yeah. That's what I've been up to lately. Now that band is over, I'm going to try and post more and do more. If I get this scholarship, I'll definitely be posting all summer. 

Hope your past three months have been amazing.

Learn something today.

Byeeeeeee

Corie.
