11 Days Till Graduation

I cannot believe that I graduate in like 11 days! It's so crazy that I really am having a hard time wrapping my head around it. It seems like just yesterday I was this awkward, not so little, freshmen trying to be a dancer and cheerleader. Oh those were the good old days, but now I have four 2nd place state trophies, four region champ titles, and an outstanding captain award. What is happening? I didn't realize that my high school career would go by this fast! It is utterly and completely insane! Oh well though, I am quite excited to start the next chapter in my life! (: I don't blog very often but I thought it'd be fun to just write a little something on this quiet night. I'm sending out graduation announcements soon and it's all really hitting me. Seminary graduation is this Sunday and Nana and Papa come out next Wednesday! It's all really blowing my mind! Before I know it it'll be graduation day... and then the cruise... and then San Antonio... and then moving out day! It's CRAZY!! I don't know if I mentioned that yet ;) I am very excited... and in a way, ready for all of this great change in my life! Wish me luck! (:

So pretty much yeah... (:

So let me just tell ya about my day. Yeah? I get woken up at 5:30a.m. so my parents can tell me goodbye before they leave for Alaska which I'm very jealous about. But anyways... after they leave I quickly fall back asleep only to have my alarm go off in what seems like only minutes but really it was 7:00a.m. So I get up... make myself a pack lunch, put my practice clothes on, get a text from Ash saying she's outside, grab a water bottle and jump in Ashtin's good lookin' red car. So we get to practice and start stretching and then Shawna comes and teaches us our Kick routine for drill and it is so freakin' cute! It's to Avril Lavigne's "Sk8ter Boy" and "Girlfriend". It is so punk girl and I love it! (: Thunderettes are gonna rock socks this year. (: So stoked. Um... yeah so we got done with that at about 4:00p.m. Then Ash drives me home and I make me some food and get on Facebook. It is now 9:40p.m. and I just barely got in the shower. I'm really actually contemplating going to bed right now I'm so tired. But overall this day was good (: (:

Oh my gosh, you'll never guess what happened....

So the weather outside today was frightful.... okay so I didn't really mean to make this a christmas song post haha but in all seriousness. The wind today was CRAZY! I was about to head over to my best friend Ashtin's house when my mom told me to take all the trash to the dump. So like a good little girl, I did. Let's just clarify what the "trash" entailed. A big Frosted Mini Wheat cereal box, like five hundred cardboard pop cases, and a full trash bag. Okay so now that that is all cleared up. I drove to the dump to well... dump the trash :P I was almost done, all I had left was the cereal box and a few pop cases. As I was putting the cereal box into the big old dumpster the insane-o wind tore the cardboard box from my hands and across my face. I threw the rest of the stuff away and got back into the car. Before I drove away I decided to fix my hair in the rearview mirror. As I leaned up to check things out I noticed a gash on my upper lip, bleeding. First thing that went through my mind, "What? No..... what is this?!" I was... embarrassed. Freak accident right? Oh and if you are wondering, Ashtin did laugh profusely when I arrived at her homestead and explained my situation.

Who knew such a simple task could be so dangerous.

But there ya have it. Another day in the life of the one and only CourtneyMarkell Holt (: Gotta love it. (:

The "Good" Old Days (:

Holy cow, I just watched some videos from like 4 years ago and all I can say is… “wow did I really look like that?” or “oh my gosh I can’t believe I did that!” It’s funny, no doubt about that, but it’s also very, very embarrassing haha. Like for reals, who let me outta the house?! My friends and I were so creative back then though. I think that’s mostly why it was the good old days. I won’t lie, I do understand better now as to why I was never a boy magnet :P But those days were so fun haha. It’s nice to be able to look back and honestly say, “I wouldn’t change a thing about my past.” I’ve always had the greatest friends who have supported me through like everything and my family has ALWAYS been there for me. I really can’t think of one thing I’d change. Okay that’s a lie, someone should have told me to stop eating :P haha. But now I can see how much I’ve grown up. It’s quite a shocker actually(: I may not have been the cutest, most coordinated girl, but I had fun and that’s all I really care about. I’ve grown because of it and well not to sound conceited but… look at me now! (: I wish I could just get together with all those people who saw me in my most awkward stages and say, “Oh yeah, I’m hot now” :P It’s just a good feeling to know that, even though I might miss those “Good” old days, I’m really glad I’m living in these GREAT days now. (: (:

Mom is mean and pokes my bruises....

The title tells it all. Sittin' in church and Mom thinks it'd be funny to POKE MY BIG OL' BRUISES!!!! Rude face. :'( It hurt so bad. She's mean. I'm gonna tell everyone that she beats me.... muahahahaha :P jk love her lots! Even when I'm rude to her... she should know it's just in my nature :P

(: I'm all smiles (:

Today was a really good day. Church was great and the past couple of days we've had some really good family time. My family is so amazing. I love spending time with them. I have no reason to not be all smiles today. I'm trying to have a really good attitude for the rest of the week even though I'm totally dreading the whole back to school thing next Thursday. I wanna make this year really memorable. I also don't wanna be super stressed out like I am every other year. I'm just trying to keep my chin up and be well... all smiles (:

k so today...

k so today i was totally gonna go to church... and then when i actually woke up in the morning i just didn't want to anymore. and yesterday i was totally pumped. and ya know what? this makes me upset. cause lately i've been thinking about it and i'm not a very good person. i'm really like batchy all the time and i never go to church and i just wish i was different and then everytime that i tell myself i'm gonna change.. i just don't.
