Just Genuine Happiness

  Right now, I am just genuinely happy.  And why is that, you ask?


I.Got.My.Nutcracker.Part.

{{please excuse me while i go and freak out just a lil bit}}

  It's my sixth year in the Nutcracker, my third year on pointe, and I got a pointe part.  I really did it, guys.  This has been a dream for me since as long as I can remember.  <3  The perks of being a Raggedy Ann Doll?  It's a pointe part, of course.  ;]  And then, it's in the party scene!  I've never in my life been in the party scene in all the six years I've danced in the Nutcracker.  The party scene is so exciting, it had a lot of acting in it as along with dancing.  I'm just very excited right now, guys.  Very.  XD

  Second?


Cross country meets!

  I had my very first cross country meet on Monday {{August tenth}}, and it was a huge meet.  There were so many teams and people, and the lines for everything were miles long, I swear.  XD  So, I ended up not being able to stretch at all before I ran, do to being stuck in a line.  Oh, the joy!  :p  So, that really didn't make me very happy, and I ran the two miles in twenty-one minutes, so that wasn't exactly satisfying either, but at least I ran the race.  ;]

  Today I had my second cross country meet, and I felt MUCH better about it!  It wasn't quite as large, and my time was a lot better,-seventeen minutes, forty nine seconds!-so I'm just utterly happy at the moment.  Shaving off that much time isn't always normal in cross country! :D

  I am happy for lots of other little reasons, too, so I'm just feeling happy all-over.  :]

  What are you happy about?

xoxo,
Carolyn <3

  2. Well done! What am I happy about? Well, probably the fact that I've started soccer and though I'm not that good (yet! I felt myself improve a little bit over the three soccer things I've been at in the last couple of weeks!), it's really fun and I'm glad to be doing a sport I like. I'm also doing art this year and it's great. I don't really know, but life seems really good right now! :)

  3. I'm happy because the Divergent movie is coming out on a special day for me {I can't say why for protection reasons}.
    Good for you! Someday I want to run the Color 5K {that's whats it's called, right? I think it's pretty cool.}.

      Thank you! Yeah, that'd be SO awesome! :] It's called that, yes. It'd be so cool if we both did it at the same time! XD

    2. It would be! Sometime {maybe tomorrow} I want to watch the HG while running/walking {My family has our treadmill in front of a TV. I'd run outside, but I'm not allowed to go very far. :p}. Can you imagine that? It'd be like running for your life!

  4. Cross-country meets are super fun, aren't they? I had my first meet [1.5 miles] a week or so ago and it was AWESOME! I didn't get a super good time [I got 13:13] but it was still a great start... [: I can't wait for the 5k races. Do you run for your school, or are you part of a national thing? I run for USATF [USA track and field], and I'm hoping to go to nationals this year. If you run for USATF too, that'd be super cool if we met up at nationals!!
