Currently Listening To: The Matches - Salty Eyes

Well, today was our last day of Drivers Ed! PHEW! Mentally, I was done after Day 1, but now it's official. Today the great sandwich competition took place. Both Jelly's and Lady Murray's stories were superb. I couldn't pick a winner, so it's a tie!

We gave Jelly's story to Brian to read since he's in love with me in that one, but after the 2nd sentence (It must've been the "Brian was secretly in love with Jenny", but I'm not sure), he crumpled it up and threw it us! What nerve. I think Mr. South is jealous of the attention Brian receives.

Over "thurr" is the picture Jell posted from movie night. I just made it pretty.

I told Liz to get a blogspot and she said she has one but it's "too confusing", but I gave her the link to mine, so hopefully we'll see a comment from her soon.

The heart of a boy, the soul of a champion!

P.S. I have a video for you to watch.

Lady Murray said...: Brian is a jerk. How dare he throw that story at us! And we said hello to him everyday and was nice to him.
Liz needs to get in the game. Give me the link to her blog. I want to laugh.

"As some of you may or may not know, this song was written about something really close to my heart. You know sometimes life brings out its complications and some hardships, but you know, it's how we deal with them that counts. And I know that each and every single one of you in the audience tonight have been through a hard time in your life before, right? I know that each and every one of you have felt, at one point, like you couldn't go on, but then you found hope. There's always hope. Remember that. There was a time in my life when I got diagnosed with diabetes and I thought that I'm not going to be able to live my dream, getting to do what I want to do. And I can say today that I played for 12,000 people in Chicago. That happened because I found hope. How many of you people in the audience tonight need to find hope? How many of you need a friend? And how many of you need to find peace? Well, like I said, that's what this song is about. And tonight, this song-- this song is for you. This song is for every broken heart tonight, and for every broken dream. For every high and for every low. Don't ever forget it. Now, what I want you to do now is, if you know the words to the song, I want you to sing with all your heart and all of your soul because something happens when 12,000 people in Chicago come together and sing a song. Now this song is for this generation, and this generation is going to sing it out."
