New Car!

Hey everyone! It's been a great year. We moved into our brand new house on Hosmer Lake and it's so much closer to downtown and the school and everything. I graduated from Summit High School at last! Of to bigger and better things now,  I suppose.

This summer has been really wonderful. I had my Senior Piano Recital on Father's Day, and my whole family came from Hermiston and Portland, as well as a few friends from school. It was a really touching event, and a spectacular culmination of eleven years of musical study. Don't worry, though: I'll still play the piano every day.

I finally got a job, after what must have been nearly a hundred applications. I work right downtown, at Olde Towne Pizza, and I love it. It's great to be able to look forward to going to work every day.

Along with my new job, I finally have my own car, and soon, I'll have my driver's license and I com go anywhere I want! (Kind of...) It's really just because my parents are tired of picking me up from various locations around town at all hours of the night, and now that I work evenings... they decided it wasn't worth waiting any longer. Though, I'm not sure what they were waiting for in the first place...


I start college in the fall at COCC. I'll be staying at home, so it's not that big of a change, but the idea of being in college is a little frightening and exciting at the same time.

Luckily, there are still one or two of my friends who will be staying around town next year also, although the majority of us are off in our own directions. Hopefully, we'll all meet up again someday.
