Observation

Hello friends.
It has been nearly two months since I have posted anything, and I apologize for anyone wanting to hear form me. I've been so busy doing nothing! Seriously. Like sitting around and walking around pacing the house kind of nothing. I just haven't been able to write and complete and post a blog.
Anyways, in basic words, life in Arizona is going well. I am completely not used to so many people! They are everywhere! I went for a drive last week in search of somewhere peaceful and away from the world with a pretty sight. And where did I end up? Back home. It was rush hour. Lane-to-lane traffic in both directions on a six-lane road and I would have had to drive forever to find what I wanted. 
Note to self and visitors: Southern Arizona (where I'm at) does not have easy get-aways; at least not yet.
As for the heat, it's hot. You get used to it though. It's really not as bad as I thought. Going running at 8:30PM after the sun went down for thirty minutes and coming home COMPLETELY dripping in sweat....OK, that is taking my getting used to. For the most part though, I love it. And I can't wait until the beautiful weather this winter! (You Utahns have no idea... muah haha) 
The kids:  are awesome! I am already loving the people I have and will be meeting. I had a welcoming get-together party this past weekend and I asked a friend I met right away if he could invite some people. He said he got it covered, and I was like OK, maybe 15 people tops will show up. Oh was I wrong! 50! No Joke! Some came and went, some stayed the entire time, some came just before everyone left, but in total I met at least 35 people that night, and don't ask me their names, 'cause I don't know. I do know that I was very happy to see and later on at school I will maybe recognize a few kids. Best part is, every single kid was a member! (Maybe a few weren't) And they were all seniors! This area is huge. There are so many kids and such a good balance of LDS members, it's nothing like Utah, it's the real stuff down here. 
As far as I have noticed, and I might be entirely wrong, it seems as if the teenagers in this area are real. They go on dates, group dates often, and they even have a brain! Shocker. It's so awesome!
I feel like I fit right in. It's a little hard though, for me. A lot of the kids say they're in choir or drama and other extra-curricular activities. Me-not so much. So that makes me want to get into to stuff, and with my parents and their lame attitudes, there's hardly any hope. 
Like guitar or piano, voice lessons and paying the fees for Xcountry and choir. 
And I haven't got a job yet! It's very discouraging. How am I supposed to save up for life?
Well I guess that's all. School starts in two weeks, TWO WEEKS! I don't even believe it. August 10th, it's insane. I am so NOT ready to be old but I am SO ready to be done with school! Mesa High school is going to be awesome. My dad graduated form there, so do the math how old it is and all the school spirit there is.
I shall be awesome this year.
TTFN!
