Insights

I forgot one thing that happened in September that was actually pretty cool.
I had a dream that I thought was really interesting.
I dreamed that I was feeling very anxious and stressed about life, so I decided to go for a drive. I drove around in my van for hours, not noticing the storm clouds and fog that were coming in everywhere. I suddenly stopped my van in the middle of nowhere, looked at the dense fog in every direction, and realized I was completely lost. In front of me was a large, black mountain with storm clouds around it. To my left and right there was just thick, white fog covering everything. I turned around and there, sitting on top of the hill, was the Rexburg temple. It was glowing brightly through the storm clouds and fog, and using it as my guide I was able to find my way home.

Boggling blogging?

Say it ten times fast. I dare you.

Important events throughout the lovely month of September:
First of all, we finally had summer. And that was nice. Because I despise cold.
We also had Homecoming week. I didn't participate as much as I probably should have, considering it's my senior year, but I did attend Powderpuff,

the bonfire,

Homecoming game (we failed...miserably),

and, most important of all, the Homecoming Dance! :D
I went with the most studly and awesome Jaron Judkins.
We had a HUGE group,

but our individual pictures, done by David Hinck, turned out really cute...

...despite any awkwardness...

It was an incredibly fun date. Jaron is a fantastic and hilarious stud :D



My last big September event was my sister finally getting home from her mission!!! Brooke was serving in Louisiana for the last year and a half, and I missed her profusely :) She's very happy to be home and somewhat baffled at the change in Rexburg - and the world in general.

Ending, mini-update: Musical rehearsals have been going well, I got a 30 on the ACT, and school is tolerable :)

Well...

Update on Hannah Bea's life :)
First of all, I'm finally a senior! It's about time, in my opinion. With this comes superiority and responsibility. I get first choice around the school and can boss around the younger grades and get to actually feel tall every once in a while! On the other hand, I have to worry about the ACT and hard classes and college applications. All in all it has it's ups and downs.
One of the very best ups of senior year, is that I got the lead in the musical! We are performing Singing in the Rain and I got the part of Kathy! Two of my guy friends are Don and Cosmo, and my very best friend in the world got Lina! Oh the irony :) Rehearsals are going well so far; we'll see what happens when we start practicing the many kissing scenes...
Those are my two major pieces of news. More to come I'm sure!

Blogging

Why do people blog? I've been looking at some of the blogs I follow, to get an idea for what I want to do with mine. Some are purely business blogs, while some share inspirational thoughts for the world to read. And many bloggers just shout out their news; what they're up to, how they've been, etc.
It got me thinking- why do I have a blog? What's the purpose of Bea's Bumbles? Is there a purpose, or did I just get one because my friends all had them? I'm not sure. I'm hoping that with time my posts will become entertaining or inspiring, but for now they'll probably just be purely informative. And I apologize for that. I'm new to this :)
Thanks to you random followers that want to keep up with my life- updates are coming shortly, I promise!
