SUPER CUTE PIC!

Rylee Adam Barreto

I.NEED.SLEEP!

Well, this week has certainly been interesting. I think the only good thing that happened was the birth of my first nephew. And first of my parents grandchildren. It was very exciting. He is so cute. Riley Adam Barreto was born Thursday October 16th at 2:00 am. He was 7lb 3 oz. And he's pretty freakin adorable. (pictures coming soon-standby)

So right now I am at my school. Why you ask? Well, let me tell you. The ensemble (which I blogged about with pictures) had an all-night retreat. ALL. NIGHT. At about 2:00 P.M. today I was ready to pass out I was so tired. And now, 12 hours later- 2:00 A.M., I sit here basically not knowing what else to do besides post this blog and check my e-mail. The first two hours weren't too bad. David Hastings came to work with us on blending and stuff. It was pretty cool. He's going to be the mass choir director and adjudicator at musicale this year, which I am totally psyched about.

Right after he left I wanted to just sleep. But I soon found that sleep was no where in my near future. I tried all of the places I could think to sleep. I tried in "Mrs. Grove's Office", which really was obviously a dumb place to try to sleep. I tried sleeping in the weight room, but the lights wouldn't turn off, and the music in there wouldn't shut off. That was annoying. Then I tried sleeping in Mrs. Grove's car.... but when I opened the door and three penguins waddled out, I realized that I would soon freeze to death. Plus the music from the choir room and the gym were still far too loud for me to get any real sleep in. Aaand on top of that, there is a big light out there that basically prevents anyone from any form of dark bliss.So I tried one last thing.... oh yes, the bathroom floor. I know, gross! I was completely disgusted, but I figured I would find a way to laugh about it later, so I ignored that nasty detail. But the floor was really cold and hard, and I couldn't forget where I was sleeping. I couldn't sleep.Again. So I gave up. I tried. Good game America. We did our best. I want to be in my own warm bed right about now.

OMG! I just grabbed a random cup that Mrs. Grove was drinking out of, and I took a small sip. Mother of the living living that is BAD! It tastes like watered down Sprite/Diet Dr. Pepper/ ice-tea/poop/popcorn.... No, really, it's bad. I think I'm going to puke!I. NEED. SLEEP!!!
