Day 4, Plus Tour

Hey, I rhymed! ;)

The Song Challenge Day 4- A song that makes you sad.
Because of you by Kelly Clarkson


This is a pretty sad song. Yep.

I don't have very much time to say a lot. Thanks a lot, homework. Anyway, I just got back from tour and had an awesome time! It was a party and I'm so thankful for all of my ballroom buddies! Pictures below :)

Pretty much the best jumping picture ever.

Clinton and his boondoggle. Never let him take
pictures on your phone.

Yay for swimming!

In-N-Out is way better in California.

This makes me happy because I'm going to his concert in a month! So excited. It's also a really cute song and makes me happy that I'll be able to sing it to a special someone someday :)

While I'm posting all these videos, I might as well post this one. Pretty much the best thing ever.

Now I probably won't have time to blog at all this weekend because I''l be in sunny California!!! But I'll make sure to write something when I get home. 

Love, Chase - :-)

Up, down, and around.

Why did I get a blog? I really have nothing to say. But, I'm bored and I want to write about something so... I guess I'll write about my favorite thing. In the world. Kind of. ROLLER COASTERS! :D

Roller Coasters are the love of my life. No joke. No, I'm not talking about Lagoon Roller coasters. Those are all lame with the exception of Wicked, which is still lame compared to others outside of Utah. Here, let me share a few of my favorites. And yes, I've been on all of these.

Scream (Six Flags Magic Mountain, California) : Doesn't look like the best, but it's really fun.

Pictures here and here.

Magnum XL-200 (Cedar Point, Ohio): The first roller coaster to reach over 200 feet tall. Classic.

Pictures here and here.

El Toro (Six Flags Great Adventure): Third tallest and fastest wooden coaster in the world, and definitely my favorite wooden one.

Pictures here, here, and here.

Tatsu (Six Flags Magic Mountain, California): Japanese for "flying beast!" This roller coaster lifts you up in the air so you are like superman. Flying through the trees.

Pictures here, here, and here.

Dragon Challenge a.k.a Dueling Dragons (Islands of Adventure, Florida): Yes. I have been on the Harry Potter roller coasters. But, sadly, that was before it was Harry Potter themed :( But, still these are awesome roller coasters. 

Pictures here, here, and here.

The Incredible Hulk (Island of Adventure, Florida): Huge roller coaster with lots of inversion (things that turn you upside down).

Pictures here, here, and here.

X2 (Six Flags Magic Mountain, California): Now, I'm sure you've been on the Samurai at Lagoon. The one where the seats twist. Now think of the same thing, but a roller coaster. Crazy. Look at the first two picture and tell me how you would like to drop at a 90 degree angle, backwards, looking at the ground. :)

Pictures here, here, and here.

Kingda Ka (Six Flags Great Adventure, New Jersey): How about the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world? Sounds like fun right? Oh yeah. Just climb up 456 feet at 128 MPH in 10 seconds, and put a leaf blower in front of your face.That is pretty much the whole ride. Sort of.

Pictures here, here, and here. And check out this video.

Also check out Top Thrill Dragster, which is the same as Kingda Ka, just a little bit slower and a little bit shorter. Oh yeah, and you only have a lap bar, instead of restraints over you shoulder like Kingda Ka.

Now you might think Kinda Ka is my favorite because of how fast and tall it is........Right? Nope.

Millennium Force (Cedar Point, Ohio): I really don't know what to say about this one. It really is just amazing. Built right next to a lake, you get an awesome view, and a great ride. 

Pictures here, here, here, and here.

Well, I feel like a roller coaster nerd now. Oh wait.... I am one. :) 

Concerts? Yes.

Concerts. Gotta love em! Especially when you have seven in less than two weeks. 

Last week I had a choir concert, and I sang in Michael McLean's Forgotten Carols. I had never seen it before, but I loved it! It was so much fun, and the music was great, the story was corny, but still had a great Christmas message. I'm definitely doing it again next year, and if you haven't seen it, see it. :)

This week, I have two more choir concerts. We've been singing all these Christmas songs, and they are all so great! My favorite is Carol of Joy. If you've never heard it, come to our concert tomorrow, or just listen to it here. We sang with the Orchestra yesterday, and they sounded amazing! They definitely made us sound a lot better. It was a lot of fun, and if you were there, I hoped you enjoyed it.

Finally, I have three ballroom concerts this weekend. Friday at 7, and Saturday at 2 and 7. It's going to be really good! And, you should buy tickets from ME and not Nicole! ;) She probably needs the sales more than I do, but you should still buy them from me! ;) I don't really care who you buy the ticket from, just come. The company has been working really hard and it will be a great show. I promise. 

Anyway, concerts are great. Even if I do have one almost every other day. If you love me, you'll come to my choir concert tomorrow (7:30), and/or my ballroom concert this weekend. They will both be great. :)

Life is good.

Hi there! So, I gave into peer pressure and created a blog. Everyone is doing it and so I want to feel cool and do it too! :) Anyway, I probably won't update this very often and will most likely just post random stuff when I'm bored.

I mostly just want to say that life is good. I know sometimes we think our life is crazy and we have no fun with school and all that great stuff, but seriously, life is great. I have great friends and family, and I am so glad I am here on this earth.

:D Just thought I'd share that with you.
