This is Me (My favorite Camp Rock song)

(Mitchie)
I've always been the kind of girl that hid my face,
So afraid to tell the world what I've got to say.
But I have this dream right inside of me,
I'm gonna let it show it's time to let you know
To let you know

Chorus:
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me.
Now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in.
No more hiding who I wanna be,
This is me

Do you know what it's like to feel so in the dark
To dream about the life where you're the shining star
Even though it seems like it's too far away
I have to believe in myself,
It's the only way!

Chorus

(Shane)
You're the voice I hear inside my head, the reason that I'm singing
I need to find you, I've gotta find you
You're the missing piece I need the song inside of me
(Mitchie joins in)
I need to find you, I gotta find you!

(Mitchie)
This is real, this is me
(Both)
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
Now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I wanna be

(Shane)
You're the missing piece I need the song inside of me
You're the voice I hear inside my head, the reason that I'm singing
(Both)
And now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I wanna be
This is me!!!

BiRtHdAy (:

Today's my 15th birthday! Isn't that just crazy?! Well. I think it is. Anyways, today's been great so far!! I woke up at 8:30, woke my mom up at 9 to open presents, then I showered and played rock band with Nick and Syd. Ooooh... I got this really nice digital camera, it's way cool!! I also got clothes (: And two really cute skirts! I got a piggy bank (: It's very cute. Then, I got two ds games and two movies (Mr. Mom and The Cutting Edge). AND!! I got the Camp Rock soundtrack, because I'm a nerd and love Camp Rock (:

Today is going to be a pretty busy day.. I have to get ready and pack for girls camp, and finish my little cute things I'm making for my girls (: I made really cute notes, and I'm making bracelets (Mali if you're reading this, don't tell the other girls! (: ). I'm so excited for camp, even though it's shorter because of the 4th of July. I also might get my hair done... might... if Amy doesn't have too much going on (:

Anyways... I'm 15!! It doesn't feel any different. Just the same (:
I'll post again before I leave for camp.

Boredomness!

So I'm pretty bored... it's been a kinda boring day so far... so I thought I'd post about my boring day of boringness. Now you know that I, Makenzie Carbine, am bored and you can read this really boring post of boredomness so you too can be bored like me.

Haha anyways... today was the herriman parade and my birthday party at my grandmas (: I'm going back in a few hours, but so far, it's been quite a fun day. I got to hang with my soul sister (5 year old cousin Camille), I got to eat candy, and I got to play "no more monkeys jumping on the bed" with my little cousins!! Quite fun I must say (:

My day....

Today has been a mixed day.... at one point, it was great.... at the dentist, it was horrible. Haha. Well... before last year, I had a perfect "no cavity" record. That then was ruined when I had my first cavity... worst day of my life... jk but it was bad... when he started drilling, it started hurting, which isn't supposed to happen... so he numbed me again... and again... and again.... until finally, it barely hurt when he drilled. I hated that day. Anyways... today, I go to the dentist and as he's checking my teeth... he says "I think you've been kissing too many boys (never EVER have in my life.. haha just thought I'd point that out...) because you have two cavities!". Ha.. I freaked out a bit. I don't like cavities so much...

But!! On a better note, today at practice, we got a little surprise. Our coach Aubrey came in and said "Girls guess what?! I have a surprise!" We were all a little scared... it could be a good surprise, or a bad surprise. She then went on to tell us that if we worked extra hard today, we could have tomorrow off!! Literally, all the girls started screaming!! We were already tired today, and to hear we'd get a day off, we were very very happy. So instead of practice, we're going swimming at 9:30 :D I DON'T HAVE TO WAKE UP AT 5:30!!!! Haha.

Anyways... girls camp is in a few days, and my birthday is in 4!! YAHOO!!! 15 baby!!

Girls Camp!

Well girls camp is coming up... and I'm very excited this year!! On Wednesday at our activity, our camp director, Sis. Hancock, came up to me and said she needed to ask me a question. She said that there aren't enough 5th year girls to help with all the tents, there are 3 fifth years and there are 4 tents. Well... I'm the only 4th year in my ward... SO! I'm in charge of one of the tents this year!! :) It's going to be way fun, one of my best friends is in my tent and is willing to help with scripture study every night!! We also have two first year girls, which should be SO fun because it's their first time being there!! I'm way way WAY excited now!! And, I'm also in charge of directing a camp activity in my ward!! :) Let's just say my 4th year of girls camp is going to be FANTASTIC!!!

On to other news... my birthday is in one week pretty much!! I, Makenzie Carbine, being of 14 years old, will officially be 15 years old!! Me?! CRAZY!!! Am I right?! That means in 1 year, I'll be able to drive AND date! Crazy much?! Yeah... I don't think the road is ready for this girl... jk!!

One more week of drill, then I have a month off!! YAHOO!!! I'm still gonna have to work my butt off during that month, but hey, I'll get to sleep in a bit longer! :) I'll post again soon...

I'm Alive!!

I survived my first week of Summer Drill.... I honestly wasn't sure if I could! Waking up at 5:45, dancing for 5 hours straight, and to top it all off.... I think I broke my toe on Tuesday! I didn't tell anyone til yesterday... let's just say I started crying it hurt so much! So my toe nail might fall off now... but you didn't need to know that... haha :) I think the hardest part of summer drill for me is the running.... everyday, before practice, we run about a mile outside. Sometimes, it's slower pace... and others its too fast for me. I felt like throwing up a few times. I'm not the best runner... but I won't let myself fall behind.... so I run the entire way. Then, we stretch. After, it's kickline :( That's one of my least favorite parts of drill, because I am bad at kicks right now. It's also very tiring. After, we do technique for 2 hours... you heard me right, 2 hours!! Then, we do conditioning... which is also very tiring. My least favorite part of conditioning is at the end of the practice when we're all tired.... our coach, Aubrey, makes us do frog jumps across the gym and back... sometimes twice. That sounds easy.. just try it! Haha. But, I'm gonna get in better shape, and I won't sleep in til 12 anymore! hahaha.... :D It's tiring... but I'm really glad I made the drill team!

California!

Me and Syd with Goofy!! :) this was the only character we got a picture with.
Us in "jail" :) Don't you just love our faces? HELP US!! :)
This is everyone acting cool... :) Hahaha. I love toontown. :)
This is us after the dolphin show at sea world. We sat in the very front row... Nick even was asked to help at one point.... BAD IDEA!! Haha. We were wet pretty much the rest of the day.
This is Shamu the whale.... I didn't know what other pictures to put on here.... so you can look at this whale :)

Overall, California was very fun!! Other than getting sunburned (though mine was tiny compared to Alex's), we all enjoyed ourselves. Now, we're all very tired... it's like you need a vacation to get off of your vacation! I started my first week of summer drill this week!! It's not so bad now, the first day about killed me. I have to wake up at around 5:45 or so... drill starts at 7.... we get a few water breaks... and it ends at 12!! Ya... tiring... I might go take a nap :)

Home Sweet Home

I'M HOME!!! I'M HOME!!!!! AND I'M AT KAITLYN'S HOUSE!! Haha. I would take pictures, if she'd let me!!!

California was tiring. ANd i had drill at 7 in the morning. NOT FUN!!!

Idk what to write about...

This is boring...

HI!!!

Puppies are cute.

I have a farmers tan.

I wish I was an oscar myer wener..... just kidding just kidding.

I'm having fun!!

Are you having fun?

Kaitlyn is having fun!

Wait... where'd she go?

BOO!!

Oh... found her...

K I'll post again later... when I'm not tired....

CALIFORNIA!!! :)

Tomorrow's the day!! California, here we come!!! :)

Blue skies, palm trees, and warm temperatures.

I'm totally ready.

I'll be back in about a week... until then, I won't be blogging for a while.

But I'll be back :)

We're going to Disneyland & Seaworld.... and maybe the beach :)

I hope I get tan.... :)

I'll say hi to Mickey for all of you!! Haha.

Yay!!

I'm excited!

Last day of Dance :(

Katie, me, Bailie, and Sidney. Allie and Lexi aren't in here, but this is most of my team. GO ELITE COMPANY!! I will miss you guys.
This is me and one of the girls I help teach. Her name is Olivia (Livy). She took it hard when she found out I was leaving. Wouldn't stop crying. Such a sweet sweet girl!!
Me and Livy again. As you can see, I was a mess at recital. Hardest night of my life.
This is me, Livy, and her sister Harley (who I also help teach). Such cute girls. I'm really going to miss them.
And... of course... this is me and my little sister Sydney. (and me in my zombie makeup... don't judge me! lol). Hip Dance Company... that's where it all started (well technically, it's Premier... but the name changed..). Without Hip Dance Company, I would not be dancing today. I wouldn't be on drill team. I wouldn't be the girl I am today. Gosh I'm gonna miss it there.

Summer Vacation!!

Well.... it's summer!!! Wow, it sure doesn't feel like summer. Isn't summer supposed to be hot with blue skies and lots of sunshine?! LOOK OUTSIDE! Cold, gray, and wet. On June 5th.

And I was supposed to go longboarding today.... uncool!! I've had to cancel all my plans! :(

But... in 2 days.... I'm going to CALIFORNIA!!! WOOOOT!! :) Warm, sunny California, here we come!! Disneyland's rides, here we come!! Sea World, here we come!! Beach, HERE WE COME! I'm very excited. :)

I'll post again later.... because I have nothing else to talk about :)

Last Day :( continued

Me and Kaitlyn :) I love this girl. Such a great friend!!! And I pretty much live at her house...
This is me and McKenna!!! I love McKenna!! She is such a great person!!
This is me and Ashton (aka Fire :P). Good friend... cute kid.
Groupie :) I love my group of friends, we are all dorks!! :)
Emily, Braygan, and I :) And that's Logan in the background. I love my friends :)

Last Day :(

This is me and my BFFLAE Emily!! Sweet girl... I'm gonna miss her!!! LOVE YOU EM!!! The picture below is my fiance, Lauren (it's a joke :) ). She's in my ward, so I'll still see her.

This is Logan being.... Logan!! Haha those are my sunglasses by the way.... he said he looks like a movie star....
Me and Logan :) idk... I like this picture!!! He's a cute kid... right?! I'm gonna miss his dorky personality :) This is me and my wife Valerie :) Hahaha. I love her to death. She is from Canada, she moved here last year. She speaks French amazingly, and teaches me!! :)

Thoughts for Today....

Here are a few thoughts I've had today...

1. I'm a lucky girl. I've got a good life with good family and friends. I have two wonderful parents, two funny and cute brothers, and one beautiful little sister. I've got relatives near me, friends who have my back, and people that love me.

2. Boys are stupid (other than family members). Why is it that when you start to like a boy, they start to like another girl?! And then they ask her out?! (ya, I'm talkin to you, Fire!)

3. Middle school goes by WAYYYY too fast!! I don't know what I'm gonna do next year, I don't want to lose my friends, especially my BFFLAE (ya, I'm talkin to you, Emily!! I LOVE YOU).

4. I don't know what I'd do without my mom and dad. (Michael's dad died this morning. :( I was crying nonstop a lot today).

5. Blogging is addicting (have you ever noticed that?!)

6. I'm almost 15.... that's half of 30.... HOLY COW!!! Where did the time go?!

7. Long boarding is fun..... who woulda thought?! I like skate boarding, too. Crazy...

8. Waking up at 5 isn't the smartest idea... (I know, why 5?)

9. Ms. Nudd is pretty much the best teacher EVER!! She made me cry today, too. :( love you Ms. Nudd!

10. I LOVE SEMINARY!! YAYA!!! Favorite class by far.

These are Kenzie's thoughts today. :)
