How to Cope with Death (RIP)

Hey Guys,

So recently, and I mean today. I found out my Grandma Gloria died from breast cancer a few days ago.

I still can't really believe it honestly, we used to always email each other weekly. I mean she was always a sick woman, and looking through my emails she always ended up in the hospital for easy things such as concussions or pneumonia. She was the Grandma I was really close to. Since I live far away from most of my family. 

I've been coping with my Grandmother's death by writing. Such as poems and songs. 

How do you cope with sad things such as death?

And if you feel like your life is over because of death or anything dramatic going on with your life, trust me when I say, you're not alone. Talk to friends, family, a therapist, anybody that you know can help you and talk out your situation. 

R.I.P. Grandma Gloria♥♥

Keep Smiling,

BRIAN'S HOME! (Don't Run Away)

Hey Guys,

So two weeks ago one of my best friend's Brian ran away from home. He ran away basically because his parents found out he was bisexual and they didn't like it at all, and yeah.. I don't think I should go into detail, since you should be able to get the point. 

Two weeks later he really surprised us by showing up to school! He's returned home now, so don't worry. 

Hopefully his parents would learn to love their son no matter what sexuality he is, seriously. A parent should give nothing other than loads of support and unconditional love. I mean the rumor was that he is returning to school sometime this week, but I really didn't have high hopes on that, until today. I really hope he gets his life back to where it needs to be..

Note to those who decide to Run

Please, if you really feel like nobody loves you, and you don't feel wanted. Please, DON'T RUN AWAY.

There are so many things that can happy if you run away! You can get raped, killed, ill. I mean, just anything horrible. If you feel unwanted get help, talk to an adult, therapist, friends, family, anybody. Cause there IS somebody that will help you. And I'll even be there for you, as weird as it is. I know how it feels, but we just need to know better that it's even worse to run away from your problems.

We need to face them. Hopefully I helped you.

Keep Smiling,

Teri♥

Show Choir Auditions 2013-2014 (AWKWARD SITUATIONS)

Hey Guys,

Today's blog is basically what happened in choir today.

Now last year I was in show choir, if you don't know what show choir is it's like Glee I suppose. If you don't know what Glee is, please.. do your research! 

I had my show choir audition after choir. Like the class after choir. I was so prepared to have my audition during choir! But nope.. it took to long, and after choir my voice was no longer there. (If you want to hear how I sing check out my YouTube channel TRU341) 

My teacher has to video tape me dancing, and singing, and with my warmups. Which is kind of weird, because then these "judges" will watch the video and determine if I am in show choir or not.

A lot of my friends said "You'll make it no matter what cause you're their favorite!" Yeah right! Whatever you think, it's a chance for me, and their choice. 

Anyways, I went in there and had to say my name, which is weird since my teacher has known my name for about 3 years. But I said my name anyway.

We did this vocal warmup like a repeat this note after me. It went all over the place with ranges! From high to low, I was trying out for Alto so my voice wasn't really ready for highness. My voice kind of strained a tad with the high voices, which is weird since I can usually sing up high.. I guess my nerves got to me.

After that, we had to sing the chorus of "True Colors" by Cyndi Lauper. For me, in the alto range. I must say, I did pretty good on that part! Then we danced to the chorus (without singing) to the song "Brighter Than the Sun" by Colbie Caillat. Which I did okay on, dancing isn't really my thing.

As I was dancing I eyed my teachers a few times, which made it even more awkward. She slightly smiled, probably trying to make it seem like I was good. Which made me think I was even more terrible...

Oh well! Up to them now!

Comment Below telling me what was an awkward situation with you at school.
Keep Smiling,
