Guess where Dailey Hailey's going!
I'll give you a hint:
Click here for the hint!
Answer: AUSTRIA!
I'm also going to Germany and Switzerland but I didn't have an awesome musical number for those :) About a year ago my orchestra teacher let anyone who wanted to (that was in the orchestra) sign up to go on a trip to Europe during the summer of 2011. Well the summer of 2011 is now here and I leave tomorrow! I'm very excited but a tad nervous. I've ridden on planes many many times but I still don't like them. They freak me out. Plus I don't like long plane rides. I don't sleep well in the up-right position, but it will be worth it! I promise to post pics when I return. I will be gone for ten so I'm sorry I will not be able to post during those ten days but I promise to post when I return and the jet lag has subsided.
In other exciting news (well exciting for me, you probably don't care.) I got a job yesterday! I am now going to be an employee at a golf course in my town. I get to work in the sun and wash carts and pick up golf balls and re-fill water coolers but its still a job and I'm happy to do it :) Well not much else to say other than that, so I'll metaphorically see you in ten days! :)
God Bless

School, Shopping, Theatre, And A Happy Book
I hate this end of school, dragging on, slower that a slug pulling a 20 pound weight along sand period. My school gets out June third so I'm down to 8 school days!!! It feels like forever though. Its like in those movies where someones dreaming or something and their running down a hallway but it never gets any shorter. Doors are rushing past you but you never seem to make it any farther down the hall. If I'm that person running I am starting to lose my stamina and I'm about to pass out! Most of my teachers aren't too bad. Keeping it simple, not too much homework, and what-not. The only problem is my English teacher/ class. Somehow she thinks we are going to finish the book The Chosen in 8 days. We were supposed to read the first four chapters by today and from everyone I talked to, I'm pretty sure I'm one of two of the people who actually read the chapters. I'm also pretty sure I'm the only person who did the worksheets. We had four chapters and 3 worksheets due today plus I had an Algebra test this morning, ugh! so basically I was up until midnight and still didn't get all the work finished. I did finish the work this morning but I'm now sleep deprived and worn out. This was not my first late nighter from English in the last two weeks either. Last week the band Third Eye Blind was having a concert in my town. Considering no one cool ever comes to my town I had to go. I bought two tickets (one for me and one for my cousin Marissa) the day they went on sale. I was SO excited! Then my English teacher assigned a project on Wednesday that was to be due Friday and the concert was Thursday. Crap. So what did I do? Blow off the project like most teenager coming home from a concert at 10:30 PM tired and with a stomach ache? Nope. That annoying little goody-two-shoes inside of me was screaming "NO! You must finish your project! You can't turn it in late! NO!" So, I stayed up until 2 AM that night and still did not finish the stupid project. AND I had already worked on it for 5 hours before I even went to the concert. So I worked on it all day in any free time I could possibly scrounge up during the school day. Then after 10 hours of works, sleep derivation and my hand looking like a bag of skittles from the magic markers I used, I was finally done with the project. So to sum up all this rambling and ranting I just did: English sucks, I'm an extreme goody-two-shoes, and school cannot end fast enough! Phew sorry about that, I needed to let that go before my brain exploded like a grape being sat on by the worlds largest (and heaviest) teddy bear.
Now that I'm back to a normal brain functioning state, I can tell you about my weekend. I had a great weekend!!!! Friday night me, my mom, my dad, and Drew watched Tangled. Have you seen that movie!? I love that movie!!! IT was the third time I've seen it and I still laughed out loud! **SPOILER ALERT! IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN TANGLED DO NOT READ THE SECTION IN ITALICS** So I feel the need to share my favorite parts of this movie with you. So favorite song? I've Got A Dream. My favorite scene? When Rapunzel and Flinn are in the boat and they are completely surrounded by the floating lights! So cool! I decided after that, that my wedding will have a ton of lights! So many lights you may say there are too many lights!!! (If you haven't already guessed I love lights.) You know I think I'm going to write a blog post about my dream wedding someday but for now back to Tangled. The funniest part in my opinion? When they go into the Snuggily Duckling (I love snuggily ducklings.) and she meets all the thugs and they sing about what their dreams are. My favorite thug? It's a tie between the one who collects unicorns and the one who wants to be a mime. Favorite character? Pascel the camelion, I love him. Favorite quote? "Is that blood in your mustache sir? Look at this Blondie, look at all the blood in this mans mustache. That is a lot of blood." said by Flinn. Ok I'm done now. Back to my weekend. That Saturday I was woken up at 7 AM (ugh!) and me, my mom, my aunt, and my cousin Marissa headed off to this city a few hours away from my town. The entire way there my mom and aunt were singing oldies. Most teenagers and young adults would be completely embarrassed and be driven out of their minds by this but me and my cousin loved it. We were singing right along with them. Songs by the Carpenters, The Four Seasons, George Harrison, and many others. Once we finally made it to our destination we went shopping. The enjoyable pass time of many girls around the world. We shopped and shopped and shopped. I got to go to Urban Outfitters. Have you been to that store? I love that store! I wish we had one in my town. Finally we had to leave so we headed to our hotel to change and then met my aunts two friends to go eat then we went to see.... *Drum roll* Jersey Boys!!! If you don't know what that is, I'm sorry. I loved that show! It's now tied for my second favorite musical with The Music Man after Legally Blonde the Musical. If you know me and my love for musicals that is a very high honor. The show was amazing!!!! Great music, great story great acting! If you haven't heard of it here is an informational video. Watch it and be informed:
Like I said, I loved it! Then after the show we were parked next to the stage door and when we were walking to our car we saw the guys leaving and I got all four of their autographs!!!! It was awesome! Just FYI the guys in the video are not the ones I saw. I saw a different cast but I loved the cast I saw. The next day all we did the next day was again shopping. We went to a different mall and shopped and shopped and shopped. It was awesome. I ended up buying this thing called The Happy Book. Its full of all kinds of prompts for you to write about what makes you happy. I decided to share a couple of the prompts with all of you when I find one I really like so you can all do it with me! I will also share some of my answers to the prompt :) Well I've written a lot and if you've made it this far I thank you! and congrats on being a Dailey Hailey super fan! I'll end with my first Happy Book prompt :)

"Pay attention and you will see how genius creates a legend." -Shakespeare in Love
Ello :)
So I'm listening to Disney music and its making me very happy :) I know I've said this before but if 1. you don't have a Pandora then GET ONE! and 2. As soon as you get one or if you already have one you MUST make a Walt Disney station. It is amazing!!! I love Disney <3 <3 <3 I own almost every old Disney movie you can think of, except Beauty and the Beast. I used to own it but then my dad didn't check the VHS before he taped something not as important as Beauty and the Beast over it :( I cried. At least he didn't tape over Cinderella, I would have killed him if he did. Its my favorite Disney movie. Bibitty Bobitty Boop!
I'm kinda on a movie high lately. I have three movies that I really want to see. Their all dramatic which generally isn't my style but I want to see these so bad!!!!
1. Shakespeare In Love. Its a movie I've already seen some of, but not all of it. It was my inspiration for my World History paper (that I have yet to start), which is the history of theatre/ Elizabeth I. I love theatre! I've seen many plays in my days, even some Broadway plays (ex. Legally Blonde the Musical, The Lion King, The Music Man). I'm currently interested in seeing the opera La Boheme.
2. The Phantom of the Opera. Its a classic and I have a couple friends who love it so I want to see it. I'd also LOVE to see it as a play of course, but ill start with seeing the movie. Is there any plays and/ or musicals you want to see?
3. Les Miserables. I had already seen the very beginning once when a connection was made to the beginning in my Sunday school class. Then this past week my World History teacher showed us the first 30 minutes of it. Now I really want to see the rest of it. I also wouldn't mind seeing the opera as well :)
As you can see from all this I am also on a theatre high. But I'm always on that :) If you are wanting to see a show I could suggest many: Legally Blonde the Musical (my favorite), The Music Man (my 2nd favorite), The Putnam County Spelling Bee, Beauty and the Beast, Lion King, Beatles Love by Cirque du Soleil. Plays I want to see that you might too: Wicked, Mary Poppins, American Idiot, Rain: A Tribute to the Beatles, Mamma Mia, Wonderland, Viva ELVIS Cirque du soleil. Also there's Jersey Boys, I'm getting ready to see that one. Me, my mom, and my aunt are planning a trip to a near by town that its coming to soon :)
My favorite play is Leagally Blonde the Musical, I have the CD soundtrack, a T-shirt, a big button! I love it! I went and saw it a year ago. My mom got me tickets for my birthday. One of the best gifts I've ever received :) I sang along throughout the whole play! I wish my school theatre department would do it, I would try out for it in a heart beat! My friend Sydney also loves it, we both think our high school should do it and we'd both try out and we think she should get Paulette and I should get Elle. We know all the words to all the songs, a lot of the lines, and we sing it... well a lot, lol.
Well I think I've rambled enough for now.
God Bless
