welcome to my blog, my life, my mind.

well hi there! i'm lani (that's pronounced lay-nee. please say it right). feel free to wish me happy sweet sixteenth on november first. i'm a sophomore at alhs, and i'm involved in way too many extra-curricular activities. band, choir, pep band, show choir, musical, student council, and also mock trial and basketball managing in a few months, all while attempting to maintain my 4.0 gpa. music is my life. i play tenor sax, flute, piano, some guitar, and--as laura never fails to remind me--kazoo. i'm also a singer. i live with my mom, dad, brother noah, and dog jack, in a house i've lived in for 15 years.

so, those are the basics. now it's time for me to type randomly anything that possibly comes to mind about myself.

my favorite number is 11. i have severe trypanophobia. i don't like large groups; if i'm hanging out with friends, i'd much rather be with one or two people, verses four or five or six. my favorite color is yellow. i sleep on my stomach. my favorite foods are cereal and pasta. taylor swift and paramore are my musical preferences. i wish i had more time in my life to read. my favorite books are; the burn journals by brent runyon, the book thief by markus zusak, night by elie wiesel and ida b by katherine hannigan. i take very good care of my african violet. when i can't sleep, i take out my book of secrets and writewritewrite! i'm very ocd at times. i hate surprises. i love compliments. it doesn't take much to make me smile. i could go on for hours about myself, but i'm sure that if you've made it this far, you're probably dying of boredom.
au revoir!
