Well...

Well... I'm gonna try and make an effort to keep up on some blog, I think i'm gonna delete my xanga account, just because I rarely use it,  school and facebook get all my time...
 
It's been interesting the past few days around here... Danie came up and visited, and it was a fantastic time. Chamber Singers went to Brookings last Thursday for the SDMEA Music Convention.  We rocked the house.  I was invited to go home next weekend to sing in a recital for the Relay for Life at my home church. It should be ok, I'm not performing anything from memory because they didn't give me enough notice and i don't have anything ready to sing from memory.  Oh well... fore warning would be nice... you know more then a week, but whatever that's what i get i guess... then there was the thing with the accompanist, she couldn't play it... it is very easy stuff... i could sit and practically sight read it... oh well... i got someone else to play for me...
 
I joined a church choir... my voice professor conducts it... he asked me to join because he wants to have a couple weekends off, to get outta town... so i'll get to jump in and conduct those days... i don't think i'm ready... but he thinks i am... so sweet for me... plus... it's 70.00 each time i conduct, so woot for me.
 
Well, ttyl

wells its been a while

Well its been awhile since i used this one... everyone should continue to check out my xanga account.

Well i officially switched to be a voice major... i don't remember if i typed that any where... woods wants me to sing in solo class... to make it worse this semester... to make it worse.. within a couple of weeks... i'm no were ready for it!!! but he has faith in me... i'm like can't it wait till next semester i can sing in one of the first ones... then to make matters worse i'm getting sick... because of lack of getting to sleep at a normal time... and i layed down to watch a movie and fell asleep, woke up to the end of it... put in a new one fell asleep and woke up to my dvd player have shut itself off... Sam came in shortly after i got up and felt my forehead... i have a fever... damnit... that really means i'm getting sick so i went to the store to get soup and stuff... so i think i'm gonna call home and see when my parents are coming up next and have them buy me some more soup at hand stuff...

thats about it... wish me luck on gettin better!!!

Update

So we got my RA (JASON) arrested.. go me.. that ought to learn you to not talk to me..  Sam was in her debut theatre production "THE CRIPPLE OF INISHMAAN" sam rocked her part (Eileen) out with no problems that i could tell.. jody said there was on spot.. don't listen to her sam it was awesome *high 5* sam....

So last weekend i got sick..went to joshs house to watch movies and hang out.. we watched without a paddle.. then we to get ice cream for his lil bro, then dropped him off at home.. went to the mall.. which was closed.. so we went to barnes and noble..woot for bookstores...it started sometime after we left josh's (hi josh, if you see this) house and before we (kristi and i) woke up the next morning (er.. later that morning) for the SDMEA Convention (yay band geeks!! and there directors..) the concert was really good.. minus the fact that the clarinets missed a few notes.. oops.. and bob kept squeaking.. (wtf.. he's graduating with a degree in clarinet, why are you still squeaking).  i thought LaFave (our fearless leader, and dean of fine arts) head was gonna explode.. all i could see is that vein in (on, literally on his forehead) was gonna explode.. and i'm sitting under his nose.. i was like ahh!! please don't get blood on my tux.. then we went back to SF grubbed down.. walked the mall.. etc.. normally SF crap.. coldstone.. then we went back to Jody's house.. and had  another movie/DDR/friends nite.. i have never felt so sore in my life.. and jody's friend eric's (hopefully i spelt it right) friends came over.. and hell almost broke out on earth.. they started wrestling at like two in the morning.. wtf.. i was half unconcious.. they apologized for waking me up.. and continued to fight.. i was paranoid that they were gonna land on me and kill me.. jody kept telling me to go to bed in the downstairs bedroom.. i'm like i'm ok.. tasha kept trying to hump my leg.. till eric got there.. (normal for tasha to act like that, so i've been told).  so they left about 3am... jody and kristi stayed up and talked for awhile.. i listened for awhile.. said one thing that pertained to the converstation.. then crashed.. woke up at noon thirty.. got ready.. and at 2ish.. we all loaded up.. and jody's family met us at huhot.. i love huhot.. so good.. and we had a big dinner/supper... were jody's dad.. paid for everyones meal again... jody's dad rocks my face off.. so much... you rock!!! and i hope i don't scare you to much... (if you ever see this!!... hint hint hint.. jody show your dad).. then we drove back to aberdeen.. i slept from trent off-ramp to about the middle between brookings and watertown ish someplace around there.. it was kinda icky weather.. rainy.. when we hit watertown it was really foggy.. and jody slowed down to under the speed limit and yet.. despite the weather we still made it back to aberdeen in just over three hours..

until next time.. (next will maybe be sophomore field.. then random stuff... new orleans... easter)....

i wanna cry

so today was pretty cool till oh lets say 1:45ish this afternoon.. roughly the last 15 minutes of ed psyc... i left that class on the brink of a mental breakdown... our professor has the crudest sense of humor.. for cheese (other words that i might use!!) act more professional lady... thats what you expect from us, so you should do the same... she said that lower income families child do not do well in school because they lack motivation.... wtf.... thats were i come from.. the lower middle class.. or extremely high lower class... sam feels the same way.. look at us.. two prime examples of "the nonmotivated" class.. sam left and found a bathroom and cried after class... like i mentioned earlier i left on the brink of a mental breakdown... it really made me wonder do i really wanna teach after all... i just finished practicing piano because that relieves some stress.. but typing this up makes it come back.. i need sugar.. good thing that my friend jen is taking me to culvers.. so i can get some custard... and later i'm going back with the "siren" to get more...

do i really wanna teach.. its sending me really close to the brink of insanity...

ARREST YOUR RA (well my RA) GOOD LUCK JASON

so each RA has a cup at the front desk with there names on them... the RA that has the most change (or money) in the cup at the end of the week will get a chance to be arrested by the campus cop.. WOOT!!... well it was a hard decision for me because all of the RAs here rock, and i have not had a problem.. so for laughes.. i put all the change i had in my room.. in my RAs cup.. i think i filled the cup to about 2/3 full.. lol.. well.. jason (my RA) just went to do some laundry.. and he thanked me... he thinks he's gonna get arrested... if he gets arrested i'll gladly skip some of speech next week to watch it happen... i hope they get zapped, thrown against the wall, maced, etc.. it'll make for a fun time.. GOOD LUCK JASON!!!
