Concert Day

What a day. At least it didn't drag on and on like yesterday did. i guess the phrase if you have a bad Monday, the rest of the week is true. so much stress though. one minute your relaxed and thinking everything is good. and then you look at your calander and you have three test and dont know where they sprang up from. then you can add the concerts to that. since it's around the midterms week of course concerts are involved. i have two of them. orchestra and band. well the band one was tonight. i love playing in the concert hall. it makes us sound much better. at least i think it does. in reality it can also make us sound much worse, but who knows? the concert went well. i wouldnt say that the music we played was my favorite but some of it was still fun. i can wait till we start the next concert music. hopefully we can get alot of fun music.

Bad Day

What is it about bad days that can tear you down. because i can say right now that i've had loads of better ones. it was one of those days that if someone asks you to pick out one single event that made it bad you cant. because as indivdual activies it wasnt all that bad. but when you put them all together it was enough to push you to the ground and want to give up.
But onto a happier note. i had a piano lesson today i have 3 pages put together with 2 more to go and i'm feeling rather accomplished. i love the song i'm playing it's called Doctor Gradus and Parnassum by Debussy. i'm really liking it because it's a fast melodic song. definetly a fun combination.
tonight was also family home evening. lots of fun as usually. i love hanging out with all my church friends. and each time i go i meet a new person so it makes it funner and funner to go each time. i really like something that our teacher said. She said, "the world doesn't revolve around us, it revolves around everyone but us." i think that if everyone were to follow this philosophy our world would be a much happier place because everyone would be serving each other and not just thinking about themselves.

Sunday Lunches

Oh 9:00 church. As some would put it it's a blessing in disguise. And most of the time it's true. But I'm glad that no matter what time i have church i can still go. I love the friends that I have in my ward, and we also have an amazing bishopric and fun teachers. Another really good part about sunday is getting to spend time with some of my friends. We have kind of made up a tradition of having lunch together and just talking, having fun, and eating. It's funny the things that can happen. For instance today we had navajo tacos and scones. To save on some time we bought some bread dough that was premade. My friend took it out of her freezer last night and left it out to defrost. Imagine our suprised when we came back and it had burst open the bag and spread out about six inches out of the bag. We had alot of fun cooking up the scones though. :D

College ups and downs

wow you have got to love the ups and down of college. it's amazing how you can go from one minute to loving everyone and the next wondering what happend to the love you were having everyone. it's amazing what good friends can do for you as well. they strengthen you, bring you up, and make you smile when you dont want to smile. and while i'm at it, having a cell phone is amazing also because you can get in touch with whoever you want to. for me i'm glad to have mine because it's a easy way to get in touch with my family and to keep in touch with them.
