I can't believe it's that time of year again. The blissful awakening. The period of serenity between finishing exams and discovering your lowly grades. Ahhh what bittersweet pleasures. Ok, so I'm not completely finished yet, I still have one exam left, but it was for an arts course about "The Fundamentals of Music"...so pretty much stuff I've been learning my whole life so far. Pretty easy? I say yes.
Lots has happened so far this December, and it is only the 11th. (2 weeks till Christmas!!!) I guess this will be just a quick update for all..no lengthy stories this time just key points. We'll see how it goes though..this paragraph is already way longer than planned.
- I discovered the other day when reading the French side of an egg nog carton that directly translated, it means "Chicken Milk". YUK!! That was a bit of a turnoff. Do I still drink egg nog? Indeed I do!!! By the way...how do you milk a chicken?
- It will be four years on Wednesday since my mom had cancer. Yahoo!! So as long as we dont have any shocking discoveries between now and then...it looks like we have to celebrate. One more year and she hits the big 5-year mark.
- This past weekend my grandma was in the hospital for tests. She hasnt been doing so well lately, but she was doing good enough to be sent home. I pray I can still spend at least one more Christmas with her before she dies. It's her favourite time of year.
- exams!! I never knew I could be so satisfied with a C in school. It means I pass!! YAY!!..although I'm still waitng for grades..so I dunno yet.
- SNOW!! WOOHOO!!! There is still a small lump by our drive-way...I should put it in the freezer and treasure it forever.
- I'm playing for a wedding on the 30th...I'm pretty sure I'm excited and I'm sure I'm terrified, I'm not gonna lie to you. This is my first wedding I've actually taken part in and I really dont want to screw up. I guess I should practise for a million hours or so.
- I am playing in Church on Christmas morning as well...just because all the better pianists are out of town. Hehe so they get stuck with me! SUCKERS!! Just kidding...hopefully that goes well. I love Christmas music.
- My dad got me an advent calendar...(because I bugged him about not getting me one)..and I realised they lost their charm to me. The chocolate is pathetic...not that Im a chocolate expert, I just know what I like. I feel old.
So I think thats about it. I probably forgot a bunch of stuff. But this is getting long enough. So I will spare you the time and energy.
Peace
Boersma out!
