Busy, Busy

Wow, I haven't actually updated in over a month... Sorry. School is intense-ish. But I'm enjoying it. AP Euro especially. I just wish I had more geeky friends in my classes to share my odd excitement with. Oh well. I'm just destined to be a loner.

I just came back from a Pep Band thing. And, contrary to Priscila's opinions, I had a lot of fun. I have my days where I feel social and confident, and I think this was one of those days. And I'm also glad I didn't get beat up at Palmdale High tonight... We've had our first couple of football games, and they've been pretty fun. We have to, I mean "get to", play for AVC tomorrow night.

Last Saturday I went and hung out with some clarinet people at Sheena's house. I had a lot of fun. (Hey, fun is becoming a trend now. That's cool!) Then on Sunday Josh and I went to her church. I hadn't been to another church's service in a really long time. I really enjoyed it. It was really down to earth, and... informative? It was good...

Thanks to Emily, I've found a new obsession. She's a signer names Regina Spektor. She has such a pretty voice, but she twists it and puts it to the weirdest rhythms. I really like her music, even if it is a little odd. This is her myspace, with a few songs on it. Here's a youtube video of one of my favorite songs of hers so far.

After my mom called me a loser she told me to get a facebook. (I'm twisting the story, she didn't call me a loser directly.) So the other day I conformed and got one. I don't find it all that entertaining, sorry to say... I don't really get it. That and I don't have enough time or patience to figure out what I'm doing. And I don't even have any pictures of my face to put in my facebook...

This year I'm auditioning for Tournament of Roses at PCC. I'm nervous, but I'm not necessarily expecting to make it this year. I just want the experience to be able to do better next year. I'm playing Mozart's Quintett, even though I only got the music on Monday. Apparently half of our clarinet section just at QH is trying out. So we'll see how that turns out... I'm excited to get the whole process done and over with.

Umm. Band... School... Band... I don't think there's much more too my life. I think I need a new one. I'll try to update more frequently now. Sorry for the delay.
