HAPPY 21ST ME-SHELL!!!

So what's new everybody?  The semester is winding down.  Music stuffs is going well.  I'm trying to plan a recital for next semester (which is my last in the studio eep!)  Nichol said today that he thinks he's going to give everybody A's because we all kicked bootay this semester.  (er... not the kicking booty part).

Things I have left before Thanksgiving break: perc tech, quartet, band, (Kodaly's cancelled), band concert, get help with conducting tomorrow morning (optional, but I'm taking it).  Then I'm coming home to pack and Ethan and I are taking off to Tawas after he gets done at 2.  We're spending Thanksgiving up there then coming back to Flint on Friday.  Then on Saturday Kimmie and I should go bug my mommy at work since for the first time in my life I am able to do that!  Yum.  I just finished some delicious chocolatey cake that Michelle's dad and sis made for her birthday.  After perc tech I'm going to go get her booze.  Yay booze!

The weekend of and the week after Thanksgiving is going to be a LOT of work.  I have to do the following: finish my paper for my special ed class, write a marching cadence (fun!!!), put together my perc tech notebook (dreary and loooooooooooooooong), write my PPP plan for Kodaly, write a program note and choose the piece I will be directing for my final in conducting, audition for concert band, audition for choir (?), conduct/take my conducting final, take/play for my perc tech final, study for and take my special ed final, write my huge final (essay and a lesson plan) for Kodaly, RELAX, and go to CHICAGO to see Paquito D'Rivera!!!  Then over the actual break, I'm going to the Midwest Conference which is also in Chicago!  W00t!!!

And now it's time for class.  Toodles!
