"Thanks for the memories..."

This blog is courtesy of 'Wrapped Emotions'. :o)

A favorite holiday memory of mine was when my whole family would get together and make gifts for our family friends, teachers, and extended family. We used to do everything from crafts (my mom is a crafty person, everything she touches is amazing!) to goodie plates with homemade banana bread, chocolate covered-sprinkle dipped pretzel sticks, and cookies, and other things that had personal meaning to our family.

I remember one year we made M'n'M dispensers, which were really fun! (I even kept one for myself, which I still have ;o) )

Outta my, outta my, outta my head...

Soooo...the semester has been over for a few weeks (YAY!) and I actually did pretty well with my grades. 4 A's, 3 B's, and a C..the C is in theory, but I'm just happy that I passed, because music theory is NOT the easiest class in the school. HAHA

I'm thinking that I'm going to bleach my hair out again...not really liking the whole tri-tone color-scheme that I've got going on, so I think I'll bleach it to platinum blond and go from there. (Most people don't know that I'm a natural blond anyway, just not THAT blond...most people have only seen me with dark hair...)

OMG, my fave fave FAVE a cappella group is going to be in Denver in Feb...sssSSSSSooo excited!!! I'm going to go if it kills me!!

  • to not be alone
  • to disappear

Silent music department hallway?

Yeah, I know...pretty much not possible right? Well it's pretty much true...finals are almost over, most of the students have left, and the only people left here are teachers wishing to be out of here as well. Technically, they can't leave until tomorrow afternoon anyway. HA! (not like I'm leaving to go anywhere like the majority of the students that go to this school...very few are actually from here).

Anyone doing anything exciting for the holidays? I'm not...picking up extra hours working on course packets at work...what fun. (a BIG yeah right on that one...can't you just see my eyes rolling in your mind?)

One of the GA's (graduate assistants) is playing a sax in the office across the hall from where I'm sitting (next to the only plug in the main music department hall where I can actually get an internet signal)...he's quite good, but it's still annoying. If I was the only one here I would definitely play some music, but like I said, there's teachers roaming about just in case the straggling student does happen to come in to chat for one thing or another.

Why am I sitting here waiting in the hallway? I have to retake my piano final, and I'm waiting for the teacher to show up so I can get the heck outta Dodge (in other words, go home and get some sleep before having to come back to campus for work at 3). After this, my finals will be done...yay! That means this semester is over!!!!!!
