Odd ‘n Ends

WHEW!

I made it through the week of death!  And I didn’t die!  I was actually strangely calm.  I have this theory that I had SO much stress that I just blew my stress fuse, and then everything just bounced off of me.  When only one bus showed up instead of 2, did I stress?  When people at Festival lost all my Festival tapes, did I freak out?  When poor PV had to read 7 to a part, did I wig?  When I showed up to school and my festival forms had disappeared...the ist goes on an on.  And in the end, both Symphonic and Concert Orchestras at PV walked away with superiors!  W00t w00t!

Honor Orchestra went to Disneyland.  I was sitting with one of the cello players when I saw somebody wearing….are you ready?....a cake hat!  It was a hat…that was cake!  Needless to say, I got very excited, and proceeded to point and say, “Oh my gosh!  I must have that hat!”  But when I went to the Emporium, sadly I couldn’t find it!  NOooo!  I was pouting, when the cello player walked up to me and said, “I got you a present!”  And she proceeded to hand me the cake hat!!!  XD  I wore it the rest of the day (despite annoying people pawing at my hat and trying to turn on the lights).

The next day I drove the uHaul 3 whole miles.  Oh yes.  It’s very large….and I drove very slowly. 

I attempted to dye my hair blue.  Well, I attempted to have my hair professionally dyed blue.  Funny thing about that.  If you bleach your hair for highlights, and then dye it the “blue” that the salon has….did you know that your hair ends up looking exactly the same as when you walked in?  I was so sad.  My hair is not blue at all, and I’m horribly disappointed.  I think this is just fate telling me I’m not meant to have blue hair (since this is not my first attempt).  My hair dresser (Francisco) was also very disappointed, and said that I didn’t have to pay.  Oh well.  No harm done.

Other than that…I’m sleeping!  Nothing like 10 – 11 hours of sleep every single day.  I go to sleep somewhere between 12 and 12:30 at night, and wake up around 11am.  It’s a wonderful life.  I’m not sleepy all the time!  Go figure!  I’ve still been pretty busy, though.  And now I have to do my taxes =P  This year I’m taking it to someone instead of attempting to do it myself.  I tell ya, you think you’re an intelligent person, you do well in school…and then you try to do your taxes and you feel horribly moronic.  Not this year!

Oh, and my car broke L  The “check engine” light went on, and I just had to pay a bunch of money to turn it off.  SO lame.  If I have to get a car in the near future, I’ve picked one out: The Hyundai Tucson (In “brilliant copper” which just is a fancy way of saying…ORANGE!).  I find it amusing that there’s a Hyundai Tucson.  That’s like….a Toyota Texas, or a Ford Taiwan.  Maybe that’s just my way of seeing things, though.

Happy Break, everybody!

Bravo!!

2 down, 5 to go!  PV had their concert tonight…

Concert Orchestra…all I can say is dang.  You guys sounded SO good.  I was so proud of you guys.  You rocked it.  You sounded awesome.  At the beginning of Sinfonia…the sheer force of volume shocked me.  I was actually surprised.  I thought 1sts could’ve been louder, and cellos could’ve been louder, too.  But overall I thought everybody sounded amazing.  I think you guys really impressed the audience.

Symphonic Orchestra, I KNOW you impressed the audience.  Did you hear the reaction when you ended?  Despite the fact that my parents were the ones who were standing up and clapping, I thought it went well. 

Okay.  I’m going to bed because it’s late and I have to wake up and do Honor Orchestra tomorrow.  But good job everybody!  XD

Winding Down Before I Break

So busy.  SOOOO BUSY!  But I feel it’s important to take moments in your daily life to relax and do what makes you happy.  Today I decided to take one of those silly online tests.  And here are the results to the “WHAT KIND OF CAKE ARE YOU” quiz:

You Are a Marble Cake

Eclectic, inventive, and peaceful.
You are never willing to accept what's "normal." You live to push the envelope.
You find it hard to make up your mind. You prefer to have everything you want, right away!

I’m not sure what the other options were…but Marble Cake sounds pretty yummy.  I’m not sure if it describes me….and again, who doesn’t prefer to have everything they want?  What are we supposed to want?  What we don’t want?  That’s just silly.

I’m getting ready for bed, but I’m still hearing music in my head from rehearsal tonight.  I got home a little after 9:00 and am contemplating if it is now too late for some GIRL SCOUT ICE CREAM!  It’s so good.  Seriously.  Tagalong ice cream.  Best thing ever. 

Otherwise it has been a pretty frustrating day.  The morning was fine, but then something happened…. I’m not quite sure what.  Everything just got worse by worse, and by the end of school I was all sorts of annoyed and grouchy.  And then I went to a meeting and…got even grouchier.  I was worried that rehearsal would be abysmal, considering the path I was on, but as usual, music cheered me up.  When it’s good music, it always lifts my spirits, without fail.
