Bleah

Ick, last night I came down with a sinus infection or something... I'm really sick now, sore throat, stuffy nose, all that wonderful stuff.

On the bright side we finished all of our end of the year testing today! It is also now only 10 days until we leave for Tennessee! And ... approximately 45 until we move there. O.O That's hard to imagine!

I had to look over my whole online school today for a web design assignment to evaluate my school's site and I found another course I want to take! =P Computer programing! So I'm signed up for that and awaiting a teacher and class. ^_^

Yesterday I had a viola and violin lesson... I had them on Thursday instead of Saturday because I have to perform in a huge four + hour concert on Saturday. Anyways, Mom let me get two books of pieces to play just for fun (she actually picked them out while I was in my lesson. =P ). She chose a solo book for 'The Sound of Music' and a LotR book! */wee smilie*

The pieces in the sound of music book are: Do-Re-Mi, The Sound of Music, Maria, My Favorite Things; Edelweiss, The Lonely Goatherd, Sixteen going on Seventeen, So Long, Farwell, and Climb Ev’ry Mountain. Those in the LotR book are: FotR) The Prophecy, In Dreams, Concerning Hobbits, Many Meetings, The Black Rider, (TT) Gollum’s Song, Rohan, Evenstar, Forth Eorlingas, (RotK) Into the West, Steward of Gondor, and Minas Tirith!

It's awesome. ^_^ I played through all the LotR pieces and managed to get them all sounding something like what they're supposed to. =P And I'll take them to my teacher on Wednesday and ask her to play them for me so I can know exactly how they're supposed to sound. Fortunately a CD came with both books! And so I can hear what it sounds like... kind of... the one in the LotR book is the violist playing with the whole orchestra and the Sound of Music is the accompaniment so it's just for me to play along with, not viola part is played...

And as for the violin, my teacher says I'm excelling in it. I'm also half way through the second book (in just three lessons. =P) and will soon be moving on to the third! */wee smilie* Hehe

Right now I'm drinking some tea and trying to feel better in time for the concert tomorrow, I don't want to be sick for that. I'm going to go work on HW (The acronym for a story I'm writing with a friend) now and I'll post more tomorrow!

No more rambling than mine. :P

Computer programming? Nice...

:D You've really got me excited about the LOTR music. Nice job in violin!

"It should be getting around teatime. At least, in decent places where there is still tea time." hehe. *scampers off*

You're working on HW? Good girl! *passes a Thin Mint*

That's true. =P

Yeah. =D I'm hoping Clefy can help me if I run into any trouble with it, too. ^_^

Lol, JF. I hope I don't burst your bubble when I play it badly. =P

Hehe, Um... I was... going to? But... I just got it written in my head, and that's all. :6: I guess that's a start, anyway.
