I agree with you - I'll do my part and post more often. Perhaps Kathy has been having so much fun at school that she's forgotten us! Anyway, I thought I'd show you a little bit of book love.
First, the school books.
Can you believe that this stack is NOT the whole story? I bravely carried my Tonal Harmony textbook to school today. It is now tucked away in my locker. Those two history books are for one class. I have to carry the thicker one to school every Tuesday and Thursday. Awful.
Now, some knitting books. You might see something familiar.
It's so easy to read about and research something you love. Don't get me wrong, I love music but right now it's more school than passion right now.
Next time: a little more Music and a whole lot of SF Giants/Baseball.

A New Year's Resolution?
I'm determined to keep this alive, so I hereby make it a resolution to post AT LEAST once a month (uh, unless something serious happens to me). Please don't leave me alone on this resolution? lol. I do like what you did to the layout Amanda.. but I can't believe you risked your life for that picture. I guess there's a high value for that picture because of that haha. Nice job.
Your previous post sounds like the start of a busy semester.. 17 units sound like a lot already. Speaking of piano lessons, think you know of anyone possibly willing to give me alto sax lessons for cheap maybe over the summer? Like maybe $10-15/hr or is that too cheap? :D I'm also hoping to go on a missions trip this summer, preferably to China for a month or so and ideally with a medical side to it, but it may be tricky enough already just finding one. Maybe you guys can pray for me and keep your ears open? I'm also trying to see if I can get connected with something through UOP's Christian Fellowship group. Hopefully something comes up for me.
By the way, all I did at the meeting was eat for $5. All I got out of it was a cheap meal; can somebody please tell me why we're on the roll sheet for those meetings?
Sooooo.. I finally got around to this - a picture of part of my dorm room. I couldn't take a good picture of the whole side of my room showing much details, so here's the part of my side that I spend almost ALL of my time when I'm not in class, out, or sleeping: my desk area.
Special note to Amanda: see a familiar fuzzy, princessy, white, star-shaped decorative item in my picture? :) Yea, it's been up in my room all this time like I promised! I'll update on my semester thus far hopefully soon.

Dude, we suck at this.

I wish we could actually keep this up. Unfortunately, check the title. I mostly wanted to post so that I'd be able to say I did. Ja ja ja ja! School was bearable this week, mostly because I only had to go in Thursday and Friday. I'm actually only taking on 17 units this semester because the textiles class I wanted to take was at a really inconvenient time and I couldn't get into a music class that was the alternative.
After checking in with all my teachers this week, I'm glad I took it down 3 units. There's no way I would have had enough time to do well in all these classes. My English class will prove to be especially challenging. I have an essay due Monday. ALREADY! Anyway, I'm still going to be swamped because I need to bring my theory grade up (I got a B- in the fall) and I should really be practicing more. Also, I'm going to try and take private piano lessons so I can pass out of it at school.
Well, that's all for now. I'll add some pictures in a bit.
