apparently i haven't posted since finals
i didn't do so badly. all As and A minuses except for a B+ in history and a B+ in my lessons because i was having a bad health day on my jury, which brought down my semester grade of an A.
whatever. i'm over it.
lots happened over break.
christmas was nice. very low key at grandma's with the rest of the family, and dad got back a couple weeks later. that was the best part. yay dad!
i got drunk(ish) (GASP.) at calvin's new year's eve party with most (but unfortunately not all) of my favorite people in the world, and it was fun just because of the company. honestly, though, probably never again. i just don't like feeling that way. i like drinking things when they taste good, though. so we'll see.
libby had a kickass birthday party that i got to wear my christmas dress to and it was the best party everrrrrr. also i've been talking to libby more lately, it seems, and i very much enjoy it.
but. yeah. her party was fucking ace.
i got my driver's license january second! woo! i'll probably get a car this summer.
also, david and i broke up. it was one of the hardest things i've ever done in my life. probably the hardest. but i think it was for the better. i just didn't feel the same way anymore. i still love him so much, it just isn't the same. i think he understands that, and that i can't be the only happiness in his life, and is beginning to figure things out and make himself happy. i am very proud of him.
i'm now pseudo-talking to this boy named joe in moderation, considering circumstances. he is in a similar situation, so we are very much on the same page. but. whatever. it is a day by day sort of thing, i suppose.
this semester's fun. aside from voice/choir and piano and ear training, i am currently learning how to play the viola and the clarinet, and before the semester is over i will have also learned how to play the bass or the cello (i have to decide which), the trombone, and the trumpet. I am also in two music education classes in which we are doing partnerships once a week. one in upper elementary school and one in a high school. i love it and i'm learning so much. excitement abounds!
(i am also in a shitty educational psych class that isn't a hartt class, therefore it sucks and i hate the fact that i have to read a textbook full of common sense that is full of pointless technicalities that i have to memorize but will never ever use after this class, but i guess i'll survive. i mean...i made it through high school, right?)
yesterday i had an amazing tea party with charles and rachel and then we played with perler beads. i made hedgehogs. tehehe. charles and rachel are very fun to talk to for hours. i hope to see them more, with emily, also. because i miss and love her.
then i watched a movie with joe&lizzy&deals. they are my new hartt friends that i actually enjoy spending time with. and by that i mean they are more than acquaintances to do homework with. we actually hang out and have a good time, which i love, because they are lovely people.
not as lovely as pete, though. and i plan on hanging out with him tons more this semester. and probably over spring break. because i am not paying more than 500 bucks to go home for a week. sorry, guys. it just isn't worth it. and i have to stay here and take the praxis. but. yay pete!
dad and colin are checking out st. john's and fordham this weekend (my brother got a full ride to st. john's and possibly scholarships to the other) so hopefully i will be able to meet up with them somehow either in the city or just go to gramma's for the weekend since hartt audition days are friday and there is no class. rockin' awesome!
we will see how that plays out.
lastly. i am thinking about working up here this summer. at a summer camp or something. or maybe staying at my grandma's. the options are endless, honestly. so. we'll see.
i hope nobody read this whole damn post. have a good afternoon. i am going to the gym now.
whatever. i'm over it.
