So last saturday night i went to ravinia for a rachmaninoff concert where they did rhapsody on a theme by paganini which is one of my all time favorite pieces, and symphony 2 which was also awesome. I went with cheryl and david, amanda and aaron, marina, rafael and steve. Rafael got into a slight accident on the way:( but i think everything was ok. it was an AWESOME concert and a really fun time. we played guillotine thanks to rafael who brought it, ate yummy food, and totally enjoyed the show. the weather was awesome. yay for ravinia! and free for students. wahoo:)
Sunday we cleaned out our refrigerator, which took a while but its beautiful now. then was our orchestra concert, which was hands down the best one i've been in here yet- we played the prokofiev violin concerto wiht an AMAZING AMAZING soloist and tsaich 5 which is one of my alltime favorite symphonies. it was SO much fun.!!! and many of my friends came- tom, vikram, steve, matt, jess, david, chris and jon. it was so nice to see everyone there- it made me feel so good. :)
Monday at school we tried to do compression testing, but our samples were not perfectly rectangular prisms...After school was orchestra and we got out an hour early. wahoo :P made jess's cake and watched i love 1991.
Tuesday i spent the day making my samples "perfect"...which they aren't... and then was jess's birthday dinner at dixie's kitchen. we couldn't tell if our waiter was male or female...i think it was a he, but there was definitely much debate! cake at our place afterwards was fun as usual and we watched i love the 90s and the all star game. Talked to JMark on the phone too, which was nice, since i feel like i hadn't talked to him in a long time!
Today was busy too. Our new balance came today! yay! and we struggled through compression tests with our not quite perfect samples. more to come on that... and then volleyball which was of course fun. :) then more I love the 90s. i love summer!!!
