Seems like so many of my posts start that way. Well...so much has happened since the last time I wrote. For anyone that doesn't know, the trip to the shore ended in tragedy, with my Bubbie dying only a few hours after I got there. It was peaceful though, with all of my family by her side and us getting to tell her we love her and kiss her over and over again. Even Greg made it only minutes before she passed, and was a true lifesaver, along with Travis, and made the whole ordeal a little easier to deal with.
Now one month has passed, along with what would have been my Bubbie & Zayde's 56th wedding anniversary. They both happened this past week, along with what seemed to be a horrible week for everyone. Between sickness, tragedy, and just a ton of work to do everyone has just been miserable.
But with the bad comes the good as well. Classes are going well and I have gotten As on all my assignments, tests, and quizzes so far. I still don't know how I pull that off with little to no sleep, but somehow I do.
I made it into the Madrigals Singers as well. It has been a goal of mine for awhile now, especially over the summer with both of my grandmothers wishing the best for me on my audition. Since I did successfully make it (the only alto, thank you) I AM GOING TO SPAIN FOR SPRING BREAK! I am going with an absolutely amazing group of singers and friends, as well as my Zayde, who is tagging along as a memorial to my Bubbie, whose wish it was to go to Spain and never got the chance.
Shippensburg's First ever PrideFest is this coming Saturday, October 1st from Noon-2 am in the CUB. It is finally coming together and I hope and expect it to be a big success. EVERYONE COME AND BRING YOUR FRIENDS! We are having vendors, a wall bashing, workshops, gay bingo, Eric Himan and Andy Moore performing (who are both absolutely amazing performers...as well as Eric being GEORGEOUS!), and one of our famous dance parties at night. There is still alot of work to be done, but that is to be expected. It will all come together and it should be a day to remember.
Other than that, I am busy as always with Choir, Madrigals, SALE, Hillel, Pi Nu (rush this week...anyone interested? contact me!) and everything in between. And that is just the normal week stuff. But it keeps me busy, never a dull moment.
Well...must get back to work. Sooo much to do and must stay healthy and well for the weekend.
P.S.--Can't wait for people to come visit me! Greg and Lauren are coming Halloween weekend!! I am so excited!! :-D Updates on definate plans to follow...but parties are definately in the works!
P.P.S.--Hope really needs a good straight boy to give her attention...anyone know anyone??
