Waiting on Frances

Sep 04, 2004 19:50

The week came to a rather abrupt end this past Thursday when Judy Genshaft cancelled classes and closed the campus...what's going on and why?

1)Hurricane Frances is coming...the storm has spent most of the day spinning itself silly by West Palm. It does not seem to be wanting to go anywhere quickly. Now, it is expected to strike Tampa, what's left of it anyway. Condictions have been deteriorating throughout the day...

2)With no classes Friday-we have a 4 day holiday-and unlike my high school conterparts...I don't have to make them up.

3)As you have probably noticed...I've updated my journal...yes, after spending 70 dollars to send my 10 lbs HP Pentium 4 paperweight in the mail back to Naples, I picked up my new and improved HP Centrino Pavilion. This thing is actually cheaper than my last computer. Go figure...the only ability I lost was being able to plug my memory stick directly into my computer...I'll have to go home and grab my old cord this next Friday.

4)Classes are going well...here is the schedule
Monday-Wind Techniques and Pedagogy, Public Speaking
Tuesday-K12 Music Methods, Baroque and Classical, Band/Wind Ensemble Conducting, MUE Percussion
Wednesday-K12 Music Methods, Public Speaking, Wind Literature
Thursday-Baroque and Classical, Sax Masterclass, Sax Lesson, Conducting Lesson, MUE
Percussion
Friday-Wind Techniques and Pedagogy, Public Speaking, Sax Ensemble

5)So far (knocks on wood) I've been going to the gym four days a week (and now that I know how my schedule is...hopefully five times a week) since school started. Woot Woot! Rooks, you really should be a personal trainer lol...

We'll Scott and I already bought the colliegate version of "Emergency Hurricane Supplies"...thats basically what $50 bucks will buy total-25 each...we have the food...but batteries, flashlights, candles, and a few items of foil that we can turn into a defacto stove if need be...

We'll I'll prolly update later-after the storm with some LJ Picture Hour...

Holla!
