Work in Progress

You oughta hear the mirror in my house You oughta fear her pretty, pretty mouth Says I’m imperfect in every way: “Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway”/...But I’m gonna burn, I’m gonna shine and multiply I’m gonna fill up the great divide You’ll never break me with all the things you say “Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway”

Surviving!

It's official.
Finals week is over. The crazy semester of insaneness and all things frustrating is done and over with, and I have survived!!! =D
The fact that I have absolutely nothing to do still weirds me out. I have laundry and packing to do for tour week, and I have to order some of the tools needed for marching band/instrument repair over May term, but that's it. Nothing is due. My classes are completely and entirely done...everything has been turned in...
I have no homework!!! This is amazing.
In fact, I really don't know what to do with myself...
My suiteys are still around, and I think we're watching a movie tonight. Megan O. is going to be around tomorrow (since she's in wind ensemble, too) and we're going to chill together pretty much all day...I think some Sweeney Todd viewing may be in order...
And then on Saturday we leave.
The past few days have been a lot of fun, aside from the random two hour blocks I've spent taking tests. I passed my sophomore barrier, which means I can "officially" start preparing for my junior recital. I also passed one of my piano basic skills things (only three more to go!).
Monday night Sarah and I were chilling and finishing up some of our homework when we decided we were hungry (this was at 945 ish at night) and made a spur of the moment McDonald's run with Rachel V and Leah. When we came back we watched The Princess and the Pea, and then goofed off (while listening to 90s music) for a very very long time before we finally departed and went to bed. It was randomly fun and happy. =]
And Tuesday night we ditched the Mensa and got Chinese for dinner, which is always happy.
Yesterday was the day of being done with everything. So Sarah and I went on a walk to celebrate the weather, getting slurpees along the way and being chased by bees later, and we watched Down Periscope, and Ghost Hunters for laughs, and then the Court Jester and it was a happy happy time.
It's been a rather good past couple of days.
I also finished Harry Potter 7 for the second time. I want to read it four more times (because I have to have read the books the same number of times each, otherwise it bothers me) and then this summer I'm going to go through all of them in a row. I think it will be very very odd to finish reading 7's epilogue, and then open book one when they're leaving baby Harry on the doorstep... =] *happy sigh*
In fact, Melissa is watching the Sorcerer's Stone right now and it was really odd to watch Harry open up the invisibility cloak at Christmas and not realize its importance...
Also, the fourth book in the Twilight series (Breaking Dawn) comes out in August!! wOOt! So I'll be rereading those books as well.
Tour week is coming. I'm still not sure how much I'm looking forward to it. I'm excited to see my aunt, uncle and two cousins at our Monday night concert, and excited for the day in Chicago. But concerts every day (one day with three), being places between 6 and 8 in the morning every day and wearing dress twos every day...not so much.
Ah well.
Then it will be May term, and I'll be marching...and I'll only have one class and not five...and there will be May term band. And many blog updates, as it has been requested that I keep tabs on the yuckiness of Mensa food, how often the grass is mowed and what goes on in band every day. There shall be much posting and it will be exciting. =D
And then it will be summer! I don't really know what I'll be doing, as I'm not sure whether or not I'll have a job, but we shall see. My wisdom teeth come out pretty much right away. And I'm taking a class to lighten my workload for next fall (at least a little bit).
But one large potential that I'm looking forward to is maybe trying to visit Sarah! It would be for a week to justify the six hour long drive and it will be awesome. It all depends on how my getting a car goes as well as having some gas money. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it works out, because it would be amazingly fun and happy. =]
AND DOCTOR WHO PREMIERS TOMORROW NIGHT ON SCI FI!!!!!! =]=]=]=]=]=]
I can't wait to be able to watch new episodes on tv instead of online, since sci fi is showing them two weeks later than the BBC instead of their normal several months. =] EEE!!!
Also, there is a movie on Sunday night at 8 on PBS based off of a Jane Austen novel that stars Daniel Radcliffe. My mom is tivoing it so I can see it when I come home at the end of May, since I'll be on tour and probably giving a concert that time on Sunday, but it looks good. And Daniel Radcliffe with a mustache? Haha! =]
I think that's about all I've got...
Nothing else that's too exciting is going on. Aside from laundry. THAT'S always a party. =P
