I just realized that nearly half of my summer “break” is gone and I’ve finished none of my plans *sigh*.

FRIDAY.JUNE.2:

...my family headed down to **San Diego** for my piano recital at the Music Teacher's Association of California state convention @ the Town and Country Resort & Convention Center... it was very nice there, and I actually played my Dello Joio piece well despite not practicing it for months.

Normally, I have to hurry through my work every night in order to get to bed as early as possible, so that I have a decent amount of energy to get myself up the next morning & swim.

My blasted internet has decided to load at a rate of 1pg per 10min, so given the little time I have to be @ the computer doing non-schoolwork, I can't reply to comments right now. *sniff* I miss my Bethy and Karli (my two faithful LJ commenters)! Co counts, too, but she's not online much these days :P ( Read more... )

My family will be off camping this Wed-Sun, so pray we have fun & that no one gets mauled by a bear or other form of angry/hungry/injured/rabid/irritated beast. Four days without running water, electricity, internet, or music. eesh ( Read more... )

Today = LAYO end of year pool party! ^_^ Fun fun fun, even though none of the guys came and I had to leave early. boohoo... #of people pushed into pool [by me] = two. muahaha... only about 8 of my peanut butter cookies were left of the 4 doz.+ I brought. I guess they're pretty harmless to consumers after all. ;P ( Read more... )
