Jed and I celebrated our couple's Christmas tonight. It was fun. We exchanged gifts (I got CD sheet music! Soprano Arias: The Ultimate Collection and Puccini Operas: The Vocal Scores) and he opened the gifts from my parents (he was very happy).

I totally just spent the last 1/2 hour playing with the Zwinky dolls. They are advertised all the time on myspace. So fun!

Dr. Marra told me on Sunday at Jan and Rian's recital to e-mail mp3s of my junior recital to Dr. Robert Harrison at Indiana. So I did (on Monday). Last night (Tuesday), she e-mailed me to say that Dr. Harrison had e-mailed her to say that he ( Read more... )

was fun. I went to the music one, not the theatre one. The theatre formal started at 6 and was broken up before 9 (so I heard). The music formal went all night and then some! I got home at about 3:30am. I drank a little bit when I first got there, then stayed sober the rest of the time so I could drive cool people home. After a lot of dancing and ( Read more... )

The inevitable happened: I tried to stay healthy and did everything I possibly could to stay healthy including staying inside, drinking lots of fluids, eating healthy, getting good sleep/rest, and I still got sick. This happens almost every fall and winter quarter. SUCK ASS ( Read more... )
