Updates, updates

So, I've been rather neglectful of this page as of late. Or at least it feels like it.

Time's flying this year, and then at the same time it's taking For Ev Er for tomorrow, for the weekend, for break to come. I can't wait to get home for Christmas. It'll be soooo weird. I almost feel like I'm out of practice for flying. Almost. But in the meantime I've got other delightful things to look forward to and to help me get through all the work I have to do.

I'm applying to be an Area Coordinator. I don't think I'll get the job, but I may as well give it a shot. Lord knows mom and dad will appreciate the extra benefits. And it might mean that I don't necessarily need to make as much money during the summer. Plus I think I'd do a good job. So we'll see what happens. I already have a new plan of attack for the beginning of next school year. I have a pretty good idea of what I'm going to do differently, and what I'm going to do the same.

I'm going to the Tridentine Mass today, at 4:15. Then from there I"m going to my last Youth Ministry class. Praise God!!! I'm so sick of that. The only reason why I took it this semester was so that I could have another part of the requirements to get the youth ministry concentration. So I have something practical to do with a theology degree. *shrug* Whatevs. I'll never have to sit in Tony's class again, and that's really enough reason to celebrate.

I'm turning 20 on Thursday. It's scary as all hell, lol. I won't be a teenager anymore, it's like I've got no excuse to be irresponsible. Entry into young adulthood. One year closer to kicking the bucket. The one thing I really don't like about it is that my birthday falls during finals week or dead week, one of the two. That makes it harder to celebrate, with all the work everyone is doing. But hey, I don't want much. Go out to Friendly's for icecream with the girls, enjoy the gift my parents sent me (hmmm..it might be here today. :D) Just be with my friends and have a good day. What do I want, though? Psh, I just told you. Although I definitely appreciate gifts, I also understand that we're all college students here, and that frankly I don't often 'gift' other people for their birthdays. Kayla doesn't count. All I really want is to have a good day. Anything else is just icing on the cake.

I miss people. A few different people. I really can't wait to see all of you again. and I'm fairly certain you all know who you are.

I had my fall band concert last night. It's wasn't incredibly awesome, but it was sooooo much fun. I live for that stuff. IT was....EPIC. :-D AND I played it all on a new reed too! AND my chops didn't die until halfway through Water Music, and even then I was able to hold on through the rest of the piece. And O Magnum Mysterium is officially one of my favorite songs ever. Man oh man, I love that stuff. More of you will have to come to our spring concert. Sadly, we only do one per semester. Oh well.

Oh, and apparently I'm both librarian AND manager for pep band. Cool. I have an awesome title. I guess that means I'm more obligated to make it work. But on the other hand, I can stick it in my signature. :)

Anyway, haha, I need to get going. Maybe I'll get a nap in....probably not.
