Christmas is REALLY almost here
It's finally snowing for real. It looks really cold out too, but luckily I have thermal pants to wear under my normal pants. Apparently the snow is late this year, but starting today it's supposed to snow almost every day for like a week. It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas... Speaking of which, Ryan has an advent calendar that his mom got him; under every little window there's a chocolate. Ryan used to hate chocolate, but now that he has this calendar, he loves it, and I'm not allowed to have any of it. I have almost all of my Christmas shopping done, and it's only the 4th! I still have a few things to finish up, though.
Friday night was the Myles Birthday Bash at Myles Hall, the dorm that I eat in. Everyone dressed up and there was a casino room with a lot of different Vegas style games. I tried to play poker, but none of my friends had ever played before, so it was too frustrating to play with them. One girl was dealt a straight, twice in a row, and she folded both times. Amateurs... I also got a henna tattoo, which I had never heard of, but apparently that's just me. I wanted to get my picture drawn, but the guy doing that left early, so the only thing left was getting a henna tattoo. Mine's a Chinese, maybe Japanese character on my wrist. I'll post pictures of the Bash as soon as my friend Michelle sends them to me.
I almost had my first orchestra rehearsal on Thursday, but when I got there, there was a sign saying it was cancelled. And I can't go to this week's practice because Ryan and I are seeing the Nutcracker on Thursday. We apparently have a concert in February, so it doesn't seem like there's that many rehearsals to go. The music looks easy though, so hopefully I'll be okay.
So I'm going to try writing more in this blog, it's kind of pointless if I just do it once every couple weeks. I've been so busy lately, I had a million assignments due this past week, but now the worst is behind me. I actually now have only one paper to write for the rest of the semester. Only about 2 weeks left... Crazy.
