Is It Better to be Busy??

It is only the 3rd week into school and I am already so incredibly busy it is not even funny. I am seriously going all the time. I am sure all of people are like that. I have so many classes. Especially the music classes that you need to practice for. That is what takes up most of my time. I am grateful for being busy though. It beats having to find something to do. Have I told all the classes I am taking? Well, I will right now.

1. Physics
2. Intro to Stats.
3. Writing about Literature (english class)
4. Symphonic Band
5. Symphony
6. Flute Choir
7. Mens Chorus

That is about all the classes I am taking but I still have a few extra curricular activites.

1. Piano Lessons
2. I work as an accompanist to people who are taking vocal lessons.
3. I have to work on a piece for a festival. I get paid for that. That is a good thing.
4. I also have to work on a piano piece for my symphony class.
5. I just barely got roped into playing piano for the Institute Choir.

That is all that I can think of. I think that is it. Oh, I guess the flute teacher wants me to be part of the pit for a musical the drama students are putting on. I don't know if I can do it though. My life is already so busy and stressful.

I am in the process of finding a job so I can pay for rent and food but that is not happening. There are not a lot of job opportunities in Thatcher. I have applied for two jobs and hopefully one of them hires me. We will see what happens.

Well, that is what my life looks like right now. Not too terribly exciting but that is alright.

One More Semester!!!

Here I am, back at school. After a very good winter break, I am back at Eastern Arizona College. I have mixed feelings on being back. I really enjoyed the family this break and did not want to leave them. But you have to do what you have to do.

I only have one more semester!!!! That is if I pass all my classes. If I do, then I will be able to get my Associates. I am so excited for that. It feels like it has gone by so fast. Hopefully this semester is just as fast. I made a countdown to the last day of school and I have 113 more days left. That is including the weekends.

This winter break was fun. Forcing myself to exercise (that was not so fun), running with Tori, hanging out with family and friends, and many more exciting activities. Christmas day was way fun. Us kids were nice to our parents and woke them up at 6:30. We wanted to wake up at 5:30 but we were nice kids this Christmas. We did something different this year. Instead of waking up and going straight to the presents, we read a Christmas story on my parents bed and then we said family prayer. It was a really cool experience. I liked being able to think of Christ first and being gathered as a family for prayer.

That is pretty much all that has happened lately. I just can't wait for the semester to end. Wish me luck with every thing I have to do this semester :)
