New Years Survey (pointless)
1. What did you do in 2008 that you’d never done before? TONS with my music, for example, going to DMA, IMEA, and getting into jazz band on saxophone. 2. Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? My resolution was to completely eradicate soda from my diet and overall just have fun. The soda thing didn’t work, but the fun thing did. :) 3. Did anyone close...
Looking Into Summer.
Although it feels like forever away, I’m already looking into music camps for the summer. I have two weeks of band camp and one of DMA already scheduled, but I just want to do MORE. I’ve looked into Interlochen, one of the best in the country. I’ve looked into Blue Lake, and there’s one other Stolfe suggested to me that I’ll look into as well.
But, naturally, with...
10AM-7AM
7:01AM here in Round Lake Beach, and everyone in the house is awake. My siblings and I have not gone to bed yet, and my mom and stepdad are waking up to start their day. Kinda funny how that works out, huh? Playing Phase 10 for three to four hours takes its toll on your time, especially when you have the time to waste. I’ve wanted to be productive during this break, to be quite honest. I...
Merry Christmas?
Got a hundred bucks and a gift card to iTunes, was hoping to get enough money to buy my piano keyboard so I can start lessons. But it’s really not that big of a deal. I’m just glad my brothers are here because my holiday would be absolutely terrible if they weren’t here to keep me laughin’ and entertain me.
I found out that we might be going to North Carolina… for...
A Friend In Need
First semester sophomore year is officially done and over with. Teachers haven’t put all of our grades in yet, so I’m still waiting on my GPA. However, I can honestly say I’ve worked my butt off this semester and hopefully have the grades to show for it. One and a half years of high school have passed. I can say I have a full taste of high school’s up and downs after these one and a half years....

I thought Michigan would help me, really. I assumed getting out of Antioch would be great because this town is driving me insane. But, I don’t know, it really didn’t. I missed home. Then, I thought getting home would solve my problems when Michigan was getting hectic. As soon as I got home, however, I found more problems. It follows me wherever I go, whaaat the heck..
I just wanna get...
Holiday Season.
It’s here, everyone can see it. The first snow, the lights on the houses, the miniature Santas in the yards, even the occasional menorah in the window. Holiday season is upon us! It’s quite the exciting time here in the small (but always growing) town of Antioch. The holiday cheer is building, and the countdown to the last days until break has begun.
I decided to change up my layout...
