Piano and Dinner.

So today is Sunday (yesterday when I woke up I thought it was Sunday and nearly had a heart attack) and as the majority of my Sundays go it was pretty low key. I woke up at noon, ate a muffin watched Dog Whisperer and then practice some piano. All of that was procrastination that continued through the day until around two when I finally got down to actually doing the dreaded homework I was assigned of Friday. I decided to opt. out of doing the physics stuff because my heads still foggy and I don't know what the questions are asking me for but i did do all my calculus work which is excellent.

Tonight my grandmother is coming over for dinner which is super exciting. My Grandmother is one of my family members that I get along the best with. With both share a love for music and a greater love for Chopin and I can't wait to see her how much better I am at waltz, op. 64 no. 2 in C Sharp Minor. 


it's really beautiful and I've been killing my hands over it all week so I hope she's impressed. Someday you might here it to seeing as though I'm an attention whore and like to take videos of me playing so that everyone can tell me how good I am. ...You probably will

As you know I'm also learning Fantasie Impromptu right now which I don't know if I'll ever finish. It's harder than I thought and I don't know if I can get the hands together. But I won't give up. I must win.

Day 25: 10 special people in my life are...

This is super easy

1.) My best friend Amanda

2.) Dresden... I suppose

3.) My Brother (I love him dearly)

4.) My Father (because he's super awesome and got a super cool new car and is going to let me drive it <3)

5.) Ms. D, my band teacher. She might be the most lovely person on the face of the planet. I'm going to miss her a lot next year.

6.) Ms Corbin. She is another one of my band teachers. I've known her since I was....it's been a long time.

7.) Karen. She's been my piano teacher for the past 4 or 5 years. She made me love music again and want to play (previously I had had a horrible teacher who I didn't like at all and I was going to quit piano.)

8.) Mrs Paddock is another one of my band teachers who has made a lasting impression on my life. She's connected me with other people who share similar views to mine. I will be forever great full that she has played a part in my life.

9.) Mr. Forde. Surprise surprise another band teacher. I had him for two years in grade eight and grade nine but I still see him once or twice a week. He keeps on calling me different names (luckily I out grew baby tuna) and he still hits me on the head. Good times.

10.) As much as we don't see eye to eye my mother does hold a special place in my heart I suppose.

needless to say that when I leave the lovely public school system I will miss all of the teachers and when I have to move away I will be heartbroken from leaving Karen but I'm really glad that they've been here for me. I don't know what I'd do without any of them (though I'm learning to live without Dresden). I'm really grateful that they're all part of my life.


I feeling really sentimental right now :/
