teaser

This is just a warning...I will be posting a philosophical musing sometime in the near future. So keep your eyes open!

a blank page

A new school year has started - a fresh start. At least, that's what I keep telling myself. I'm not overtly fond of changes, and the beginning of this year brought a LOT of them. For one thing, I'm no longer taking any classes at home. That in and of itself is a huge change - I've always had at least three classes at home that I had to make sure were completed. Now I've got six teachers, none of whom know me, nor I them. I have totally different types of classes now (no more math - YAY!). So far, Spanish is fairly easy, concert choir is a BLAST, my first history assignment was a four question quiz about the materials, and I get to play with internet media for another. Which means yes, I will be doing my best to keep this updated - at least once a week. Stop your groaning - you can handle me posting more often. It won't kill you. Burn your eyes out, maybe... ;)

For the internet class (hereafter referred to as PMFW - Producing Media For the Web), we get to use macs. Now, I know that macs are revered as the best computer for media and whatnot, but I'm sorry, I'm still a PC person at heart. This thing is strange to a high degree. Hopefully I'll get used to it soon.

I know I haven't posted in a while, either, so I'll quickly summarize what's happened since I last posted - it's been over a month! I know, I'm a terrible blogger. Mea culpa. I'll try to do better. (Wait - that's my assignment. I HAVE to do better.) I'm done at the Y for the semester - I can't drive back and forth from school to work. It's almost a 2 hour drive! Sorry, I'm not doing that. I also went to see Inception with Phinwe (my boyfriend) the week after it came out. It's PHENOMENAL. Definitely something to see.

And, sadly, it doesn't look like the chili cookoff is going to be reality. BUT I am progressing forward with recording a CD. It's going to be similar to Evanescence in style (I can't do much else - my voice is too classical for true rock'n'roll). I've got a guitarist now too. I'm not going to be able to do much actual recording until Christmas break, but we can work on putting the songs together and getting them polished before locking ourselves in a recording studio for multiple hours to get it all in play-back-able format. Hopefully the CD will be out by next summer.

That's it for now!
