Yes yes I know, it has most defiantly been more than a week since I last posted. Very much so since I last posted. So scold me all you want, not that anyone really reads this. I know that it is just a creative outlet for me!!
Anyway school is awesome! I absolutely love it. It is so worth getting up every morning at 5 just so I can be ready to go by 6:20. So worth it. I AM NOT BORED at Maeser. I was bored at my other high school. I love Maeser! There are so many anime geeks there. Its funny because last weekend was Anime Bonsai, which is the Anime Con here in Utah and I had probably ten different people ask me if I was going. I wish I could have gone, but I couldn't. :(
I love playing the viola. Its fun but at the same time very challanging. I don't ever really remember the baritone or the tuba ever being this hard. But I'm glad its hard, because I am in a class of 7th and 8th graders mostly and they are all learning the theory aspect of music. While the teaches them I sit there and work quietly on my own going over fingerings and ever bowings. Orchestra is really the only class I am bored at all in.
I'm also trying out for the Girls Basketball team, so I have practice twice a week. Its a lot of fun already. A lot of the girls I know right now are from the team, and they are so nice. Before practice we all take turns braiding each others hair so it is out of the way. They have just totally welcomed me into this group that they have already had for a year. I feel like one of them. The genuinely want me to play with them. :)
Today I took the PSAT/NMSQT in class. I'm not really going to go into that because that's not important. What I am going to go into is what we did after. After we take this test we do service projects. My class decided to make fleece blankets for Primary Childrens, Shriners Hospital, and homeless shelters, and I was in charge. In just over an hour and a half we made 15 blankets!! I was so proud of my class, and my teacher was so proud of me for putting it all together. I can't wait to take pictures of all the quilts and take them to the hospitals and homeless shelters. :)
So all in all I am totally in love with Maeser. Not going back on this choice. :) However, I do miss my brass instruments:(
