Driving
4:30 p.m. & 11/22/2003

Guess who can drive now?! Me! I passed my permit's test. I only missed two, you can miss up to three and get an 85% I got a 90% heh. So, I have a nice little card that says I can drive, with a liscensed adult. And it has a nice ugly photo of me on it. It's seriously bad, but that's okay, it's an important little card. Afterwards my dad handed me the keys and told me to drive to Cracker Barrel. Well I haven't been driving, and well it was a high traffic area, and so I was extremely nervous. I was stopping every few seconds and I can't park worth a shit. However now I feel more comforatable. I drove a bunch of back roads and then I drove through two town within the past three days. I love driving, half of my friends are like SHUT UP! Most of them can't drive because I have an early birthday. :)

Another great thing that happened during the week... I joined Percussion Ensemble. Since I'm a guard member, it's really weird for one to do this. Most band members can't see the guard playing drums, bells, or what not. I'm proving them wrong as we speak, I've memorized a lot of music and I'm doing better than most of the people who joined. We can thank my piano teacher because the bells are set up just like a piano. It's so much fun, and the percussion ensemble is really laid back, I've never seen Todd be this much fun. Todd is the percussion instructor and normally he's picking at every detail, but now he's like oh just lay back and have fun! And I am! No one has yet to give me shit about being in guard and joining percussion, and if they do I really don't care because I know I'm better than a lot of people in the band.... if I can say that without sounding conceited. I mean I'm not saying I'm the best I can do everything blah blah, I know I can't, but what I'm saying is I can actually read the music and I know where every note is and I'm getting the hang of it really well.

Well my sophmore year is like at it's peak. I'm having a great time in band, spending a lot of time with friends in percussion ensemble, I'm about to do indoor guard, which will be a lot of fun, and then I'm getting stuff around for my Spanish Honors Society project. Maybe if I could just get a boyfriend, that would make my end-of-the-year. Wishful thinking I can't ask for too much hehe.

Alrighty well I must go... I guess I will write later. Sorry about the lack of updates, if I suddenly don't update within like five days, then my computer has shut down for good and I'm waiting for my new one.

Until next time!

Until Next Time My Dear,
