next weekend is almost here already. woo.

That's right. The next weekend starts TOMORROW for me. Yay for fall break. Of course, it's just a 4.5 day weekend, but still. Better than nothing. I've been kinda snippy lately, so I think it's good that I can get away for a few days. It might be my introverted self being resentful at all the social life I've had lately.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about this weekend. It was some good fun. Friday night was Midnight Madness... it got boring after a while (as usual) and so Erin (one of the other flute players) and I began making animal noises. She does a really good angry hippo. Ask her about it. After getting home after 1 AM, I went to sleep at around 2 and woke up 6 hours later to play at "Morning Madness" (we watched the women's team's first practice and scrimmage). Came home at around 12:30 to take a looong nap... but not as long as I was planning. The heater pipes were clanging together and my next door neighbor was playing trumpet, so I woke up after about 2 and a half hours. I studied a little, chilled a lot, then got ready for my roommate's big birthday dinner... which was a LOT of fun. We went to the Safe House, which has this whole spy-theme... reminded me a lot of Alias (being the obsessed freak that I am). It was 3 couples... and then another guy, James, and me (a non-couple). It was kind of weird sometimes, but no biggie. At least I knew him and am friends with him... nothing is worse than being with a bunch of couples and a guy you don't know. It's like a blind date. But... not. Not like that I know what a blind date is like (thankfully). ANYWAYS.

Decided not to go dancing after dinner, since it was already about 11, and one of the couples and the guy decided to go home. And rather than go dancing with two couples, I opted to go home too. Don't get me wrong... all four people are good people... but the idea of going dancing with two couples is quite squiffy. Plus, I thought it would be better, with the band concert being the next day and call time being noon.

Which leads me to the band concert. It went quite well, though I messed up a few times. Blah. And it's on DVD. On my solo in one of the marches, the guest conductor made me stand up for it. As I sat back down, everyone applauded, even though the piece was only half over. It was the weirdest feeling ever.

Then I went home and studied. And studied and studied. Oh, and watched Love Actually. I had a midterm today, in theories of personality. I studied a LOT more for it than I did for the first test, so hopefully I did better. I really can't afford another bad grade in that class.

On the other hand, I got my theology midterm back (the one I took last week... apparently it was a midterm. Good to know. I thought it was just a normal test). I got a 97!!

Alright, I suppose I should get some stuff done. I want to try to go to sleep early tonight. But we'll see if that happens (it never does).

Oh, and if you do read this, drop me a comment. I like to know who's reading my blabber. :-) It would be much appreciated and it doesn't take a lot of time.
