I guess it has been pretty much forever since I updated anything on this.
I really haven't had time to sit down and write anything. Yeah, I know you don't believe me because college is all fun and games and free time (to which I say, yeah right!)... but somehow I get pretty busy.

Since my last post:
-I went to Erin's for Thanksgiving via my roommate Sarah
-I got back to Rexburg from Thanksgiving in Provo via a guy in our ward Josh
-I performed in a Chamber Orchestra small ensemble group
-I performed in a Chamber Orchestra concert on December 7th
-I performed in my Clarinet Master Class on December 7th
-I performed in a Wind Ensemble concert on December 15th
-My roommate Kimberly is officially dating Josh
-I had my first jury ever, and passed with a B. :o( ... it could've been worse
-On Monday December 18th I took all of my finals, beginning at 7:00 am and ending at 10:00 pm. I don't think I failed anything. YAY!
-On December 20th, I arrived back in CT for CHRISTMAS!!!!
-Wednesday night: I slept in my own bed, in my OWN room, in my own house! -- The red walls are a welcome change from the stark white of my apartment.

Things I'd forgotten about home:
-How cold my parents keep the house
-The way the dog begs at the table and fights with the cat and needs to be where the family is
-Where I packed all of my clothes before I left for school
-The way the dog likes bread more than meat -- and the way she sits on the floor in front of the stove barking at the cinnamon rolls on top of it
-How to get to the Berlin Turnpike from where I live -- yes, sad but true.
-What it's like to have a dining room separate from the kitchen, separate from the living room, separate from the family room. And what it's like to have more than one floor, and my own private space.
-How much Christmas decorations we have.
-The way my dad has boycotted the local Taco Bell because the lady there was rude to him one time a couple of years ago.
-How much my family eats fast food.

In the near future:
-My older sister, her husband and baby will come home for Christmas on Christmas Eve. Which means my WHOLE family will be home for Christmas!
-I will get to see some pretty cool people that I haven't seen since August. One of whom is one Chris Potter.
-I go back to school on January 6th -- I will miss the first 2 days of class.

Sorry I don't have fun pictures to put on here -- they're all on my laptop which I left in Rexburg -- but as soon as I get some more, I'll post them.

Otherwise,
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
... I have to go help decorate the tree.
