This video is from the Winter Orchestra Concert 2011. I am playing in the handbell choir.

The busyness of the Christmas season!

Last Friday was the orchestras Winter Concert. It was fun preparing for and even more fun playing in it. I played the violin as well as playing in the bell choir.

Last week, my roommates and I went on a room date to In-N-Out. It was a nice time we could have together before this semester is over.

All of us

I'm very excited because there are only 4 days left until I am home! :) I have taken six finals and I only have 3 more. YAY!

It's almost here, it's almost here!

YES! We're getting down to the wire here! This is the schedule of projects that I have had this semester. All of the major ones at least.

I'm down to one left, and that one is due tomorrow at 12PM!

Two weeks from today, I will be at home. :)

I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!

Trip to see the LA Philharmonic

My birthday was a few weeks ago, and then my friend Leslie had her birthday one week later. Then another friend, Rebekah, had her birthday the week after that. So, so celebrate all of our birthdays at the same time, we decided to make a trip to Los Angeles to see the LA Philharmonic perform Handel's Water Music.





The three of us and another friend made the trip last Saturday. It was performed in the Disney performance center.

Since we are college students, we were able to get our tickets at discount. Instead of paying $120 dollars for a ticket, we paid $20! Can't beat that!





Of course in the car, we took some crazy pictures...

We had a great time and it made our birthdays pretty special. :) It's good to have friends...

Only 18 days left until I go home for Christmas!

Santa Monica Pier

It's strange to think that while my family back home is being inundated with snow, I am out here wearing t-shirts...
It gets cold in the mornings and evenings, but during the day it can get pretty hot.

The other week we had an activity to the Santa Monica Pier. I made sure to get a few pictures for my blog.

It was nice....and very relaxing out on the beach. I am looking forward to WINTER though and I can't wait to be home for Christmas break! Only 44 days left! :)

One mans trash is another mans treasure.

One man's trash is another mans treasure.

The other day I was walking back to my dorm after late class and I noticed that the maintenance guys were cutting back the rose bushes. All of the white flowers were chopped off and in the trashcans. So I stopped and asked one of the guys if I could pick a flower out of the trash. They looked shocked and said "Sure." Then they helped me look through the trash for the nicest flowers.

I put them in water from a cut in half sprite bottle and now today (two days later), the buds are blooming! :)

Strange how something so little can totally make my day brighter... :)

MY HAIR IS CHANGING COLORS!!!!

It's almost scary... I thought something seemed different about it, and when I compared these pictures I thought...maybe they put something in the water here.

This picture is from last fall at college.

And this fall at college:

This is a really random post, I just thought that was so weird...
