An udpate!

Hi everyone! Sorry it's been so long since my last post. I had a very busy last couple weeks of school and couldn't really find the time to collect my thoughts enough to write a post. My finals went well! I had 4 of them plus a jury. I feel pretty confident with how I did on all of the written finals and my jury went well, I forgot some words for a second, but then I recovered and it was fine. After my jury I hopped in my car and headed for home. It was a long ride, mostly in the dark (yuck) in my little car with no radio (I make up a lot of songs on my trips to and from school). Eventually though, I got home. I got home only to find out, however, that I am literally working 7 hours a day this entire week, except Christmas. I even work Christmas Eve! It's fine though, I really like working there and that equals lotsa moola for me! :)

Last night I got out of work at 4 and then Chantal and I went to Sakura to get sushi. The restaurant looks like crap from the outside. They really need to do something about the outward appearance of their business, but the inside is nice and the sushi is scrumptious. Then we went back to Chantal's and hung out and had one of of sleepovers that we have frequently. It was a good time. 

Right now I am sitting on the couch watching The Waltons Christmas Special (I LOVE THE WALTONS) and then I'm gonna hop in the shower and probably try to get some Christmas shopping done for a few people. Then I work tonight...wooo!

I can't believe Christmas is right around the corner. I feel like school just started and I've already got one semester out of the way! Time flies.

Alright, gotta get back to The Waltons. :)

Later, gators! 

A day in the life of Sarah...

So, I thought it'd be fun to do a blog relaying what a typical day for me is like. 

I left my apartment at around 8:30 this morning...

When I arrived at work, my co-worker Dominick was there to greet me with a smile!

Dominick is an academic advisor for the Explorations program, but he's also a very talented actor, singer, and director, so we have lots in common. Often times when there isn't much to do at work (..which really is often times), Dominick and I will have little chats about life. It's fun times.

After work I headed over to 1944 hall to wait for Music History to begin.
When I got there, Alan was eating his bagel and drinking apple juice, though I thought his apple juice looked like beer...

As you can see the 1944 halls fill up quickly! The building is always booming with activity...that's a big part of why I love my program so much, it's such a family atmosphere!

Music History then began...

After Music History, I had an hour break so I decided to go practice piano...

Then it was time for piano class...

I always meet Alyssa in the lobby after piano so we can go get lunch!

Then we headed over to the union and had lunch with Chris and Nate...

And then Craig stopped by to say hi...

After lunch I had singers...and I completely forgot to take pictures. Then I went home for a couple hours to have dinner and get some work done. At 6 it was time to head back to campus for a Side Show The Musical dance rehearsal...
Happy, smiling, dancey ladies!

Brianne, the choreographer, and Greg, the dance captain discuss something...

I left that rehearsal at around 8:30 and went downstairs to have a capella rehearsal with the newest mixed a capella group on campus! ALL NATURAL! :) We're great and it's filled with wonderful people...

We're making the musical "natural" sign in the picture...haha :)
So, I just got home from that...and now I've gotta do a tiny bit of homework and get to bed! I hope you enjoyed a day in the life of me!
Later, gators!

THE WEEK FROM HELL....

MY & ALAN'S REACTION TO THIS WEEK SUMMED UP IN A PICTURE:

Okay, so Alan and I just took this picture. We're in between classes. We just got out of music history and are waiting for our Sight Singing/Ear Training teacher to get here (it's in the same classroom). This week is insane crazy. I have so much due. SO SO SO SO SO SO MUCH DUE. Instead of eating today, I am spending my hour break in the library. So many papers, so many projects, so much stuff. Hopefully I make it through this week so I can blog more later. SIGH. Happy December, everyone.

Later, gators!
