My Birthday!  
[mood| Loved ]

Today I turned 21...and it hasn't really hit me yet! I don't feel any older. But at any rate, it's not any big-deal birthday for me because I don't drink and don't plan to. What can I say, alcohol just isn't my thing. But it's been a wonderful day, full of love and surprises...so I can say I'm pretty happy! :-)

Anyway, I just wanted to post a quick update for this month...I've been on J-term and overall things have been pretty nice and relaxing. This coming weekend J-term is ending and I'm heading off on band tour. We're going to Washington and Oregon for a week, and right when we get back we start second semester classes. I mean that pretty literally. We take a 1:00 AM flight out of Seattle on a Sunday night (a week from this coming Sunday) and arrive back in Minneapolis at about 6:00 AM, and my first class is 10:45 that morning...oh joy, that should be fun. And then my workload will just be crazy, with all the necessary preparations (aka practicing like crazy) for my junior recital in March, a full course load, band, sax quartet, working two jobs, etc...but I just know it will fly by really fast, and then I'll be a senior in college. I'm getting a bit ahead of myself now, but the thought really does freak me out. I'm loving college and I know that it will come to an end all too soon. I have to enjoy it while I still can!

That's all for now...take care, friends!

Aww, so wonderful to hear you had a great b-day. :D Another thing we have in common - I don't drink either (and rightfully so, eh? Seeing as I'm not of legal age and all, not like that's ever stopped anyone though). I myself just don't care for any of it. You're 21, though! Eeek! Can't believe I've known you (and, might I add, what a privilege it's been)since you were MusicKate16. My, oh, my how time goes by!

But talk about some serious jet lag! :o I'll be praying for you, hon. And wow, a college senior! Just like that.

Hope you and your fellows are having a great tour!

*hugs

Way to go, girl! *high five* Unfortunately we are in the minority among our college peers, it seems, but there's no question in my mind that it's the place to be! I do love how we almost always seem to be on the same page...that's how we clicked when we first "met" and it's why I still love coming around here to chat with you - I always feel like I'm chatting with a kindred spirit. :-)

You're not kidding! Wow, I hadn't even thought about it like that...but you're right, I was 16 when I created my username at SC and that's when it all began! Oh, the memories!

Hope to hear from you again soon! *hugs*
