I found this book in our library today while looking for the technical manual to my Volvo. This book used to be my grandfathers back in the 1930s! It's so unbelievably awesome to read through it and read the little notes he made. Maybe someday my grandchildren will flip the pages of my Latin books... lol
Tomorrow, all I have to do for school is show up and sit around, drink tea, and surf the web all day. Pretty awesome, I must say. 'til tomorrow for my 100th booth!0 commentsOctober 14th, 2009

I'm alive, I promise!
I hate being busy for a while and then not being busy for a while because when I'm busy, I forget to do stuff I absolutely need to do and when I'm not busy anymore, I forget to do anything whatsoever. At least I'm not busy anymore. 'til tomorrow (probably).0 commentsOctober 11th, 2009

Woo, sunburned face, cross country uniform, and white as heck arms/shoulders!
Remembered that I forgot to booth yesterday while running up this massive hill. So here I am boothing in the early afternoon. Now I get to write a prospectus for my thesis, study for a Calculus test, History test, and Latin test (monday, tuesday, wednesday, respectively) and get all my crap (teacher recs, personal essays, audition materials, various applications) together for college. Then I get to practice! YES! .......I'm beginning to hate October.

About
Calm, cool, collected, Czech (by genetics), violist. With that out of the way, I'd like to say hello. I sunburn way too easily, which is unfortunate because I don't like sunscreen and I like to be outside. There's a river by my house (well, we call it a river. Elsewhere it'd be a stream) and I like to walk along it's various banks and skip rocks, take pictures, and make youtube videos by it. Awesome fun times, let me tell you. I also play the viola, as I said before. I play in the Albuquerque Youth Symphony which is cool and awesome. Anyway, that's me, for the most part. Follow me if you like, even if you don't know me.
