The Haunt of Homework and other events...

I'm sure many people have experienced the feeling of being drowned in work. Well, for me, I'm being drowned in homework and when you don't do your homework it haunts you later on. I am currently in the process of catching up on some work and working on projects that should have been started awhile ago. I need to finish reading my French novel and begin research on my Chemistry report. If only I didn't leave this all to the last minute *sigh*. I basically have my day to day homework caught up on; and now I just need to work on getting up at SIX in the MORNING. I missed to many band practices, and it's not like I don't like band; but I honestly can't get up that early in the morning! So, one day I decided to go to a Junior Band practice to make up on missed mornings and I literally died in the band room that evening. The Juniors were soooo talkative and loud and obnoxious and had the attention span of an animal that had to attention span ( I can't think of any). They pretty much drove the band teacher insane; well, if I was the band teacher they would've drove me insane too!

For Thursday morning's band practice I think I'll try bring in a CD. I absolutly love this band! They're called <<女子十二>> aka "12 Girls Band", which is band that consists of twelve girls (duh!!) who play traditional Chinese instruments. They play modern music with some traditional Chinese influence, also classical style music such as Beethoven.

Today I had the chance to meet the two exchange teachers from China. I though it was quite exciting because I'm learning Mandarin Chinese. I got of opportunity to hear my mother converse with them in Chinese; and I was able to understand about 75% of what they were saying!
