Note that I put almost in parenthesis in the title. If it were just another average Tuesday, I wouldn't have anything to type about. But I do.
My Aunt Sue is willing to let me have her daughter's (AKA cousin's for me) flute if I want it. And yessire! I sure do! It basically has the same fingerings as an oboe, so that shouldn't be the difficult part. It will be the different mouth position. I forgot the fancy word for it. BRAIN FART! I've started a count down on my mini whiteboard in my locker and today is 11 days before I can have it. We are going to her house for my Grandpa's birthday, which is on December 12th.
Another interesting tidbit about my day is that the dance is in 3 DAYS! Including today. And the last day to buy a ticket is tomorrow. I still haven't gotten one yet. I can be very forgetful, especially on my way to the cafeteria. Did you know that the word "cafeteria" is Spanish for "dining hall"? Anyways, the theme of the dance is Candyland, like the board game. It should be super fun, and it's casual. That means that you should wear shorts and a t-shirt because it's really warm in the gym. So if you wore a dress, you would really stand out. Should I wear my casual sundress or shorts and a t-shirt? Please comment your answer. They made this really clear on the announcements;DO NOT BRING A DATE! So I'm not going to.
Last thing about my day worth telling; my friend Rashelle and I decorated my other friend's Aubrey's locker for her birthday tomorrow. And the teachers and even the principal didn't mind when they walked by. The principal (Mrs. Polzinski) just asked if we had a ride home, which we both did. The locker looked really great when we were done! Rashelle brought the wrapping paper and I brought the sign, bows, and tape. Luckily the wrapping paper had a sticky back so it was like contact paper. I'll take a picture tomorrow and post it so you can see how awesome it looks. At least, I'll try to.
So stay posted! This time, it hasn't taken me a month to post again. ;) that's a winking smiley face

I Have a lot to be Thankful For!
Okay, I'm starting on a clean slate. If I had posted tomorrow, then it would have been a month since my last post. But that's all in the past. Gone. Forever. But you can still read it if you want to.
I'm going to start out with one of the many things that I'm thankful for. And that is that I got accepted into the MYSO ensemble program! Only 100 people a season get accepted from all of the orchestras! I hope that I get into the string quartet I requested to be in. I turned in the sheet about a month earlier than the due date, so I have a pretty good chance of getting into the string quartet.
Another thing that I'm thankful for is Templeton Middle School. In my honest opinion, it's waaaay better than elementary school. The teachers don't treat you like babies anymore! I love all the classes I'm in except for Intro Computers, but it's only for a quarter. So that's good. One of the classes that's too easy for me is band. I'm playing 7th grade band material, and I'm working on oboe vibrato. Most people don't learn that until 8th grade! Mr. Neubauer, the band teacher, the expression on his face said that I'm pretty far on vibrato since I just started yesterday. But for most people, it takes years to learn.
I needed to go to another paragraph, but this is still about TMS (Templeton Middle School). I'm on high honor roll, have received a Principal's Pen Award, and am on the student council (TMSSC). So I'm very proud of my achievements! A Principal's Pen Award is an actual pen that the principal, not the assistant principal, hands out each quarter. Each teacher in the school can nominate two students each quarter, but a student can't be nominated another quarter. "We want to spread it around," Mr. Shurilla says. He's my science teacher.
I have a bazillion other things to be thankful for, but I would be typing all day if I typed them all. But maybe in my other posts I can say what I'm thankful for, so I you can hear other interesting stuff about me. And I promise that giant break in posts will not happen again.
