Basically, my brass ensemble at school is performing with our Madrigal choir. (The Madrigal choir is pretty much a christmas-y type group that is also really Renaissance-themed. We have a King and a Queen, and everyone in it has their own costume, and when they perform at any kind of public venue, they speak in an Old English accent and are totally in character. They tend to be our most talented and hardworking choir kids, since they work, rehearse, and perform from April through December each year.) But because my brass ensemble is working with them, just like every year since my freshman year, we attend tech rehearsals with them, and this week is tech week. Wonderful. Not only have I officially been at school for 12 FREAKING HOURS (since I go at 7AM and got home today at a little after 7PM) but I have to do the same thing tomorrow and the day after. AND THEN, performances are ALL FREAKING WEEKEND.

So, I'll probably still be reading stuff on here, but I just don't have the time or brainpower to write this weekend or week or next week because finals are coming soon, but next weekend I'll try to update some stuff. 

Sorry for being a very inconsistent updater... (^^;) School gets busy when you're a hardcore band kid, but also take 4 AP classes (with no lunch or break) honors Algebra, and two band classes. But who's complaining? Me. I'm complaining. 

So, stay warm, since it's starting to get a little chilly, and don't get too stressed about semester exams! Study well, but don't forget to eat well, and sleep plenty. If you're feeling stressed, do whatever makes you happy for a few minutes, before going back and finishing studying or homework. If I forget to say this later, have happy holidays, and an awesome New Year! <3
