Today was my last violin lesson for the year. It wasn't much of a lesson anyway, because the teacher was busy handling things outside of class. So I basically left the room all by myself for 30 minutes. I wasn't wasting time, mind you. I was playing a demanding piece called Le Abeille [The Bee], although I forgot who the composer was. I hope I spelled it right because the title isn't English. And also today was my last theory lesson. We learned how to do modulation. Seriously, it doesn't look that hard. I haven't had hands on experience of doing it, so I can't really say.
Right now I'm getting ready to go for a practice in church. I'm just so lucky to live right next to church. But there are also the bad things that come with it. I mean, you can't stay at home [like the others] and not be called by friends to go to church. I don't mean that I don't go to church services, but the after-church programs. Sometimes I'm drained of energy, and the sucky thing is that I can't rest at home undisturbed like everyone else when they feel drained. I mean, how sucky is that??? Sometimes it just ain't fair you know. But what to do right?
Christmas is upon us. We've got like less than 10 days to it. I'm not really excited about it as I used to be. The happiness isn't there anymore. I just wish I could celebrate Xmas in places where there is snow. Maybe I don't appreciate a non-snowy Xmas, I don't know. Am I asking for too much? But hey, I'm not asking for presents or anything. I just wanna feel the warmth and love you see the television. Huh. It's television, I know, but it certainly looks good to feel as the tele people do. I just want to lie in the Great Whiteness of it all, to feel the coolness of it, and to roll in it. *Sigh*
Listening to Gloria Estafan's Xmas album [I think released a few years back] makes me long for snow. *Sigh* Let me stop here, lest you shall be bored to death with my neverending whining. Stop.
