Do I really have to think of a title?

Sooo.....It's been a while!! 

Wanna see somethin' cool?

This past week, at my orchestra's Ending concert, I was presented with my third, and final, trophy for violin Solos in the Federated Music Club. :D Yep. I'm rather proud of it. I worked hard at getting it this year since this was my last year ever as a part of it. 

The set of two are from Six years of Piano solos, the set of three are for nine years of violin solos. My newest one doesn't have a plaque just yet.

Anyways. Yep. :D Tuesday was my last concert with the orchestra. Kinda sad feeling. 

I'm finally graduating from highscool in only eight days!! I'm so excited! I'm going to have a short, mini-recital, ceremony and a big party afterward. :D 

The one thing I'm *really* not looking forward to is that Noni can't be there. She was going to, but plans changed and she's leaving earlier than we thought. :'( *sniffle* yep. Definitely upset about that. 

I'm so excited about Sunday on, though!! :D Noni is coming to spend most of the week with me and we're gonna hang out, go shopping, sleepover, watch Narnia, talk our faces off, do my senior photos, and have a wonderful time overall. :D 

Remember that job I was talking about way back when?? Well, I got it. :D I started this week and it's going wonderfully. The major downside is getting up at 5:30am every morning. *yaaawn* but I'll get used to it. :) It's not so bad when I have coffee. 

Anyways. there's the lifey overviewish stuff. 

How're you guys??
I miss you. 

:D 

Pictures? I think yes. 

There you have it. Here I am.

Didja miss me??

:D

Just Tuesday...

So, it's Tuesday. Yup. Definitely Tuesday. *sigh* I feel kinda crappy today. So I've spent the morning drinking gallons of coffee, making cookies, and laghing my face off at relatable GIFs....and decided to share. :D Here are a few - ok. a lot -  of my favorites: 

 

 

Yep....hehehe. I hope those made you giggle like they made me giggle. :D
Happy Tuesday, people.
<3

Q's & A's and such.

I've been tagged, once again!!
ready for some Q's & A's?
here goes.

 Treskie's tag:

Rules:

*Answer the questions
*Tell four very random things about yourself.
*nominate if you feel like it (or essentially that.)

1) Avengers or Batman?
ohhh....Good one, Treskie. Um. I adore them both. I'm pretty sure I hafta go with Avengers, though. :D <3 <3

2) What is your favorite kind of dog?
Great Dane..oooooohhhhhman. I love those dogs. so huge and lovable and gorgeous. ^_^

so squishaaaay!! <3 <3 *huug dat puppy*

3) Bourne or Bond?
Bourne. all the way baby. :D especially Bourne Legacy. *Jeremy Renner* yess...

4) Do you have any desire to learn how to use a gun? Sword? Bow and Arrow?
 I already know how to shoot a gun. :D Sword and bow and arrow. YES PLEASE! I really want to learn. :D

5) When watching a movie in a foreign language, would you rather have subtitles or have it dubbed over?
I've never watched a movie in a foreign language....I've started them before but I can't STAND it. either way it kills me. I think I prefer subtitles though. dubbed over drives me out of my mind.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Katrina's tag:

1) What sort of a book would you describe yourself to be? (i.e., are you a fantasy, historical fiction, dystopian ect.?)
uh....I don't think at all I could describe me as a book. lol. Maybe a goofy weird children's book....that people go "O.o gosh...that's so...hm." lolz.

2) What would you be likelier to do? Order coffee with a British accent, or pretend to be deaf when someone talks to you?
Definitely order coffee with a British accent. I do a pretty good British accent. xD It's true.

3) A total stranger walk up to you. Do you (a) react instantly and punch him in the face before he has a chance to introduce himself? (b) Step back and see if he is hostile before punching? or (c) Go all coward and run away, screaming like a banshee?

Is there a "d"? I think I'd step back and see if he is hostile before pullin' out the pepper spray...because he might have germs on his face that would be transmitted onto my hand through contact caused by punching...

4) Would you rather be sick with the stomach 'flu or a shockingly bad case of strep throat?
The 'flu....definitely...I can't stand sore throats at. all. :P

5) if YOU could be a super hero, what type would you like to be?
The kind where they're really epic and you're totally not sure if the powers they have are actual superpowers or if they're just SUPER AWESOME. xD Kinda like Toni Stark...and batman. and hawkeye and Black Widow. <33333

6) Someone yells "OBEY!" what's the first thing you think of?
A Dalek. Or, perhaps all those t-shirts in Zumies in the mall....that all said "obey" all over them. yeah. That was strange.

~~~
Right then! :) On to random facts, I suppose. Four of them. comin' up.

1) I love hoodies. like, *love* hoodies. They're my security blanket. especially when I go places. idky
2) I DESPISE hand lotion. it sicks me out on a huge level. all slimy. eeew...
3) I love bracelets! a lot of them. at once. :D
4) I have a hard time throwing things away. my room is full of random stuff I've had fore forever that prolly ought to be thrown away but that I have some sort of silly attachment to. yep. weird.

because it's the Doctor. 

Done!! I won't nominate anyone as I'm rather short on time at the moment. but thanks for the Tags Treskie and Katrina!! I had loads of fun. ^_^

Happy Saturday, folks!

{xx} 

Tuueesssddaay.

I'm beyond tired....I've been so busy and staying up too late the past few days. lol. :D It's been fun, but I think I'll go to bed early tonight...

You didn't care about that. I know. Sorry. haha. I'm just pretty bored and lazy feeling....

I just made coffee a little while ago...I don't want to get up to get it. lol. 

Do your eyes water up every time you yawn?? Mine do. 

I'm SO excited because Alejandra is coming down for the weekend. We're gonna go ice skating. xD I haven't been ice skating in *ages*....I just know I'm gonna be the biggest klutz there. Oh well. :D It'll be fun, I know. I used to looove it. 

is anyone else dying of excitement over Sherlock Series 3??

I'm glad to be home tonight. In my couch seat. Chatting with my bestie and laughing at my weird family. 

Seriously. 

So excited about these days coming up. 

Here's some DW valentines for you. ^_^ I thought they were cute. haha. <3

"Shadow of the Almighty" by Elizabeth Elliot. School assigned reading. wrote an essay on it to. I hate essays...

3) When you think of music, what is the first song that pops into your head? Can you explain why it is that one?

That Mozart Concerto that I'm playing for the Federated Music Competition. yes, I can! Because I've been practicing it for weeks on end and have to have it perfected and memorized by the beginning of March. :) Actually, it did take a little time to narrow it down to just one song. about fifty popped into my head when you said that. :D <3 

4) Do you remember the first time you met your best friend{s}?

Yes! well, one of them anyways. :D I was terrified to death to meet my brother's Girlfriend's family who lived about four hours away that I *had* to become friends with. I've always been terrified of meeting people. I'm so glad I did meet her though, because Noni is now my bestie and I just love her to bits. ^_^ 

5) What are Rhetorical questions?

is this rhetorical?

6) This is not a rhetorical question.

Heck. That's not even a question! ;) ehehe! 

7)  When you think about your future, where do you imagine yourself being longterm?

Oh my. That's a toughy. I'll prolly be here in Missouri....maybe with a hubbster and some kids. I don't know. the world is changing so much and it's so crazy. Plans change all the time. :) We'll just have to see. 

8) Seriously, are you ticklish?

That is top secret classified information. once word like that gets out there's no peace ever again. ;)

10) How {and when} did you give your life to Jesus?

I was about four years old. My grampa had just died of lung cancer and I was thinking a lot about What happens after we die? My parents explained salvation to me and showed me that if we are born again christians, we can go to heaven when we die! I have my life to Jesus pretty soon after that. ^_^ <3
