I've spent the last three weeks of my life in a hazy cloud of bliss. I wake up at 7 every morning, hop on the bus, and spend the hours of my day surrounded by music and people who love music. I walk through the halls and hear jazz trios rehearsing in one room and a bass guitarist practicing riffs in another. I spend my mornings learning about the history of Medieval plainchant melodies and my afternoons singing Williams' Mass in G Minor. I LOVE MY LIFE!
School is amazing (In case you didn't get that from the "hazy cloud of bliss" comment). It is definitely a lot of work, and I'm finding myself having the occasional moment of confusion and frustration (it is still school, after all), but for the most part, I am learning a lot and really enjoying myself! I got into the Capilano University Singers choir and have rehearsals three times a week! It's a great group and we're doing some really awesome, challenging material. My classes are SO interesting and I'm meeting some really cool people!
So, everything is going great! Mark's birthday is on Saturday so we're going to do something fun over weekend. I'm making dinner for him, Kristine, Nate and I tomorrow night and then we're probably going to go dancing on Saturday. I'm looking forward to the weekend and to pampering Mark a little bit. He works so hard and he deserves a few days to let loose. It should be fun!
I'm staying home from school today because I'm feeling really sick. I've had a sore throat and painful cough for a few days now. And, since I only have one class today, I thought it would be a good day to stay home and get some rest. I'm also going to get caught up on some homework and laundry.
Life is so good. It feels wonderful to feel like I'm finally where I belong.
