Mini Update


Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you guys know that I will be trying to post more of these COSMOS posts. I am having a blast reliving all of the memories. They are really fun to write about, but the only problem is that these posts tend to be more time-consuming than others. So, I just wanted to let you guys know that the posts will take a while. I'm hoping to be able to have them all posted by Christmas time. I know that is a long time away, but lets just say that school has not been very nice with me by giving me loads of homework already. Yea, maybe not as much as last year towards the end of the year, but I can only imagine what the ending of Junior year holds. So anyway, please hang with me as I try to post the COSMOS posts.

Also, I wanted to share with you guys how excited I am! I finally started my driving lessons! So far I am only doing online course stuff, but still I am very excited about finally doing something teenager-like. I felt like I needed to start working on this now since I've already been 16 for almost 3 months. I could have started this when I was 15 and a half, but then I had a lot of weight on my shoulders, and I honestly am glad I didn't start then because I don't think I could of handled it.

Anyway, enough about driving. I've been doing pretty good at school lately! It's been almost 2 weeks, and so far everything has been going not to bad. I've gotten homework, but not enough to stress me out. Thumbs up about that. Still, I'm trying to stay on track, and make sure I get A's again this year.

Oh, yea! So, as of two thursdays ago we have been doing chair auditions for orchestra. I swear, that is so freaking... ahhhhh!!! for me this year. In the past, I didn't worry so much, because I just wasn't as in to playing the violin as I was even just half a year ago. I finally got to audition this last thursday after an extremely long wait! I was so nervous! My main goal was to be able to show him I'm worth it, and that I can prove him I have really improved substantially. I've recognized that I've improved, and my family and friends have too, but really the only one I wanted to get an opinion on how I've improved is Mr. Jimenez, my conductor. His opinion matters so much to me, and I am always trying to prove, and show him how hard I'm working. After the audition, he gave me such great feedback! He said he was extremely impressed at my improvement over the last half of this year. It really brought me. I have some serious goals I want to reach still, but I have conquered so many lately, and I cant help but thank God every night for giving me the ability to achieve them.

I hope to post again tonight or tomorrow! If I don't, I hope to post again very soon!
