As days goes by, it’s becoming more of a challenge to keep up with time. I have to admit, I’m starting to become overwhelmed by the things I have to do before graduation.
Last Friday, I found out I had a band performance during the night at a local church. I made my way into performing with my bass clarinet for marching band tunes. After the performance, I went ahead and watched The Dictator. Spoiler alert: I wasn’t impressed with the movie. The best scenes were the scenes from the trailer. I still think The Avengers top this movie easily.
Now, it’s finals week and I’m glad I only have final exams for 3 classes (out of 8). For the rest of the classes, I have small assignments or nothing to do, which leaves time for me to work on the bandquet slideshow. As always, I’m stuck finishing things off last minute. Not to mention, I have to work on graduation sashes for the band seniors sometime this week. The only problem is that I don’t have time to schedule the things I have to do. No one is really helping me out, so I’m flying solo. I really need to stop volunteering myself for these.. Things.
Tomorrow night, I’m finally going to GradNite at Six Flags! Thankfully, I don’t need to attend school on Friday (the next day). At the very most, I have to go back to school during the evening for our annual band banquet (which I referred as to bandquet).
The only good thing about finals is that… I have a chance to have people sign my yearbook. Except that I ran out of pages in the actual yearbook, so I have a binder dedicated to the additional pages that belongs to the yearbook. I notice that a lot of things that people wrote relates to band. I guess that makes me a ‘forever band geek’.

Don’t get too stressed. Try to stay as calm as you can. If things get to be too much, take a mini break – go out for a walk, sip on some refreshing water, do some mini exercises (yoga), something to ease your mind :)
YAY! You’re definitely receiving a huge break with only 3 final exams out of 8 classes. That’s pretty sweet!
Yearbook signing was OK for me… I kinda realize that people/friends kinda mention the same thing in everyone’s yearbook unless you are really special to them.. otherwise it’s more like “have a great summer! Keep in touch! The End :(
Have fun! ;)

You’re right, we really haven’t conversated in a long time! :( I’ve missed talking with ya <3 I'm not even sure what the thing is supposed to be. XD looks like a bird house/bird feeder AND a lamp! haha.
Your school year is ending so early, I'm so jealous :P We end sometime around June 28th. Which feels like 3432453257634 days away, seriously :(
Six Flags! I love Six Flags! :) Have you been there before? What are some of your favorite rides? I love their wooden rides. I normally hate those, but Six Flags's wooden ones are an exception. Good luck with all your graduation preparations! It's nice to be so involved! :D
Band Geeks and Orcha Dorks are the best! Haha \m/
Also, this is a bit off-topic…
I'm not sure if you're 'accepting,' but I was wondering if I could add you to my blogroll or exchange links? :D It feels like I've been talking to you since forever!! & you know I always love your blogs ^_^

Good luck getting everything done. The end of the school year can get pretty stressful. That’s great that you have some many people to sign your yearbook. I wasn’t that popular in school.

I really want to watch The Dictator but no one else wants to go with me. I just want to watch it because of Sacha Baron Cohen. :P
I haven’t gotten a yearbook at all during high school. I’m going to buy it next year. It feels weird being a senior now since there are no upperclassmen for me anymore.

Congratulations in advance! :) Looks like you had very busy week(s). Being in a band sounds cool. I’ve never been in a band (since I have no talent in music, except that I can listen to it for hours) that’s why I envy those people who are gifted in music. :P
