Happy Father's Day!

Oh my. Could the week have gone any slower? It was super freaky slow. But, this weekend was super awesome. It began with a big BBQ at my clarinet teacher's house with all of the clarinet players there. They are such fun people! I love them. I love their house too. It's quite amazing.  I played ping-pong and sucked at it, but that's okay. It was just awesome.
Then I saw TOY STORY 3!! Oh my goodness! It was incredible. I loved that movie! It's just as great as the other two. I felt like a little kid again. This movie.. .just.. wow. Okay. I hate crying. I hate crying in front of people, in public places, or during movies. But the last part just made me go! my goodness! It wasn't even that bad and I cried... during toy story. I'm turning into a wimp!
Then Kristine, Lindsey, and I played munchkin while we ate ben and jerry's ice cream. It was so much fun. I love munchkin! :)
Yesterday, I watched Toy Story 1, went to Down East and Pizza Hut (yummy) and then went to Opera Scenes. And yes, opera is classified as being completely awesome and part of my awesome weekend. I just love it ! :) good weekend.

Finding Good Things

I think I'll be a much happier person if I can find good things about everyday. I mean, there will be some days where everything goes wrong. Those days are no fun, but if I build a habit, maybe I'll be able to have more good days than bad. You think?
Well I felt like a music person today. It's sort of fun to pretend to know about music. I played some prelude in Relief Society today because the pianist was late. I played Come, Follow Me. I played a couple verses and then I started improvising on the hymn with different counter melodies and things. It was so much fun and I felt like I was an awesome pianist or something. I probably messed up a lot. But I pretended that I meant to play everything I did. It was so much fun! Then I conducted the music in Relief Society. It's my calling. That's right. I'm awesome. Anyway. I was conducting and I pretended like the women were actually looking at me. I gave the best cues ever. I was then asked to lead the music for the ward potluck. that was nice. Also my roommates are watching Jurassic Park downstairs and I can hear the background music. Thanks to a friend, I have learned the awesome power of John Williams. I am really enjoying listening to it right now! So, yes. Today I feel like a music buff. Even though I'm not a very good one.. so yeah. That's a good thing of the day. Music buff feeling.
