Laptops, Festivals
May. 27th, 2009 01:45 pmSigh, I just lost my post.
Let us see, there was squeeing over the new laptop my dad just got me. It's new and pretty and I'm posting from it right now. He did this because a) I killed my old one accidentally. b) He moved his office (and thus the communal computer) and c) He loves me lots, and is good at getting lovely deals. Therefore, I now have unlimited and uninterrupted acces to the internet, a new office, and plenty of time to have fun with both.
There was follow up reporting on my visit to the guy friend's parents (and friends, it turned out). Quite a bit of fun, actually. My only complaint is that my eyes rebelled that day, so I ended up wearing sunglasses most of the time. Did you know that single-child parents act differently than multiple-child parents? I've noticed this trend only now because I didn't have friends who were only children until college. In general, single-child parents have much more distinct personalities and hobbies, because they have more time and energy for such, comparatively.
Ah, and then there was the knitting...I figured out the mistake, it's simple, but really annoying to fix. I'll probably keep the project.
Finally, there was...the Eastern Music Festival in North Carolina. I'm in! Got confirmation yesterday. I'm filling out the rest of the paperwork and sending it in. Also, I'm waiting somewhat impatiently for dad to get home so I can get his signature on one of the papers. At least I got a partial scholarship. I don't know why that makes up for waiting impatiently, but it does.
Gotta go.
