"Step; Step; Step, step" (Swing Step)
Wow, more than a week has gone by so quickly since I last posted! :S To sound very, very cliche, how time flies... ^_^
It's been a busy but fun week. Last weekened was 'longer' than usual since Monday was Labor Day and we didn't have school. Erin also didn't have work so the three of us went on a trip to Lanikai Beach. Had a real relaxing time, getting a tan and enjoying the beautiful drive since we took the 'scenice route.'
Then from Tuesday it was back to school again. Wednesday was the 'hardest' day to get through since it's the day I have three classes and for all of them I had tough homework. :P So Tuesday was spent trying to get all of the homework done. :P Now that I've gotten a sort of 'feel' for all the classes now, my favorite classes from most favorite to least favorite would be Musical Theatre, Exercise Sports & Science, Psychology, History, Speech, then Business Law. Actually, Speech and BLAW is a bit of a toss-up; I like BLAW but my liking it will depend very strongly on how hard the quizzes/exams are. :P
Today I had Psychology in the morning. It's a really 'interactive' class so we always get to do fun class/group activities. Today we split up in small groups and had to pretend we were an Ethics Committee. Then we had to discuss 4 'hypothetical' proposals of whether experiments could be performed based on whether they are ethical or not. My group was really on top of everything so the disucssion flowed well between us and we could report our conclusions and reasons for our conclusions to our teacher very well. ^_^ I love it when a 'group' comes together (borrowing from the great Hannibal from A-Team...)
In the afternoon I was feeling kinda... anxious for some strange reason so I went all crazy and cleaned the kitchen. :P lol, weird, huh? Even I felt a little werid. But the kitchen's clean now! I also did some 'casual choreographer' in my room; playing random music, choreographing little combos, etc. So much fun!
Had Musical Theatre class and today our music teacher was absent (she's conducting the orchestra for a play that opening tonight) so our dance teacher was in charge of the whole class time. In case I never really made it clear or not, we have two teachers in Musical Theatre class; one in charge of the 'music/singing' department and the other in the 'dance/acting' area. Today we spent most of the time learning the Swing Dance and several complicated steps. It was pretty cool though as a girl, it's 'fun' depending on whether your partner is good at leading or not. :P Some guys just don't get it... lol! And since there are more girls than guys, there's always about 2-4 girls without a partner (depending on absent students) so I usually practice dancing the guys part with one of the other girls. :P I got complimented that I lead better than most guys. lol! Well, I should hope so since I do choreography and to amateur teaching. Also, being a girl, I know exactly how the guy should be leading. ^_^
At the end of class Mitch (the teacher) let us listen to famous songs from famous musicals and we had to name the title and the play it's from. We listened to like "Sit Down You're Rocking the Boat" from Guys and Dolls, "If I Were a Rich Man" from Fiddler on the Roof, "Maria" from West Side Story, and more.
Maki made dinner tonight; cooked salmon and cold tofu... Japanese food is just so good. Didn't eat much though; I don't eat much on Tuesdays and Thursdays now since I have Musical Theatre class. Somehow, I get full soooo quickly when I eat after doing intense dancing. :S Weird, huh?
Dinner was a very 'long affair' as we just sat at the table and were just talking about most anything and everything under the sun. ^_^ We then had our weekly prayer meeting; the meeting was really good and we were able to talk openly about many things that have been in our hearts about our church and our lives coming back to Hawaii.
I watched highlights from Pride and Prejudice (the Keira Knightly version) which was so much fun and gave me the nice fuzzy feeling I get whenever I watch a GOOD romance or romantic comedy. *sigh* Now I'm off to bed in a bit... I get to sleep in tomorrow! It's so exciting! :P Don't have any plans for tomorrow except that I need to work on my Business Law. G'night and till next time!
P.S. I might hopefully be getting my laptop back from Dell repair next weekend! Woohoo! Sooooo excited! ^_^_^_^_^
