Made regions for Region II in New Jersey on Euphonium. First time I've made high school regions. auditions were this past weekend.

New Jersey All-State Auditions aren't until Jan 22. People who placed high enough in each of the 3 NJ regions are eligible to audition for All-State (I'm one of them ).

Wow, way to go HOBBIT!! *hearty handshake* We really have some talented musicians here. Maybe we shoulf form the Entmoot Band, or the Entmoot Symphony Orchestra. The ESO... I like it (and so does the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra. )

Nice avatar inked! It's about time eh?

I haven't been here in awhile, but - WOW! Congrats, everyone - JD and his work for NJ (which I have always thought of as a nice place because of a former roomie who loved it!) and the kids, Merc with the oboe, inked with the avatar and the essay, Hobbit and Starr and Nurvi - hooray!

Thanks Radagast the Brown!
Took you some time, ah? I made it 2 months ago. Still good to see you used it.

Congratulations Mercutio, Hobbit and Starr.

I like that avatar, inked. It really triggered "Aslan" in my mind, before I knew it was supposed to be him. Good job, Rad!

JD, that's impressive. And it's great that you can be so productive with your life-long love.
(I can't figure out how to reword that. Pardon the dual meaning; unintended. )

And hey! My principal aggreed to consider my class trip idea! I'm the president of the school's history club, and I suggested that we take any willing students into a paintball re-enactment of the Battle of Stalingrad (here). I found the insurance info he wanted, and I'm thinking he'll totally approve, if we can make our own waive of liability forms for the school. I can't wait, though nothing's quite final...

Hobbit--Congrats . In DE we have such a small population there is just state stuff. Not even county/region. 90% of people trying out are from New Castle county, lol.

My cousin in SC has county (her one county is bigger than DE even), regionals, and then states.

That's great inked. I read the report and it's really good.

Well... about three weeks ago I stopped doing any work whatsoever for my politics class...

Before that, though, I had done just about everything.

So on the final today, all we had to do was write two essays, and were given several different topics. And I remembered enough about two of the topics (enough meaning just about everything ) to write quite a bit!

And I finished everything on time!

(Let's forget about that 4am stint of two nights ago... )

Done! I survived my first semester of college!

Just got my exam results. I thought chances were big I'd fail and if I didn't, I would pass with a minimal margin. But no, I passed and was just a couple of points from "very good" - the best mark

That means I do not have to have another exam and that means I do not have to spend the rest of my holidays studying

At the moment I'm putting the finishing touches on a translation of a Swedish Children's book. It's called Tomtemaskinen (The Santaclaus Machine) and is one of the very popular Pettson and Findus-books.

I've done it in webformat so now I'm copying and pasting in the image-tag and halving the widths/heights of the images.
I've done two chapters of seventeen so far. It's going pretty quick so if I keep it up I'll hopefully be through with it by the end of this week.

I got my grades back from my first semester of college!

I'm glad to announce that I got a B in the class I was mortally afraid of , and that that was actually my worst grade...

3.556 GPA's not too bad, I suppose.
