Oh jolly joy!

There's nothing quite as satisfying as accomplishing a lot in a short space of time after you've been in bed for the best part of a week, sick. Today is the first day that I've felt like doing something so that is what I have done! I have practiced for about an hour, maybe a bit more in preparation for a performance I have tonight (I'm playing some solo Bach and Stravinsky). After practicing I made a double batch of shepherd's pie so that I can freeze some for school lunches and at work as well as have some for the family for dinner tonight. Now I'm here on the computer again. Oh! How could I forget! I spent about an hour looking at different university options. The depressing thing is that one year in Vancouver is almost as much as my entire degree would cost if I did it in Brandon. Hmm... I think I would go mad living in Brandon. I need mountains and large bodies of water near by! But from one extreme to the other, my top two choices are the University of British Columbia in Vancouver and Dalhousie University in Halifax. From one coast to another!

Not a whole lot else new. Oh, someone asked if I would post some pictures of the area I live in currently. Check out the link below. The two albums in the middle are both albums of pictures that I have taken over the past couple of years here. The sunsets one is my personal favorite.

The gallery is great, the place looks marvelous.
It must be a pleasure to learn in such a beautiful environment together with so many young musicians.
I regret that I didn't start 10 years earlier...

on the other hand I should start thinking about visiting my friends in Quebec. I knew it's beautiful, but many of the pictures are really breathtaking...
