humph.

I've been rather tired of late. I don't know why. I think I've been getting enough sleep... maybe I haven't been getting enough exercise. I'm going to bed early tonight: right after I finish writing this post, I'm going to bed.

I've discovered a really neat program on The Knowledge Network. It's called The Leading Edge, and it's about scientific happenings. It's very interesting. On the latest show was a thingy about the creator of the fastest bikes in the world, which I thought was very cool. It's kind of short, only half an hour, but that's life.

I'm tired. I really shouldn't write on here when I'm tired. I can't think clearly. Good night ZZZZzzzzzz..... .

very, very strange.....

You won't believe what happened to us. OK, mom and I were driving home from my orchestra practice. Mama was about to turn on to another road, but a car came the other way, so she stopped, which was the sensible thing to do. Then, just as she was about to turn on to the road, we felt a shuddering thud. We looked behind us, and there was a pick-up truck right behind us: the dude had run into us!! Not hard, so no-one was hurt, and our car wasn't damaged, but STILL!!!! I think he was annoyed that mama hadn't made the turn right away. But there was a car coming the other way. What a goof-ball. *shakes head*

later.

YIPPPEEE!

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!! IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!! I am 15 now!! :D :)

violin troubles: solved?

Well, we took the violin to the violin repairer guy, Kim, on Tuesday. He looked it over and said that the last person who rebuilt it did not do a very good job, and that the angle of the neck was off. (grrrrrr [luckly, it's not that big of a deal]). He also said it could be about 75-80 years old! Well anyway, he did something to the bridge (not sure what) and put a new fine-tuner on it (not sure why [sorry if the terminology doesn't make sense]). And since the tuning pegs were slipping, he put some "peg dope" on them, which really helped. I can actually tune the 'A' string now! WOOT! :D I think the only thing left to do is replace the tuning pegs, which we will do in the summer, when I'm not playing as much.



Peace favour you.

SO CUTE!!!

Oh my goodness! Ok, we went to visit the Flat Coated Retriever breeder again today. She kept two puppies from her last litter, and THEY ARE THE MOST ADORABLE LITTLE PUPPIES IN THE WHOLE WORLD! They are about 14 weeks old, and very well behaved. All her dogs are. I love Flat Coats: they are beautiful and sweet tempered and so gentle. Apparently they are really smart, too: you only have to show them how to do something a couple of times, because if you repeat something over and over again, they get board and start getting annoyed with you. But anyway: we are going to get a puppy from her. In July. It's going to be awesome. :)

Peace!
PS: I wish I had pictures, but I don't... sorry.
