Well, its going to be one of two things. I’ve applied to do a summer volunteer program at the aquarium where I live, and I feel very good about being accepted. I had to jump through a lot of hoops, write an essay, and get a few references but I feel like it’ll be very worth it :)
If that first one doesn’t work out, I will definitely volunteer at my aunt’s food bank where she works this summer. It might not be as ideal of a thing to do as the first for me, but I know it’ll be fun anyway. I feel very strongly about making good use of my time off from school this summer!

Well, I think I’m definitely going to do this. One of the major fears I have is feeling like I’m not very attractive, and kind of being in denial in some ways about how I look. I’m biting the bullet and diving right in though.
I signed up for Painting and Drawing, a course at my school and one of our projects will be to paint a self portrait eventually. I’ve started doing preliminary sketches already, and spent a lot of time studying the features on my face and considering the undertones in my skin.
So far so good :) Tackling the actual portrait will be a different matter, but I know I can do it.

I’ve started doing some research on the internet about what to look for in a piano teacher, and reading a few lessons to get acquainted. I’ve also asked my little brother to donate his old keyboard, and set it up in the upstairs of the garage so I can play without interruption.
So far so good :)
