sorry sorry sorry!

hi all
sorry i've been so slack at writing. since coming home, internet has been a bit lacking.
and now we have no internet at all, so i'm kinda dying a little but that's ok.

first up, merry belated christmas to all!
thanks to everybody who sent messages - i really appreciate it. sorry i haven't been able to reply to most messages via facebook - again, lack of internet issue.

my christmas was ok, had ppl over for dinner, so spent lots of time in the kitchen preparing!
we're still eating leftovers now! hehe :P

am basically relaxing at home, but missing my friends whom i know from Victoria very much! don't worry, i shall be back in melbourne soon! i plan to head up to ballarat and bendigo in february, so fingers crossed!

so, sorry this is so brief, but just to let y'all know that i've received your messages...
eg. re: apollo strings and choir collaboration; apollo jazz/pop etc.
and all your lovely messages of Christmas greetings, and messages of 'hope you're going well' or something of that sort.

okies, gotta go - hope you're all keeping well :)

last post from melbourne!

yup, that's right kids, this will be my last post from melbourne in 2007! i'm going home tomorrow night, finally!
will be having dinner with a few friends before they take me to the airport (how nice of them!)
i'm at the con basement (again!) using the computers (again!) after having been here for some meetings at the faculty today, and some practice too - last day of practice before heading home, where i'll do more practice yay! hehe.

got results, which were pretty good. at least the ones i cared about were very good :) always a bonus. but yeah, i did pretty well, so i'm happy. the one that mattered the most (ie. prac) i did well enough to take prac 4 next year yay! thanks to all those who came to my exam on the 23rd to support me, and thanks also to those who supported me in spirit on that day!
hope all you guys who had results went well, and are happy with them. otherwise, well, i'm always open for a chat if you wanna whinge, or find some more motivation for next year (although results not guaranteed!)

and musing of today: have all my text messages been going through, or are some of you guys lazy and not replying?! please help me here! i have about $40 of credit still to use by next week, which is why i'm writing some of you extensive text messages for no apparent reason!

okay, going to the library, and then finally leaving the con for the last time officially for 2007!

adios amigos - either catch you at home or next year back in the 'bourne!

hats off, and cheers to a fantastic year that 2007 has been xoxo

supposedly practicing

i'm in the con basement, supposed to be practicing. because that's what i came into uni for. oh, and to use the computers too. to check my email.
but i'm having a break. because i'm unmotivated (a bit...) and my wrists are sore. that can't be good....

anyway, last week was pretty intense. moved out of queen's, moved to the vic for a couple of days, then moved to my aunt and uncle's apartment on swanston st. they've since left, so i'm there by my lonesome self :(

had rehearsals last week, for MYO and queen's choir. the queen's advent service was on sunday arvo, went pretty well :) although it was really hot. MYO also went well, the concert was quite good (well, our bit anyway) - it sounded heaps better in town hall (with a real organ too!) with the acoustics. i didn't miss a cue in the scherzo bit (phew!).

now just hanging out, coming to uni to practice because i have nothing better to do, and meeting up with a few people for various things.
so if you feel the urge to talk to me, please call my mobile because there is no landline at the apartment, and email is possibly unreliable because there isn't internet at the apartment either. although i'll be kinda checking off and on.

anyway, this must be thoroughly dry for anybody reading it - sorry, i'm boring at the moment.
