Welcome! ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** Welcome to my little Den! Here you'll find all sorts of things- mostly blog challenges, but mixed in, you'll notice:  I'm a bit of a fangirl  My life is very busy I enjoy using emoticons  I don't tend to swear, but stuff happens. |
| It’s the Sunday News! Reflect on the first week of July. Are you on track to meet you goals? What are your plans for the rest of the month? Hmmm I don't exactly have goals for July given that it's now summer break and I'm so done dealing with anything academically related, since I'm essentially done with the thesis and waiting to hear back from the advisor. If she doesn't reply by Monday, I'm emailing CHP again to let them know this is what's happening. I've written two thank-you cards for graduation presents, out of 8 (I think 8). I need to do more of those for sure, now that the thesis is done. I wrote one while doing the thesis because I had to send Sis some mail and I sent her some cookies to make the flat-rate box a bit heavier, so I figured I'd send her the card as well while I was at it.  So I suppose one goal here is to finish those thank-you cards. Plans for the rest of the month- I am going to a conference for Chinese School teachers later in the month. I'm also somewhat planning to visit DancerPalooza in 2 weeks to see if I can pick up any kiddos who might be interested in music lessons. Yes, it's a dance conference but hey, dance needs music, right? And maybe some kids will have an older sibling who's there for dance but they're not- and music classes might be a fun thing to stick younger kids in while the older ones are off doing their thing.  I'll bring my box of business cards and see what I can do for a day or two. I can also teach private lessons for piano or do private tutoring. It's a free event if you're not looking to get anything fancy, and I'm not, so this might be a good opportunity to set up some extra income. Other than that, I'm probably just going to be chilling around and seeing what happens the rest of the month. I've been practicing the uke every day, so maybe I'll haul out my guitar, get it tuned, and start that up again. I keep saying "maybe I'll do X" because I've been lazy and non-committal. For sure, though, I'm going to finish the 2-week barre trial. I'm ever so slightly disappointed that it's not all barre stuff, in the sense that with aerial, you spend a good amount of time on the silks or apparatus and learning tricks and stuff- at the barre, you start out with various other conditioning stuffs, before moving to the barre, and then moving away from it to do other stuff- so actual time at the barre is pretty limited. Regardless, I'm definitely getting a good workout out of the classes- I've never had sore triceps before, but as I did a stretch today, they burned! I just tried doing it again as an experiment and good grief, they still burn.  Not as much as this morning, but it still hurts  Maybe I'll sleep with an ice pack or something- ice baths are supposed to help flush out the lactic acid, but I'm not that strong, so maybe a smaller scale, ice pack would also help, on a smaller scale. |
