Dori, that is totally awesome -- sounds like you would be eligible for some decent scholarships once you finish high school and head for College or University! So keep it up my friend! Woot!
Chava, sweet that you have made a friend. Friends are the flowers in our garden of life.
Virgil, that is incredible! Congrats

My Aunt, Ellen Massey, was librarian at Western Christian College in Regina, Saskatchewan back in the late 1960's. She wrote a book of poetry titled Quiet Moments. She died in 1969. I have been looking for a copy of the book for years but couldn't remember her last name after she divorced my Uncle and remarried or the name of the college.But today I was doing some genealogy research and located her last name and did a google search. After 20 pages of results I located the college. I've sent an email to them requesting information on how I can obtain a copy of her book. I'm so excited.

If it's worth complaining about, it's completely worth doing yourself!
um...I read three books in two weeks, and wrote poems, and thought about how we could end world poverty.hehe, I've opened a similar thread (Let's celbrate) before, but this one is better:
brag about your achievements (great and small) here.
Psychologists say it's good for you!(clinically tested, not on animals though)
I read over 100 pages of Psychology today. Now my head is spinning and I probably haven't memorized much, but well, it's only for my general exam topic (don't ask about the special topic!).

My oldest nephew has been asked to teach and play with the Chilean symphony orchestra. He will be in Chile for 6 - 8 weeks. He gets to bring his wife and daughter with him. He only has to pay airfare for his wife. All other expenses will be paid for plus he will get paid during his time there. My nephew plays the trumpet and he is actually quite good. He gets his masters this year and then is going for his doctorate. He currently goes to school in Michigan. We are so proud of him!

Chile sounds very exciting. That's great.
I'm curious, what was the conservatory in Santa Barbara. I'm asking cause my boyfriend lives there and he works on (composing) music.
I don't remember the name but I think its the only one in Santa Barbara.
What Are You Crazy!!!
