The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey

Some excitement

Things have been kind of slow around, you know, the usual schoolwork and music practice, but there has been some excitement.  Yes, we had a nice Thanksgiving and my big brother was home from college for awhile....it was nice to get to see him again.  Breaktime was over all too soon and it was back to the usual stuff.  But today I got a break from the usual routine of things.  I got to go to the community college to take the Compass test, their college placement test so I could see about getting to take a college class or two next semester.  I was really nervous about the whole things since I don't usually do well on tests like this.  But I was totally surprised by my test results.  I placed into freshman-level college English, and almost placed into the freshman Math as well ....better than my brother did the first time he took the test, lol...and yes, he was impressed that I did so well.  So, I am looking forward to getting to take at least one college class soon...fun!

Oh, we also found out that my mom is going to have another baby girl.  I have to admit I was hoping for another brother since I already have two sisters , but I did eventually warm to the idea, lol.  My mom reminded me that baby sister will have her own personality and probably not be like my other two sisters, lol.  And, upon hearing how active baby sister already is, I found a soft soccer ball at the Dollar Tree I plan on getting for her, lol, she seems to already be practicing her kicking.  Oh, and I laid my hand on my mom's tummy and got to feel a little bit of the fluttering that baby sister is doing inside my mom...it was neat!  So, I look forward to seeing baby sister, but it will still be awhile til she is born since my mom is about 4 months along now.  I've already been thinking about the fun stuff we'll get to do with baby sister...I think she will be one spoiled little sister, lol!
