Chapter 77


Time Skip... Three months later...


 It's now the end of May and things are beginning to wind down for the school year. The seniors' last day was Friday so half of my classes hardly have anyone in them. Though in all of my classes, we're simply doing prep for finals. Well for all of my classes except music. In music, I'm getting ready for my junior recital in two weeks time. I have nine songs in my set list from different time periods and genres. I'm being forced to do a language piece in Italian unfortunately, but I purposely placed it at the beginning of my set so I can it out of the way quickly. My voice teacher got mad at me for doing so. Oh well, you can't please everyone.

  All of the academic teachers are out today which is wonderful because I can literally hang out with Derek and Ted and practice all day. I have a singing lesson later though to break up the day. 

Later on that day...

  I'm at my singing lesson running through my recital set list from start to finish. I have all of my pieces memorized except for the dreaded language piece. I have trouble memorizing songs that aren't in English. What I do is place the sheet music in front of me on a music stand and glance at it when need be without it coming across that I don't entirely know the lyrics to to the song.

After the voice lesson...

  As much as I love being around my friends and boyfriend, I need some occasional me time. Reading helps me relax too when I'm stressed, not that I'm stressed right now because I'm relaxed right now. In fact, I'm pretty damn happy. It's Friday, I have no homework for the weekend, and plans with Derek tomorrow. Now that it's warm enough to go swimming, Derek and I are going to spend the day swimming and lounging around the pool. Becky and Derek both have really nice pools. I wish that I had my own pool. I feel like I use them every time I swim in their pools. They reassure me that I don't but that doesn't always put my insecurities at bay.

After school...

  I take the bus home, take a quick shower, and go out with my parents when they get home from work to supper to Taco Bell. All three of us had extreme taco cravings, hence we are fulfilling them. What a day today's been. I'm certainly pleased.
