I am a bad person :)

So, probably twice a week for the past four or five weeks I've said to myself, I should really write in my blog...

Well, you can see that I really stick to my convictions when it comes to blogging.

So! What's new here, one month or so later?

A few exciting things. First off, I'm heading home (well, North Carolina, to my parents home, not really ever been mine...) to pick up a car. "A" car because we're not sure whether it's my current owned car or whether it's a different car I'll get from buying a new one and selling the current one. But regardless, I get to see my parents if only for a few days, and my little baby Aslan (and Ash too)!!! Aslan still has his cute purring into the phone and rubbing his head against it trick when I call and talk to him through the phone, with the occasional loud meow. Ah, I love it. :)

Second exciting thing is that starting tomorrow I'm house sitting for my uncle and aunt down here in Miami again. This time it's for two weeks! I'm really looking forward to having some time to myself to relax and do things on my own without worrying about what my five other housemates will think or whether it will inconvenience them. It will be nice to have a little, selfish break. Everybody needs some time on their own every once in a while, even extroverts like me.

I'm really happy with the way the music school is going right now. Lots of students who are actually working is nice, and I'm enjoying my time there a lot. I really love that portion of my work, with the school, and I'm excited for what the future may bring with that.

I'm writing a lot of grants right now for work too, which isn't a favorite activity of mine by any stretch of the imagination, but I find it fairly interesting as there's such as specific science to it, if you will. It's interesting to learn the hidden rules in the grant world.

It's getting nice and hot down here and it's looking like the a/c is going to be our soon companion. Could have used it a few days here already but we're stubborn and holding out. Though my computers are less appreciative of that such fact, as they're hot and cranky- my room, and workspace, as I work out of the house, has no a/c and is all windows. It gets hot in here! And my ceiling fan doesn't work. I've found some creative ways to cool off. But when the house's a/c switch moves into the on position, I'll just re-route myself to the living room.

I'm excited, as usual, for March Madness this year. I'm irritated that Memphis was denied a #1 seed - I think they deserved it more than UNC. Oh well. I suppose it will just feed their fire - I have them winning it all.

Hope all of you are well. Have a happy St. Patrick's day and wonderful rest of this beautiful month of March!

Cheers,
Em
