What a fantastic day in being musical

Today was a great day for me. I did a solo and an ensemble in the Michigan Solo and Ensemble Festival. My solo piece was Sonata for alto saxophone (by Henri Eccles) and my group's quartet piece was Finale (F. J. Haydn)  for saxophones, a bari, a tenor, and two altos were played in the piece. Both of those pieces, I got a #1 (excellent rating) for both of them. I did better in my solo this year then I did last year (I got a #2 rating, the second best) and this is my second #1 medal in an ensemble. In my eight grade year, I did a trio with three alto saxophones and we got a #1 rating. This year is different for me, I was the leader in my quartet group, I was nervous that we would not do good, but we did it. I was very proud of my group and I don't know if we are going to state or not (I don't know the Michigan solo and ensemble system very well). One thing for sure, our group will perform the piece again in our high school concert coming in the third trimester of the school year. Also, I am going to play the solo piece again in the concert.

My little sister got to play her songs on the piano in a concert at a resident home. She did a very good job. She played three songs by memorization, which she practiced very little on once in a while.

Today was very musical for us. The music performances very saxophones and a piano. Music runs in the family. I am the second generation (from my parents) to play music. My little sister came next in the music family. I play five instruments right now and I am going to play more songs in the future. My first goal is to play all the saxophones in the world. If I finish that, I am going to play all the instruments all around the world. It may look to much, but no one is stopping me from achieving the goal that I want to finish before I die.

So yeah, that is my musical day.

My New and Improved Blog

Well, this is the new and improved (almost) blog about my life as a teenager and (pretty soon) an adult. You could see that I changed the website address, the title, the background, and other small details. I am still adding changes to the blog. I can't wait till I finish this blog.

You are welcome to look around my blog and hope that you enjoy it.

Long time no talk

Hello everyone. It has been about maybe 5 months or more (I was not keeping track of how long since I have last blogged on my blog). But it is good to be blogging again. I am been busy with school, my cross country program, friends, family, and video games.

I couldn't believe that the first trimester of my school has finished already. Being a sophomore is actually easier than being a freshman, because I know the feeling of high school, made better plans, and I knew the school better. Things have gone crazy for me and some other friends of mine in school. We had a day when half of the school did not have power because of a wind storm. We somehow have school, but a lot of people left the school and went home, they were mainly seniors since they have their own transportation. I stayed at school and got somethings done that I did not have to worry about. I finished my algebra chapter test and the worksheets from other classes. I had finished all my final examines last week and this week. It was a relief to not worry about too much on the finals since I know that I did my best, studied everything, and did everything for this school year. I have gained a lot of knowledge from all my classes and I am graceful for that. I want to thank my first trimester teachers for their efforts. I can't wait until I see them again in the second and/or third trimester. I have an empty mind for more learning experience and my mind buds are very hungry for that knowledge. For now, I am on my thanksgiving break and I am relaxing with my family. Pretty soon, I know I have to get my mind back on and get ready for the second trimester that is coming after this week. I hope my friends are having fun on their break and hope they are ready for the next trimester. 

I hope that everyone had a successful first part section of their school. But get ready, because your time in school is not done and you have to get your mind working again for more learning. Enjoy your break and blog you all later.

Summer part deux (two)

     Hey everyone. I told you I would blog today. Hehe. It is cool here right now (thanks to the rain last night) I hope everyone is having a nice cool summer (I don't like the afternoons, it gets very hot) Time is going very fast once you don't count the days (just like when I was not counting the days left of schools, and boy it just past when I am not looking). Right now, things are going smoothly, what about you? AT 6 today, I am going run with my friends in my high school cross country camp to get us back into running. 

  Well I don't have anythings else to today. Have fun today and stay cool to all the people out there.

Summer

Hello everyone. Sorry that I have not been blogging for the last two months. You know what session it is right? Every teenagers wanted this time to be themselves, it would be summer break. I am enjoying my summer with my friends, family, and myself. I won't be able to blog for the next two weeks or more after next week. I am going to a summer camp in Colorado with my little sister to visit our grand-mother. I can' t wait to see her again. I hope everyone has planned what they are doing this summer. We have only about one, two, or three more months until school year would be back on and learn many new things for us in the future. I hope everyone is enjoying their time. I will bog again tomorrow. Talk to you all tomorrow. See ya.

Long time

It has been a long time since I blog. Sorry about that. I was busy with school. My dad went to Australia for three weeks. This is his third. This Wednesday, he is coming home. I can't wait until I hear his adventure in Australia. He went to Australia once, this is his second time.
My mom is working as usual at the Radisson. They serve good breakfast, trust me, they have good bacon. My little sister is just the same. Right now, she is at her friend's birthday party. I hope she smiles and have a good time there. 
Next week, Memorial Day is coming. Loy Norrix is going to march on that day. I am very excited to march again this year. I really enjoy marching. Since I am in marching band and symbolic band. I play the alto saxophone for those band. It is my third year playing the alto saxophone. 
Now, the weather is very good here. It is warm, sunny, and it is Spring. I am glad that winter is over. I will continue on blogging and do it more often. Hope everyone is enjoying so far. Summer break is coming very soon for everyone. I hope everyone has a plan. Bye everyone.

Just another week

Hello everyone. It is been a while since I posted on my blog. The weather is great, warm, and cool. It does get really hot in the afternoons, but cool in the even. I hope the weather is good for you all.

School has been the same. I have homework over this weekend, one is a project and two are for studying. I did get a head start on it yesterday. I bet everyone at my school do not like to have homework over the weekends. School is school. School are classes that teach you stuff that could be used in the future. 

My family are busy. My dad flew to Australia with some college students, my mom is at the Radison work for the morning job. My sister is at her friend's house playing. I am here alone playing on the computer. I don't know what you people are doing, but I hope it is not nothing. 

Thursday was the best day of this week. I had a concert at my high school and it was hot. The middle school kids performed first. They first did solo/ensembles, then they perform their full band. Then it was our turn to do solo/ensembles. After everyone was done, the audience get to get a snack,  high school clothing, or just hang around while the jazz band performed. I was the alto saxophonist that did all the solos. It was my first time doing solos. It was fun as heck. A lot of people were enjoying it. I even stand up to do my solos. We only got to play two songs because we want to get the concert going. Everyone wanted more from the jazz band, but we will do more in the future. The stage was set up for us to perform and it was great and hot. We were sweaty (well, I was the most sweaty). In the end, we got the people to have a great time. I love that day.

I hope next week would go good for me and you all. Talk to you later. See ya.
