Mob-less Organ and Dreams of Italy…

The semester is starting to pick up… I had my first organ lesson yesterday, and it really is a completely different world from the piano.  My teacher is sweet and friendly; we’ll get along well.  Today I spent an hour and a half in a practice room making a lot of noise.  Organs are so LOUD.  I kept checking behind me to see if I had an angry mob outside my practice room.  The mob never showed, so I kept pulling stop after stop.  Playing with my feet is the best ever, especially the lowest notes.  This is going to be awesome.

Today I also had a chance to catch up with a friend from freshman year.  We had the same Intro to Psych class (inspiring her to become a psychology major, by the way.  I loved the class too, but I’m still sold on English).  Anyway, we hadn’t really had a chance to talk in over a year.  Crazy.  So she took me to her house—off-campus, but not far—and we had lunch together.  I got to hear all about her Interim in Italy a year ago, (I am so doing that next January!!) and about her sister’s wedding, and her internship with a school psychologist.  So great to talk with her.  We can’t believe it’s been over a year, but I was off to England last spring, and last fall was just so busy…  Life happens.  Anyway, it was great to see her again.

Last big news: I got my first internship assignment today.  Unbelievable.  I get to copyedit an entire manuscript in two weeks.  I can’t wait to get started! –jl
