Hey again! Bartok is pretty awesome! I can't say I know that piece but his piano stuff is pretty cool. I play with a semi-professional orchestra, so we do a concert generally once a month. Sometimes two, and other things... operas and chamber stuff. Pretty amazing for Montana! I actually have a couple weeks left of student teaching before I have a degree, but the band I am student teaching with is going on a week tour to L.A. and then state music festival and I'm pretty much done! Thinking about going into musical theatre though! You are a marine biology major right?! That is really cool! Bet it is A LOT of work though.

I have a minimed also. So far I'm really liking it! It is really handy!!!! What are you guys playing in your orchestra right now? We just got done with Brahms Piano Concerto, Grieg's Peer Gynt, Lizts Les Preludes, and now we are doing Beethoven 9. Should be fun!

Hey! Awesome that you play violin! Are you a music major or just play for fun?! Loving my pump thus far, even though it has only been maybe 12 hours! Ha! What kind of pump do you have? Jacob

Ah congratulations! that's really exciting! yeah i went on trial for it then i thought you know im doing swimming everyday and that's a lot of disconnecting so i might as well stick to the shots while im in a new environment and swimming. haha yes working on your breathing would be a good idea. I don't have to but i really want to get better at it. maybe it'll help me make an actual career choice. right now im between a pharmacologist or a teacher...2 very different things. hopefully some of my classes will help me choose... that sounds cool! I'll have to see because it sounds like when we're in DC is when we have the most stuff planned. like the Smithsonian and the Holocaust museum. I'll see though. oh man this past week i've been driving on actual roads and it's scared me every single time but i have yet to hit someone or something...besides a curb. today is my first behind the wheel with a driving instructor. of course me and my quiet self was one out of the two people that my class teacher liked and said we were the only two that got to drive the mustang...lord help that car.

woah that sounds like a lot! im glad you liked orientation. did you meet a lot of people going there next year too? Wow, that's pretty far away but yeah i guess if you dont think about it then it won't seem nearly as far. i'll check them out in a few minutes :). Yikes. Well, I'm still on shots, I decided against the pump. But what usually helps me when im giving the shots is i breathe in when i stick it in, and out as im injecting it. It really sucked learning how to give them to myself but i got used to it a lot quicker than I thought. I also try to keep my mind on something other than the needle going into me. Pretty much anything other than the needle is good. You'll get it :). I really hope Algebra II is easier. I've heard basically the same thing about it though so I should be okay. The only class I'm nervous for is Chem, but the teachers are pretty good. But yeah if I have any questions I'll probably be asking you. I guess I am nervous for speech because I am pretty bad at public speaking. But hopefully I'll get over that. That would be awesome! I don't know how long we'll be there but if I get a chance then yeah we should definitely meet up. I get my temps this Thursday if I pass the test so the first week of August, I'd watch out if I were you!

it was crazy. it was nice to have only one though. prom was alright, two of my friends worked with me so that was cool. it is really expensive! although ours is held at the school and after the dance there is post prom for all of the high schools downtown at our festival hall. tickets are only $40 so that's kinda nice. i bet you'll have a great time at school! my older brother's also leaving for college next summer so it'll be cool to have 2 different perspectives on it. how far away is school from home for you? i am pretty excited for next year. im taking, AP world history, spanish 3, pre-ap english, chemistry, lunch, algebra 2 trig, gym (one semester), speech the next and then student government. I heard chemistry is really hard but that's the only class i am worried about. this year i took geometry and sucked at it but i am hoping since i am really good at algebra that math will be easy for me. I just started my softball season two weeks ago and it goes the whole summer. just kind of a laid back league that's pretty fun. i am also babysitting for my aunt for a few weeks this summer so ill be in the chicago area a lot. then my family is going to quincy IL for a family reunion, my parents will then leave me and my younger brother there with the younger grandkids and my grandpa so im helping him out with all of them. after that week we are taking my cousin from new jersey back with us and then driving to new jersey and DC. I am really excited for it! im also taking drivers ed starting in june! how about you??

haha nice. that's exciting! June 23rd?! Wow. That sucks for them. We only had one snow day this year and they had only one built into the calendar so that's nice. We get out June 9th and I'm pretty excited for it. Are you or did you go to prom this year? I have to work at ours tonight for Student Government. It should be pretty fun. Sounds like fun! Are you excited for school? My sister just finished her Freshman year in college at UWMadison and really liked it. Yeah I just finished up my freshman year and i liked it a lot. It went by really fast though!!

I started out as a Forensic Chemistry major and I decided I wanted to directly help people so I switched my major to Gerontology because I love older people and I love making them feel appreciated. There are also not very many people in that major and I wanted to get a degree in something I really cared about. The best advice I could give about being at college with Type 1 is just to make sure you always have something with you as far as food. Walking around campus takes a toll on your BG. And if you don't already wear a medical ID bracelet or something, wear it, all the time! Going off to college many people won't know that you're Type 1 and making sure that people know if anything ever happens to you is the most important thing! Good luck!! And don't ever hesitate to contact me if you need anything :)

Hey Amanda! I haven't been on here in so long so I feel kind of out of the loop. How are you? How's school going?
