Setting the Dates!

Today I went to see Mrs. Brown at White Oak to discuss the time and days I would come in to play. So far we have agreed to me playing for 30 minutes after school for two Fridays in January and 3 Fridays in February. I plan to work on my final time line with writing down the exact dates and times as well as how many songs I will play. I have also made some more friends whose names are Johnathan and Edith. Johnathan is a former WWII veteran who had some great stories. He told me about D day and how he and his friends stormed the beach while bullets were flying every where. He also told me how important service to your country is so important. Edith on the other hand was a stay at home mom, but she did play a mean game of chess. I was lucky enough to play a quick game with her, which was intense. Here strategies were phenomenal and when I cornered her king I thought I had here. In the end she took my last piece out with her rook. Then surrounded my King I finally surrendered. She made me feel better finally revealing she was a state champion at chess. At the end of the day I was so happy to meet some incredible people.

Tis the Season to be Jolly!

As the seasons change the dates of my performances draw closer. In the past two months I have worked tediously at my research paper and have finally succeeded in the completion of it. Although I have had this paper take up the majority of my time I have still practiced my songs rigorously. I have also visited White Oak quite a bit meeting a lot of interesting residents whose personalities jump right off the page. I plan to visit them this Friday as well as plan out the exact days I will come in and perform. I also plan to work on a new song by the zodiacs and add that to my play list. I hope that all my readers have a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
