New haircut and other adventures...

On Saturday, I got a haircut! Nothing too fancy, I just got a trim to get rid of split ends and some layers. Can you see them?



Also on Saturday, I went to a gigantic book sale. I heard about a place that was selling children's books for $1. I thought this was a great opportunity to get some books for my future classroom. This book sale had tons of books. It had cookbooks, craft books, fiction, non fiction, pretty much every genre of book. I looked a little at the other books, but the children's books were the ones I was interested in; and boy, did I find some good deals on these books.
I got some pop up books and some classic books like
Corduroy, Curious George, If you give a mouse a muffin, Amelia Bedelia, There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly (that is the big book) and some interactive science books.

On Sunday I had an orchestra recital! I am in a community orchestra, which doubles as a credit towards my fine arts emphasis, which has a good mix of non-music major students as well as older people from the community who want to keep up on their instruments. It is so much fun! I love being in an orchestra again! I never thought I would play violin at such a prestigious level! Even though some of the music is a little difficult for me, it is good for me to keep up practicing on violin and it doesn't hurt to be challenged!
