Tonight mom, dad and Mia Pia Puddin' Pie are coming over and we're going to have dinner and hang out for a bit. I haven't seen my parent's in awhile so it will be nice!
Tomorrow I have a WW Meeting at 9:00 and then Andrew has to go out to Sangamon Auditorium at UIS to tune the 9' Grand Piano in the afternoon for the Symphony concert tomorrow night that we are going to! Since I'm part of the chamber orchestra at UIS, Dr. Stamatis can get us tickets for free. I'm very excited. I haven't been to a symphony concert (usually I'm in them) in so long! After tuning the piano, we will go out for some dinner and a few drinks and then head back for the show.
Sunday I have my violin lesson with Dr. Stamatis at 2:15 and I'm looking forward to that because I got some excellent news last night.
We got to orchestra and I got myself all set up in the second violin section. When Yona arrived she pulled me aside and said "I want to ask you something." She asked me if I'd be a first violin instead of a second violin! I was so happy. She sent me an email late last night that said I did wonderfully and she could hear the balance in the group now and hopes I choose to stay in that section. I really couldn't be happier. I kind of have a mental block when it comes to me playing the violin that I'm not good enough or that I don't even deserve to be in the first violin section; but she asked me and I was so flattered and excited! Yay!
I also got my new toy last night. All in all, I had a fabulous Thursday Evening.
I got the 32GB, White, iPad Air, like I said I would, and then got a keyboard case for it. I love the keyboard case. It is fantastic and it is back lit. As you can see I've already thrown some apps on there but I'm not sure what other ones I want. I'm going to keep playing around to see what I like! I've already had a blast responding to emails and doing homework on it. I also read some on it last night and the bigger screen is magical. Just magical. The picture is gorgeous on it too. I'm very pleased by the battery life as well. I've used it almost non stop this morning and it still has over 90% battery life. That's including banking, WW, games, email, iMessages and a YouTube speech I had to watch for school.

Foodie Food:
Last night Andrew and I went to Subway for dinner before orchestra and I had a veggie flatbread. It was amazing. Sometimes at Subway they're really stingy on the veggies but the guy who made my sandwich last night filled it so full it almost didn't fold over.
Today's Menu:
B: Spicy Black Bean burger on toast, tea (I wasn't feeling trendy breakfast today)
S: String Cheese
L: Tortellini Soup, baked potato, dark chocolate square
S: Chobani Key Lime Flip, strawberries
D: TBD - depends on what mom and dad want
Activity: Nada
I earned an Activity Point yesterday from all the running around we did after I got off work. The poor dogs were restless last night because we didn't get home until after 8:30. Walter was a terror... but with good reason.
