It's Been A While

Wow, it has been an extremely long time since I wrote an entry. Things have been going well for me. Move-out form the U was fairly uneventful, and now all of the junk is in the basement. The house is a little emptier now that one of my older brothers, Korbyn, bought his own place and has moved the majority of his things there. My oldest brother, Nick, has purchased a new place in downtown Chicago and will be moving there soon. Big things for the older Doucette brothers. My May-term class has started. Music Theory every day from 9 am to 10:45 am, followed by Ear-Training and Sight-Singing from 11 am to 12 noon. After that, I have my daily performance exam. This will be a fun semester crammed into 14 class days. I hope I survive. Once this is over, the Summer term will start. Then, I will have Music Theory 2, the corresponding ET&SS, and British History to the 17th Century.

Things on the Glasgow front are moving relatively slowly. I have yet to hear back about the classes I expressed an interest in. However, they have gotten back to me about where I will be residing. It is called the Kelvinhaugh Street residence. Super excited! There are still quite a few things to do (getting a visa, power converters, etc).

I am looking to spend a lot of time with friends this Summer, as I will not be seeing any of them, face-to-face, until next Summer. Perhaps I will have to pick up a video blog while I am there. That way everyone can see my shining face lol. I am very nervous about how well I will fit in. Hopefully I will acclimate quickly and get right to making friends. I will certainly be taking in the local happenings, including going to a pub or two to get my drink on!

All I know now is that I am very excited and anxious about going, and that I will miss my friends and family very much. I look forward to things being more clear in the near future.

See you soon!
