well thats its.
its over.
done.
complete.

i have finished and passed my CDTA member exam and apparently "will be agreat asset to any studio" and also am "very natural with the students".

if your face anxiety attacks.
take that insomnia.

life is back to normal
or as normal as my life ever is.

my brothers wedding is in two weeks and i relented and agreed to perform a piece at the reception.
why?
i have no idea.
maybe an attempt to bridge the gap that keeps widening between us.
or maybe i just want to be able to finally show my family that yes, in fact i am good at this and i am making this my life
probably a little bit of both.
yesterday i went over the speeches my mom put together for her and the best man (my other brother) and suggested that she cut a few lines out. maybe its just me but i don't know how appropriate it is to bring up her own failed attemp at marriage in a wedding toast, or to mention the fact that the groom tends to have temper problems.
maybe thats just me though.

i do honestly wish them all the happiness in the world though. if anyone deserves to find where he belongs its my brother.

now if i only had a date . . .

on that note . . . actually there is little to say. no movement on the dating front these days.
slim pickings out here. everywhere is seems.

more travelling this summer.
kelowna again for championships, then several days of camping with the girls.
jasper in august for camp, and the greatest week of my year.
hopefully vancouver for a few days after that.
if i can find somewhere to stay.

life is good these days.
very good.
