Driving for the first time!

Unlike last week, this week seemed to go by pretty quickly. It must be a sign that I am starting to get used to this new semester. All the classes are still great, especially the stagecraft course. My instructor told me that I will get to control either the lighting or sound for the musical Evita, and I am probably going to choose sound (which means that I'll be able to play around with cool speakers and microphones). Another girl in the class, who is from Malaysia, will most likely take over the lighting. I'm so happy about that!

My drawing class is almost too easy at the moment. It's very fun but basic, and although I do not want to sound big-headed I can safely say that I am the best at drawing in that class.


But the biggest thing that happened this week was that I got to drive a car this morning!! :D Well, only a little bit, during the driving practice, but still it felt great to be behind the wheel. Earlier this week on Tuesday, Naomi took me to the driver licensing place at Dillingham and helped me get a permit. This permit allows me to drive and practice as long as there's a driver over 21 years of age riding with me. So now I have to prepare and schedule practices before I take the driver exam!

In the afternoon today, we went to an open house at Matt's new house, where he now lives with three roommates. The house is a long way up on a hill so it's not so easy to reach, but the view was excellent from up there! I only managed to take this bad picture of the scenery (look at those ugly wires!!) so it doesn't look that great, but wow it looked really nice when we were there.
