Better check your crystal ball again, Jafar!

Hello :). Yes, it has been a while. I have posted exra pictures to make up for it thought. So, "don't worry....be happy." First, we have a warm hello from Amelia and myself.

Well, that made me feel better. I don't know about you.... Alright, well it has been a good week! I will try to remember what has happened :)... Well, first I have posted pictures of my school. I promised I would, so here they are. Finally. Isn't it wonderful?? It is very close to my heart :).

Well, there it is.... I love it. So, I have already been to my two classes this week. A whole two classes :). But, they were both great and I am definitely loving them. Amelia came with me to my Solfege class again this week, just to make sure I would be ok by myself. I think I will. I found out my teacher can, in fact, speak English :). So, I suppose if it is an emergency she can whip it out :). But, I think I will be alright. Music is the universal language, isn't it? My piano lesson was good. It was very quick, but she said everything she needed so it was just perfect anyways. She is definitely different from any piano teacher I've ever had, but I love her for it :). She is so good too! I feel like such a dummy when I play for her! It's ok though.... that is why I am here after all. To learn to play like that :). Awesome.

So, I have pictures here.... I realize that they are a random, but I thought I would put them up anyway. You can just follow me around for a day.... sort of :).

So, this is me on the bus. This is where I sit for 30 minutes when I go to my music school. It is a magical place. I actually really don't mind the bus. It is pretty awesome.... except during rush hour when it is stuffed with sweaty people :). Not so magical then. Also, the girl on the right was super cute.... you can't really see her though.

This is when Amelia and I were waiting for the tram. This is the tram stop at Hotel de Ville. It is awesome. I thought it was quite lovely at night. I'm not often out at night, but I LOVE to be. It is so lovely. Everything slows down and it is just perfect. Very relaxing I think.

Amelia insisted on taking pictures of me. Yes, this is me moping or something......

This is the Cathedral.... I can't remember the name of it. It is beautiful though. I think I posted a picture of it a while ago......

Now this is me on the tram. I don't like the tram so much....

Ok, this is pretty hilarious. We came home that night and Amelia's dad had done this! He is hilarious. It is now his pride and joy. He brings it out all the time.

Alright, well.... this is on Trifle Day! September 21st for all of you who aren't aware. Amelia and I made a delicious Raspberry Trifle. It turned out so good.

This is Nadège, Alexis (Amelia's dad), Amelia and Coline. Nadège and Coline are the students who are also living here. They are great.

This is Me. Amelia once again insisted. Happy Trifle day to me.

It was so good. I would recommend it to everyone. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Raspberry-Trifle/Detail.aspx This is how serious I am. Make it.

Alright, well..... I am trying to think of anything interesting. Well, tonight we go see Carmen at the Grand Theatre! I am very excited, but also a little bummed. Amelia's dad says that they have totally changed/ruined it. Sheesh.... wouldn't you know it? Oh well. It is an Opera all the same, so I am still excited. I'm sure it will still be good.

I can't remember if I mentioned this before or not, but on Sundays I play the piano for Primary. It isn't a calling or anything, they just needed a pianist :). Amelia is the music director in Primary so she just asked me if I would like to. Of course I said yes. I don't understand what is going on in Relief Society anyways :). Anyway, I love it! There are only about 15 kids in the whole primary so it is not a big deal. It is very fun. My new favorite thing is hearing little kids speak french! They are the cutest kids ever! I definitely have favorites already. One of them was wearing Batman shoes last week. Yes :).

Well, the new issue that being taken care of is finding a place for me to practice. There are students living here so we need to be extra quiet ( for sleeping and studying, etc.), which means I can't practice on the piano here. They brought out an electric piano for me to practice on when there is nothing else. Sadly, that is mainly what I have been practicing on.... This week I've practiced once at Adaline's house, and once at the church. We thought we had it figured out, but we apparently need to let the bishop know every time..... or something weird. Anyway :)..... life is wonderful. Really.....

Also, I would like to give a shout out to Benjamin Weyland and Caitlyn Law. The rulers of my heart. Go buy some chocolate for yourselves :).

Haha, I need to tell this story. Mainly for family because it won't be that funny for the rest of you. Well, once upon a time there was a boy named Brian Appel who decided it was funny to call me Linesay/Lionsay. Linesay... because he accidentally misspelled it, and Lionsay because of my "mane." It has actually stuck pretty well over the years. Well, the other day, Marc, one of my friends, thought he was so clever and said he was going to call me Lionsay because of my hair. I then explained to him that I have been called that for a while. He was pretty bummed at not being the first to come up with it, but he said he would just be a follower. Haha, funny. I feel right at home now :).

Alriht, well... I need to go eat food. I love you all. Have the best days.
