Is there anybody out there???

Oh well, I decided to come back, I never decided to quit in the first place...a fellow blogger made me think of doing this again... the thing is I really enjoy writing, I really do, I used to be very good at it, but somewhere in the middle between school, university and my life I lost my talent, whenever I feel the need to write something I cant find the words to describe my state of mind or what i think, its as if I suffer from a lack of vocabulary syndrome the moment I see a keyboard.. I can no longer THINK...

So in order to catch up of what was going on during the last period of my funny full- of- action life, I'll write in brief.....
in July I passed my third year in university with a 3.5 GPA so it was extremely rewarding for me and I was so excited about starting my senior year soon.

in August I traveled with the Palestine Youth Orchestra (PYO) to GERMANY a country where I always wanted to go, I spent 12 great days, we played Dvorák's 3rd Symphony, Wedding Sketches by Salvador Arnita, Longa To Marcell and Manfa for Issa Boulos. it was a success.

In September we (the Jordanian Music Ensemble) had a concert to represent Jordan in the Neurological Surgeons Convention that took place there in San Diego, California. and since then UNFORTUNATELY I haven't even visited the airport, this is the longest period i spend in Amman since 2003 (almost 5 months....too much)

October...till NOW
nothing much has happened:
few good concerts with the Amman Symphony Orchestra (ASO)
I've been losing weight and living healthy,
FINISHED MY FIRST SEMESTER IN MY SENIOR YEAR

I'm so excited about this semester, I will finally GRADUATE.... you are all invited... I have been preparing for my graduation project for almost a year and i am so excited about it, I am going to play Arutunian Trumpet Concerto on my graduation, but for the listening jury I haven't decided yet maybe Hummel Trumpet Concerto, not sure though.
one more thing that will be going on this semester is that I'm back to work at the Amman Baptist School, I've been working there in the music department for the past 3 years but took a break last semester to focus on practicing and supposedly write LESSON PLANS for this semester.... I HATE LESSON PLANS, the teacher responsible for our work and "internship" is leaving till august and me and my friend are doing ALL of her work! its so exciting yet scary we've been with her for the past 13 years and i always found it amazing how she is 5 people in 1.... thinking of it scares the crap out of me! oh well its a new challenge in my life..... all to discover what I want.... and what I am
