Things are looking a bit different here on libertyperalta.com… that’s because it’s now powered by WordPress, which I am loving so far! I’m also committing myself to blog on a regular basis to get back in the habit of writing.

I can’t believe this is my last finals week I’ll have to endure! Though I didn’t have any final exams to worry about per se, I did need to take care of final projects. Especially the one for my photography class. (See my previous entry for the link to the six photos I chose.)

On Sunday, my sister and I were on the bus, on our way to the join HPU-HCC band concert at McKinley High School. (My sister’s boyfriend plays drums for the HCC band.) We get word from him that his dad was having a heart attack. By the time we get to Tripler Hospital, he had passed away. What was supposed to be a day of music appreciation, joy, and celebration turned into a day of shock, grief, and sorrow. It’s times like these when you realize how fragile life really is.

So HPU isn’t going on to the NSAC nationals in Atlanta. We were the wild card team, so we needed to place in the top three to advance. University of Nevada-Reno took first place, followed by Berkeley and San Jose State. It’s tough competing against big dogs like them. Though we didn’t place in the top three, I’m thankful for the experience… and that the competition is over. San Francisco was fun; I wish we could’ve stayed longer than three days.
