Snow Day.....Really?

It's April 15th. It is the middle of April and there is more snow. I could see the ground yesterday, there were puddles. I swear, it was spring. No jacket was needed, my boots were put away, deep in the closet hidden away til next winter. At this rate, it'll be November again before the snow melts. There was concern that the Red River might not be able to provide the area with enough water. Well, that shouldn't be a problem now. My siblings have no school today; it was cancelled due to snow. WHAT?! WHY!? This is ridiculous. Maybe nature is making up for the lack of snow last winter. We didn't miss it, nature, take it back!

I was supposed to go back in to the city today. I NEED to practice with my accompanist for jury on Wednesday. Jury is basically a vocal exam, where I sing 3 pieces in 3 different languages. I feel prepared, but as a collaborative pair, not so much. She gets so nervous, and then that makes me nervous and I don't trust her and it all falls to shambles. But it is a group effort, so I will do my best to relax and believe that we can do it. Once this week is over, my exams will be finished, so there's a light at the end of this very dark, very long tunnel. Oh, exams.

I'm a bit uneasy about exams being over, to be honest. I mean, these are my last exams for an entire year. I haven't been out of school for more than four months since I was three years old. Goodness gracious. I had never thought of that until I wrote it here. What is the real world even like? I'm not going to have Christmas holidays! I'm not going to have spring break. What am I going to do?! Okay, now I've freaked myself out. That's great.

I may be back today, but I have a lot of studying, and calming down, to do.
