So much happening
It's been nearly a week since my last update. I really need to post here more often so the entries aren't as long.
I guess the first thing to note is that my Violin exam is now only seven days away. CRAP. I haven't done any practice since Thursday. I'll have to fix that tomorrow. Along with the pile of homework I have to get through.
On Friday in the early hours of the morning, my dad got a call from his brother to tell him that his father (my grandfather, who I called Poppa) passed away finally after several months of unrest. It wasn't that big a shock, but it's still been sad and pretty hard to deal with nevertheless. I guess what really sucks is that (especially after getting sick and having to take time off school earlier this term) me and my brother simply won't be able to go to the funeral, which is coming up sometime next week, due to the fact that we have so much schoolwork.
In other news, I'm current in the middle of an IT SAC which is going well. We'll all hopefully have enough time to finish it all at the rate we're going at I reckon. Although some people have missed one or two lessons, so who knows where they're up to.
Today I went with my dad to help my other grandfather (who I call Pa) to shop for a new TV. Remember me mentioning a couple of weeks ago showing him photos on our big TV and him actually being able to see them, despite his vision impairment? Well, he liked it so much that he decided to go out and get his own :P. It took us nearly two hours but we finally found one we liked.
I hope everyone is well, and I'll see you all again soon :).

Aww, I'm sorry to hear about your grandfather :( *huggles*
Hope you're all caught up on HW by now ;P
And you should write more regardless, it's fun :)
Oh, and yes I am relatively well, except for this IB1/school thing starting in...I think it's about 8 hours? Think I'll be able to stay awake? I'll let you know:P
Yeah, I did catch up finally. But now I'm struggling again because of those lousy maths and IT assignments
