Longing for Winter...





You would, too, if you lived in Texas after this summer (right, Texans???? Of course right.) .

But not to complain.

Today, I got the extraordinary treat of getting to go to the Gil Shaham master class with my violin teacher. It was wonderful. It was like a lesson...only I didn't have to practice for it and be nervous because I wasn't playing! ;)

Oh, and by the way: I got three blog buttons up in the "Link to Me" under my header...check them out!

Update: My mom had a person put one of her photos on an improper webpage, so I am taking all the photos that are recognizably me off the blog. So that explains why all those pictures are gone.

Moriah Tags Me...

Thanks so much, Moriah! You're always being so nice and tagging me, and I never actually do the tag. Sorry...I'll get better about that!

Do you like Blue jeans or black jeans better?
Blue jeans...because they're what I have!

Do you like Casting Crowns or Jump 5 better?
Christan Rock is just...not my cup of tea.

Do you like change?
I like going to places (especially blogs) that are aesthetically changed...beyond that, my motto is "if it's not broken, don't fix it!"

Do you like Math or Science better?
Science...don't even ask.



Do you like this Random tag?
Well...I'm not terribly far along yet...

Do you like Random stuff?
It completely depends on the mood I am in.

What kind of Internet browser do you use?
Mozilla Firefox

Do you like it?
On my net book. On the big monitor, I don't like anything. I affectionately call it "the dinosaur" *clenched grin*


This should be over soon- it's not that hard, right?
I am 4 questions in! It doesn't get much harder than that! (Ok, 8)

Do you like the title for your blog?
I do, actually. As Lucie is my pseudonym, I had to say "Lucie Land" instead of -- Land, which is where my mummy would say I was when I wasn't listening.

Do you enjoy chatting?
If the chatting has some interest to it, yes. If it is about totally stupid stuff--well, you get the picture.

Happy now? Because it's over!
Not really!

Beret: Hat in French

Here are some pictures of the beret I just made...It's turned out to be very 1940's. I just started a 1940's style skirt with this lovely fall suiting solids plaid. It's very classic--and classy. But back to the beret. It was very fun to make, as well as providing a way for me to learn to use four needles...or five. By the way, the second picture is more representative of its color, though. You can't really see in the pictures, but its worn to one side, almost over the ear.

Bartok's Roumanian Folk Dances--Wonderful!

I've been working on playing Bartok's Roumanian Folk Dances...this is an absolutely stellar performance by Janine Jansen.
