YES! MY INTERNET CONNECTION IS BACK UP!

 

*dances*

that's funny.

 

today has been a pretty good day. I talked to my phil teacher and he changed my mid-term grade from an 89 to a 104 :D :D :D

Christiana, reading your story, i can tell as well that you are a great mother raising a wonderful son...i agree with you that you should ask your son and follow his lead.

 

But, Coming from someone who lives 15 minutes away from new york city...it is a great city with many opportunities, but since your son is just turning 4, i think it's a much too early age to be so far away from home.

 

Have you and your son visited the academy yet? Perhaps you can make a better decision if you paid a visit.

 

Hope everything works out well. :)

i know... i didn't have the brain power to come up with something original' date=' so i just looted that idea ;)[/quote']

 

Apparently, no one does :lol: :smart:

 

Anyway, how is everyone here? :D

morning all :cool:

 

or afternoon/night where you people are ;)

erm..hello everyone! :wacko:

Hello! :D

hey!! how are you ?

Fine. :D You?

ehm..tired...trying to go and study and lmao because of my avatar!! :lol:

lol! Nice av. :P

 

I'm tired too...and extremely sore from Judo and tug-o-war. 0_o

WinAmp is great. I can watch videos of Radiohead, The Killers, DMB, Coldplay, even Busta Rhymes...

Yes, funny av Andrea.. But mine is better! :lol: :P

ok - well me and christopher went out to eat and to the movies last night. i laid out the whole scenario about the school, moving, etc, etc. and his first response was... "why would i ever want to do that?" :/ o....k..... so i tell him some of the good things about it... and still, not interested. i ask him why. he said he is not leaving here. he is not leaving his friends. he is not leaving his grandparents and uncles. and this was before i even mentioned him going by himself for awhile... which after all this, i didn't because he was already crying. so the subject is closed for now because he won't talk about it at all and said he is not going to piano lessons any more if that means he has to go somewhere else... so :confused: i don't know what to do except just let it ride for awhile...

 

thank you all for your advise. i live somewhere where music and art are not very highly regarded, so it was helpful to have some opinions from people who do value these things. thanks!! ;)

hey liquid sky, how is your injury??

My injury..don't tell anyone about my injury Christiana! :stunned: Although most people here probably already know :embarrased: But my injury is feeling a lot better, thanks. It's still bruised but it doesn't hurt anymore unless I touch it ;) :embarrased:

well that makes things a lot easier. :/

i guess so... i suppose the moral of the story here is that no matter how sophisticated a little kid seems, don't expect them to make life decisions before they are at least :/ 5 or 6 :lol:

good ;)

I'm a bit lost but what happened? :huh: You want to move but your kid doesn't? :confused:

on the first page of this thread is the whole story... it is wayyyyy too long to tell. read it if you have time :) .

Oh the first page.. I think I did read first page.. :thinking: Well let me go read it again then ;)

yeah, I don't remember making any life decisions until I was about 6 lol. you're lucky though, I think there are many 25 year olds that don't need to be making life decisions

well i know this was tearing me up thinking about it. part of me is happy he made it so easy for me. he was absolutely heart breaking :cry: . so i had to do a lot of talking just to convince him to keep up his lessons.

kids are hard to figure out. even your own I guess... Why would he totally change his mind about taking lessons? Does he want to stop playing or just doesn't want to be taught? He could always just play himself. Then if he wanted to go to a music school later on when he's ready to make the decisions he could.
