many wanderings.

Well, I've been able to access my blog for quite some time now, and I've done nothing about it. So I guess I should update.



I've started classes, obviously, and I had my first lessons last week. I really like both of my lessons teachers. I have a grad student for piano, and a new prof for voice, and they're both really nice. I practiced piano for two hours yesterday, and voice for about five minutes. Do you think that's a bit imbalanced? Well, in reality, I was told to pick and practice about four songs, practice Hanon, and learn all the sharp major scales this week, while in voice, I was given three warmups to practice, only two of which I can remember since she didn't write them down. That's ok though. I'm also supposed to be journalling about my practice time for voice, so she can keep track of it that way. I haven't started yet, and she expects five per week. I might be in trouble tomorrow at my lesson.



In other classes, well, they're all music too, except bio. So I guess bio is going well. The prof is interesting enough for me to stay awake through his class, for the most part, despite it being my first class in the morning. I've got lab for it with a grad student, so we'll see how that goes.



Back to music...in music Theory, I have a fun older guy who gave me the required software we had to buy for free when the bookstore ran out. Speaking of that, I forgot I have to load it onto my computer before class today, and class is at one. I also have homework for the rest of the class (today is just the lab), and I also have to catch up on reading for bio. I think I"m supposed to be to chapter seven for tomorrows lecture, and I'm on chapter three. Yeah....I better get going.

Back to school.

Well, I'm finally moved in to school, and classes started today. I can't guarentee the frequencies of my blogs now, because for some reason the USD firewall doesn't like to let me on this site. I can see other people's blogs, but not my own. So this is the first time in awhile that I"ve been on here.

Anyway, I actually have homework I have to do. I have to memorize a song and a half for an audition I have tomorrow. I just got the music about 2 today, so I have a lot to do. Love ya all!

Courtney Linn.

This is my friend Courtney Linn and me. She just sent me this picture, and I thought it was cool, so I'm posting it. She is one of my great friends from Northwestern, and she has aspirations toward photography. She's a sweetheart.

Packing.

Well, once again I'm multitasking, and really not doing the one thing I am supposed to be doing. I'm blogging (obviously), chatting with Chris and with my dear Sara, listening to music, and surfing the web. I should be packing, but dinners going to be ready soon, and I'll have to head down, so I figure I'm allowed a bit of mess around time.
I have to be packed by tonight, or at the very latest tomorrow morning, and I'll be back at school by Saturday.

By the way, Cody? If you're still checking out my blog, you should call me from whatever number you and Susan want me to call you at, and I'll stick it in my phone...otherwise I'll just be calling you one of these days...either way. :)

Multitasking is addicting.

I'm currently watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the movie) surfing the web, chatting on AIM, and sorting papers that I should have gone through two months ago. Well, actually, I just finished the stack of papers. What should I do now? The debate is between trying on jeans and studying music theory. Since the theory doesn't necessarily involve moving around a whole lot, and therefore not missing my movie, I think I'll opt for that. I'm such a geek. Oh well. Time to study, I suppose.
