What a misleading title. :)
yeah, my college life is getting hectic right now, but it's because of all my finals. I got to have a stress detox this evening because I had a visit from a friend down the hall, Matt, who's never ever here haha. He stayed and talked with my roommate and I, and we have decided to make a trip to where he's from all together.. Should be fun :)
On that note, my roommate and I seem to be getting along better; by that I mean she seems to be noticing me more.. not acting like I don't exist haha. She is cool though when she gives me the time of day.. I enjoy her company for the most part.
My evening was pretty bad; I was sick the entire time. Yes I know, AGAIN!! Being in the college dorms, everyone can get just about anyone sick because we're always around each other. It's actually really frustrating, because I am pretty sure I eat the healthiest on this floor, yet I'm always getting sick. :(
My studio had their semester recital yesterday, and boy was that a long program... It was probably almost three hours. I didn't even get to stay the whole time - I had so much homework to catch up on, and my parents and my old violin teacher were having to make a big drive back up to Prescott. It was so nice to see them though, and it really meant a lot that they all came down to drive almost 2 hours to see me perform for 5 minutes... Dedication. I had probably the biggest crowd of all the people in studio; My dad, mom, previous violin teacher, his wife, and Tyler. I'm not sure why my sister and brother didn't come - they didn't really give a reason, which is okay I guess because I want them to come see me play when I'm playing an actual *show* piece. The piece I played, Meditation from Thais by Massenet is a piece that is widely requested at weddings and parties, that sort of thing. It's a favorite and it's really slow, not very difficult technique wise.
I'm happy to say though that I didn't completely freeze up for this performance like I have in the past, and I think it's because I'm preparing myself much more than I used to (I'm pretty sure). It was a great ending to a low key, relaxing weekend.
NOW back to stress! I am at the point of deleria from staying awake for so long, and I have another final tomorrow at 7:55... Yikes. I'm so glad I have friends on this floor (he told me to have his name remained unmentioned because he knows I'm writing in my blog) to entertain me. He did this hilarious walk to the bathroom like a turkey, and I seriously almost died! Who needs drugs when you have great friends that can stay up with you really late to get tired and delirious with?!
Anyway, big week coming up for me, lots of work. I'll try and update soon. Hope everyone is living during their finals like I'm trying... :)
