Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh.

That is the sound of a contented music major. Wind Ensemble finally got finished with its first concert and the Hodie is only graded by Mrs. Hill and I know most of it. I don't have to freak out about Wind Ensemble music anymore.

On the other hand, I do have rehearsal tonight even though Wind Ensemble rehearsal is cancelled. Ah, that lovely, lovely Hodie. Fortunately, Dorothy will be with me so I won't be alone with a bunch of random orchestra people. I told Mrs. Hill I would do it because I wanted to have some orchestra experience and she did ask.

And I've chilled out about practicing too. I still need to do it, but I'm not saying "OMG! I don't have ten hours!!!!" anymore. I know I probably won't get my quota this week, but I'm not going to beat myself up about it. I'll just work harder next week and the week after.

I'm loving that Mrs. Hill assigned a piece I already partly knew as my second solo. Scherzo in C Minor kicked my butt two years ago but I kicked its butt the other day when I looked at it again. It's amazing that I can still remember how to play it, but I'm glad too since I'm still ironing out kinks in my first solo, Scene and Air from Loisa de Montfort.

For now though, I'm enjoying lunch and having internet. I hope they get it fixed in Morris soon.
