Give me one statistics problem and my creativity quotient is used up for five minutes. We're still in that time range, so, sorry. My imagination is limited. Therefore, I will just list what's going on until I regain inspiration.
-I am almost caught up on my homework, and the one thing I could work on is in the library, which is closed. I've been getting my assignments in just in time since I started school. I feel strangely liberated. And now I don't, because I just remembered the book I need to read. Botheration.
-The first chorus concert is tomorrow. I'm excited. (Yet I feel no need to use exclamation points. Nope.). Con: we leave at 12:15 and don't get back until around midnight. Pro: we're taking buses, so I can study on the way there. Con: we have to wear black long clothes, and the theatre is tiny, so we're going to be very, very, very warm. Pro: My spot on the risers lets me have one side free. Pro: I get to hang out with a really great group of people for 12 hours straight. Pro: I get to see my mom and sister. Pro: I get to sing!
-I found my new favorite radio station on iTunes: home.fm : )
-My math prof. is compassionate. Like like like. However, he won't give an A+ just for asking questions. *sigh*
-My First Year Seminar class is a ton of work. I write about 4 pages for that every week, and the assignments are so confusing! (There, I used an exclamation point). There are group projects, then there are journals, not to mention regular, erm, essays. Thankfully my group works well (Thank you, Grace!).
-I, The, I, My, My. What a self-centered post this is. Ugh.
-I have Smerf fingers right now. Yay, tiedye.
-All the music therapy kids were COMPLETELY confused about this new project we've been given. I find it slightly hilarious, because they kept asking me what they're supposed to do. Hahahahahaha.....
-Reading your blog posts are therapeutic. Thank you.
-Back to statistics. Bye bye.

Printemps (Spring)
I declare,this is the best year of weather I have seen my whole, entire life. Last summer was pretty temperate, the fall was nice, we had several big snowstorms this winter (!!!!!!!!), and now this marvelous spring. All nature sings of the LORD, it really does.
I can hear one of those birds chirping away, and it makes me want to write a piece of music using bird noises. That would be a fun project. I want to include the peeper frogs, too. Sansa mp3 players have voice recorders that are very sensitive and great for this type of thing. And then there’s GarageBand, with its endless options. Yep. I’m going to make that a school project, haha. I love home schooling.
Speaking of which, school is going pretty well. I really enjoy psychology, and my music activities are more varied than ever, which is wonderful. I look forward to the hour a week I spend with Justice, my sweet, 4-year-old friend who has agenesis of the corpus callosum (she was born without the broad band of nerve fibers joining the two hemispheres of the brain [New Oxford American Dictionary], which means, I think, that the two sides have a hard time talking to each other. ) Anyway, that is the day we play music together.
Sorry about the change of font. I can’t figure out what I was using before.
The orchestra concert went well. According to our conductor it wasn’t as good as the dress rehearsal but still very good. I messed up a little on the sextet piece, partly because I had never played on that piano before, but we held it together. I doubt anybody noticed, anyway. Listen tohttp://itunes.apple.com/us/album/pierrot-lunaire-op-21-1912/id58103265?i=58103503 and see what I mean. You'll probably be glad you don’t have to listen to the whole thing. Needless to say, it was a learning experience. There’s a clarinet, violin, flute, cello, piano and singer in there. The string quartet played

Well, that’s it for today. Adios.
