'And I won't ever have that recipe agaaaiiinnn'

[rdm_ation]

So, my recital was today - and oddly enough I was excited rather than nervous. A good sign, considering the line of work I wish to enter. I think I did pretty well, apart from the one major memory blank. In Bach. AGAIN. I'm starting to think I'm jinxed. It was one bar that I just simply couldn't play. I knew the next bit, and I could sing it in my head, but my fingers just wouldn't play it. I'm so glad my teacher was there, I just froze, and she just said to get my music. Ah well. I did my best not to let it phase me, and as soon as I started the Schubert sonata I knew I was fine. Still a little shaken by it, and I nearly chickened out of doing the Legende by memory, but I recovered. Apparently, that was the best I've ever played the Legende. AWESOME.

So I'm happy, and relaxed, and not studying for Aural. It goes against the grain, but honestly I can't be bothered - and I only need to pass to keep my average up. harpisan and I spent the afternoon eating ice-cream, making cookies (one batch was great, the other was of epic fail proportions in terms of mess), dissecting our performances, and discussing how we should marry guys who are lawyers or the like. Leading to the epic win call "we're only shallow on the outside". Our best calls are always unintentional. It makes them so much funnier.

The other thing we were getting a good laugh out of was a facebook group I found the other day. 'Pop songs are best represented by graphs'. I find quite a few of them absolutely hilarious - I guess it's because the science/maths and music parts of my brain just mesh together for these. My personal favourite is this one. Mainly because it's in the form of an actual graph I would have been asked to draw in Physics.




On that note, I am off. To do nothing. *grins*

*laughs* Don't worry, I'll go into a panic about ensemble tomorrow.
It's just too hard to let that bother me right at this moment.

*chuckles* That was our discussion in a nutshell...

You'll have to talk to S on Friday, I'm sure she'll have seen them in workshop ;)

I thought I'd just comment here, rather than risk my reply falling off the face of the earth like yours were about to do --->

Maybe we need to take law or medical subjects next year...get in early, pick a couple of guys, and hope they end up being the best in their year and get awesome high-paying jobs. It's a gamble, but probably our only hope :P

Good plan.

I like your thinking ;)
Or at the very least, find guys who are doing languages as breadth for said degrees...
