i probably shouldnt be on this thing, considering i have a LOT of homework for next week i need to do...
but whatever...thoery can suck it

ok so, music theory is basically the bane of my existence.  lemme just tell you...its 5 days a week.  only three credit hours.  there is an outside portion to this class where you have 5 assignments due a week,,,(so basically another class rolled into one);  we have these things called Atonal fridays, where we study atonal music only and we have separate homework for that every week (another class rolled into this one);  on Mondays and wednesdays, we study music analysis (which is where you look at sheet music and based on the notes on the page, you analyze what the composer is doing with each and every note on the whole effing thing...JESUS) and on Tuesdays and Thursdays we study sight singing and ear training (you look at a excerpt from a song, and without anyone playing it...you sing it,  this is probably one of the hardest things you'll ever attenpt to do) and ear training is where the teacher plays a series of pitches and you have to be able to tell what intervals are between each and every note...GAHHHHHHHHH.  so basically this is like 10 classes in one friggen hour a day.  and only three credit hours?!!!?!??!?!!?  FUCK YOU MUSIC DEPARTMENT.  im going to kill myself this semester.  either that or just run off of nothing but adderral and caffiene...not really.  ill just smoke meth.

SUPER hottie in three of my classes.  Looks like Javier Bardem.  only younger.

speaking of javier bardem...everyone should see this new woody allen movie called Vicky Christina Barcelona.  IT IS AWESOME...and one of the few movies that i like penelope cruz in,  for some reason i cant really handle her in most movies...she always plays the irrational, yelling, fast-talking spaniard...and she just has this look to me, that screams "im a coke head"   maybe thats just me...but in Blow, i felt she was kinda playing herself...heehee

trying to be more creative with my writing.  not really working when you have school running through your head 24/7.

AND i havent even started voice lessons...which means more work for la nina.  whateva...i'll make it.  i just hope to god i can still carry a 4.0...but this semester will be the hardest yet.

reading the oddyssey for english...hard to get into.  but certain parts are entertaining.  and other parts make me think how much it would have sucked to live back then.  they go into extreme detail about making a sacrifice to the gods.  it starts off with this guy pulling the cow to this bonfire kinda thing by its hair.  and ripping the hair off her head with his bare hands and throwing it into the fire.  they talk about slicing the cow's head off with one blow and blood rushing out all over the people and weird shit.  then cutting off the cow's legs and throwing them on the fire with the barely alive cow.  WTF.  Im glad sacrifices have for the most part gone out of style.
