I hate music bibliography
I hate a lot of things besides music bibliography though. Like the news...I've stopped watching because I feel like I'm being lied to by everyone on TV. I also hate Kanye West, because for all the finger pointing and name calling he's doing, I don't see him doing a DAMN thing to help out anybody in New Orleans. I don't really care who you are...everybody, and I mean everybody, needs to stop their finger pointing and GROW THE HELL UP. I'm sick and tired of people passing the blame. How about we do something positive instead of spreading negativity.
Sorry. I just had to get that off my chest.
Moving on. And then of course I hate music bibliography...the most collosal waste of my time EVER. I already know how to do all of the stuff in this class, and what I don't know I taught myself in two minutes. It's such a stupid class with way too much work. Yesterday I spent close to fours hours doing my homework. FOUR HOURS! I spent an hour in the music library going through subject dictionaries that had nothing to do with my topic. The assignment was to do a three source annotated bibliography using subject dictionaries. Well, the subject dictionaries only cover jazz, opera, popular music, and percussion methods...my topic for the literature is the Moravian Collegium Musicum in Salem. Do you see my problem? I spend an hour in the library and 3 hours at home researching other crap for a project that doesn't even remotely help me with my topic...and that wasn't my only homework I might add. I was supposed to read a chapter in The Craft of Research and 1/2 a chapter in the teacher's text book. That would have been at least another hour. So, for a each hour of a three credit class, I'm doing between and hour and a half to FIVE hours of work per class. WHAT THE F!!!!!!!
And so, I blame music bibliography for my next statment: I'm giving up on finding a church directing job. And it's not for lack of trying to find one...trust me, I wasn't planning on giving up, but I really had to reconsider my priorities last night. There is NO WAY on God's green earth that I can direct a church choir and do all the planning that comes with it and still manage to pass my classes. I hate it because I really wanted to direct at a church and eventually I would have found something, but now I've come to realize that this stupid class is going to consume most of my waking hours not spent in class, lessons, choirs, or practice. I don't know how in the world I'm supposed to practice an hour of conducting and voice and still manage all of my homework. This is absolutely crazy.
Okay...well to cheer myself up, I'm going to play online bingo.
