Hm. The funny thing is.. I'm almost constantly busy.. but feel like reporting nothing. Maybe it's the fact that just about everybody has gone to Xanga, and since I am not on Xanga, I am missing quite a lot of information... but I can't be bothered to look any of that up or actually join another journal site. Why do people need five journals, anyway? Meh, doesn't bother me. There's nothing more uninteresting than reading someone else's journal... except maybe reading about their dreams, or something.
Got my ears done, finally! I'd wanted that industrial, but industrial + headphones = no good, and since I have to wear headphones for my piano class... mneh. So I got my tragus done on both sides instead and I love them, love them, love them. Second day in and it's hardly painful at all. I've heard so many horror stories regarding these piercings (I did my research first!) but I didn't find it bad at all. Well.. there were a few seconds on my left side where the pain really sucked (and for me to be saying that... that's a pretty high level of suckage) but after those few intense moments it was gone, poof. I never had a single doubt throughout the entire process.. nothing I couldn't handle, and no lingering pain at all. The rumored cartilage 'crunch' was just a 'pop' sound which I actually found rather entertaining. (If you know me, this may not come as a surprise.)
I'll spare the details of the procedure as I've quickly learned which of my friends are sensitive to stories involving puncturing and needles and such... but I found it quite pleasant, and I'd do it again, I think. I really love them.
Got second chair in band. I believe Tim is quite angry at me. His way of rationalizing it was "Well good for her for having the time - I worked all summer." He thinks I practiced all summer long, poring over every precious note, in some grand scheme to score ahead of him. I don't think I'll tell him that I didn't see the audition music until a few days before my tryout. If you know me, you'll know that even if I HAD the music, I wouldn't have bothered with it anyway. My audition last year was just that bad. It was horrible, bah. Hopefully he won't hate me forever and in time I'll show him it wasn't a fluke.
First tenor in jazz band, too... and already I have two freaking long solos.. but they might be okay. We'll see. I think jazz was my first love, the one thing I really fell head-over-heels for. This year has a lot of great music in store, and I'm way excited.
Hmm... I suppose that's all for now. There's no real point to these updates, just some random rambling... it's strange how I just don't see people these days. I don't know if I'm just not looking, or what.
