I'm really sick again for the third or fourth time in a couple of months.
It snow flurried today while I was grocery shopping for 2 and 1/2 hours.
The Backyard was fine until lately. I don't know why I have absolutely no drive to drink or party anymore; all I want to do is sleep, but on the weekend's it's nearly impossible unless you're wasted/have ear plugs. Of which I have/am neither.
I was supposed to go to Mardi Gras this weekend but Symphonic Band had a performance last night as part of the Festival of New Music. It was good, and Wind Orchestra kicked ass as always -- but it kind of makes me really jealous to have my friends call me wastedly from Bourbon Street having the time of their lives and compare it to what I'm doing -- studying and laying in bed on Saturday night.
So I made FSU Brass Theater and got a co-lead trombone/baritone spot. I have a couple of solos [assuming everything works out] and I'm extremely excited for all of the rehearsals to begin this upcoming Friday.
My mom gave me her full backing for picking up a double major in Accounting this summer. I have now had 5 majors in college -- to put it in perspective, I've been here for 4 semesters. I've yet to be as excited about any of them [including music], though, so hopefully it will stick. Plus, as shallow as it seems, money is a very big part of a comfortable lifestyle and I have reminders all around me [most of my friends] that a good job that I'd like and be competent at that can pay a lot is what would ultimately make me happiest.
It causes confusion though. Just like everything else does, but I'm trying to stay upbeat.
