I leave in exactly one week
I'm awaiting my final composition 2 fate, the grade on my final monstrosity of a paper, I am feeling super anxious and it's driving me nuts. I was shaking all through my piano final, that's not a good thing when you're trying to play somewhat hard selections on the piano but the teacher seemed to understand that I was nervous. He's a nice guy for the most part just soo boring. I looked at the lineup of classes at Roosevelt what I will have to take in the jazz studies program. Holy crap it's a lot of classes. I thought about taking some of those classes for music here at good old harold washington but I'm not even sure what will transfer, they told me to take music history and literature next semester but then I looked at the class schedule at Roosevelt and I'm going to have to take 4 music history courses, so I don't think a general overview is really going to fly 'cause those 4 cover very specific genres. So instead I'm not going to take ANY music courses next semester, and instead take abnormal and maybe child psychology, a history class, and bum bum bum statistics. I'm only going to take 12 credits, maybe 15 if I get inspired, but I've got my work cut out for me for the next 3 years if I'm going to Roosevelt and double majoring. I mean seriously. I need to only take classes that are going to transfer, or I'm wasting my time.
In a month I will be all applied and awaiting my audition date, that's coming up I have to prepare. I have to sing an opera song, a jazz standard ballad, an uptempo standard with scatting, a bunch of different scales and shit. Yikes. Opera? Scatting? I'm wondering if I should move downtown since I'm going to be married even more to college come next year and will have to always be practicing or working on something that requires a piano, or drive my roomates insane with my constant practicing. What about rehearsals and performances, and craziness. Can I handle this? Am I ready?
I went shopping earlier to alleviate some stress and anxiety and got my roomate Melissa a DVD and my god daughter a book called "Fancy Nancy" it looked right up her alley. I want to buy her all types of stuff, I'm also getting her a movie I can't decide between Lady and the Tramp or Little Mermaid, or Mary Poppins. I also will probably buy her clothing because I can't not buy her clothing, and also some sort of board game.
My period must be coming 'cause I feel crazy right now. I'm running hot and cold. So wierd.
