So yah This week I went to Nate's house from my last journal entry which was last Monday till now the 29th of Jan..It was great.
I took the MTA train all by myself for the first time...I have taken it before with people but never by myslef so I feel very happy!! Until that is when Nate called and was freaking me out telling me that he thinks I'm on the wrong train and telling me that there are no trains from Fordham(where I took the train)to Katonah. I was freaking out but it turned out I was on the right train and he was just freaked out but its all good..he didn't want me to get lost which was why he was freaking out...When I got out the train and he picked me up we was listenin to the NY PHILL DO SCHEREZADE..I dont know how the hell yah spell it...I'll spell check it later..Then we got home and chilled..Then we watched White Chicks. It was me and Nate and Dave and we laughed every single second of the entire movie.
We went to Purchase the next day for him to have a meeting with his trombone Choir and then we went to ISO. Had mad fun in ISO cause we had sectionals with the players from the London Symphony Orchestra. It was amazing!! We got the principal trumpet player!!Rod Franks!! He was amazing and the things he said helped alot to play the Britten and the Brahms alot better. He played Mahler 5 for us since he had to play it the next day. Then rehearsal also went really well. Alot better than in the beginning..So I think the Britten will be fine..
Thursday me and Nate went back to Purchase because he had a lesson and I called up Ian and Devon and we had an all you can eat breakfast buffet...It was good!!Hahaha....but I felt sorry since Nate kept saying he was hungry so I stole bagels for him...hahaha!!He ate it in like 2 secs so he was MAAD hungry!!Then we went to where he works and he worked from 1-6 with no break while I watched Tv and played trumpet for 45 min like a lazy ass...After that we drove like the speed of light to try and get to our two younger students concert.Traffic was a biiattch!!But we made it...15 minutes late.....Oh yea and I got a mini asthma attack!!Haha cause it was liek 0 degress outside and we ran..So Nate started to get worried but I tried what his mom told me and went out and got a cup of coffee..It helps calm the asthma down..but it dosnt go away..So luckly Ms.Wanger knew a Doctor who was able to call a local Duane Read pharmacy and get me a prescription of a Albuterol Pump...THANK GOD SHE WAS THERE!! So after that me and Nate had to go donw to 60th st to get the pump(and there was problems there...)but after I called my mom and got the insurance straightened out it wad fine..Nate found a parking so I bought dinner which sucked for me cause they had no ham so I had to get Turkey ham which sucks!!The we haded home and watched Harry Potter 3!!Hehehe I love that movie..Then we drifted to bed!!
Friday Nate wanted to have a Mock Audition for me his dad and Dave. So we did that at like 1:20 which was cool. He sounded amazing and Eastman better accept him cause if they dont then they have problems...Nate impressed me the most with his Solo peice..his etude and his Symphonic Metamorphosis excepts which were amazing! He plays more musical then any young Musician I have ever heard and he gets it from his dad and Music his embroided in the center of his heart and its an amazing thing I think. I want to get the same inspiration he has. After than I ate the other half of my sandwhich and then we went out to go do things..I dont remember what they were but it involved getting this thing from State Farm..and going to Dunkin Doughnuts and me him Dave and Mike dogged down the doughnuts whole!!Haha Mr.Pete Pe had one also..We just hung and went to the Library to get movies...We ate pasta and Dave's buddy George came over..He is mad funny I think...Mad cool also...U should see the way he tries to cut the pasta...haha!!Priceless!! Then we went to get his mom at the station and then we went to get some Food and the Chinese store...Nothing big I just got Dumplings...He got the same thing with a Veggie Eggroll..Ms Riet got Hot and Sour Soup. When we got home we ate and then we watched Traffic which was maaad long and confusing but I got it when it ended..It was a cool movie...We watched maddd movies!!There like big on watchin movies up there!!Then we listened to Kinhaven tapes and then we fell asleep listening to Barber Adagio for Strings..
Dam...this entry is long!!...O well...Its my week so wat!!...On Sat which is Today!!haa..We woke up and I took a shower cause I always smell...And then I like dragged NATE OUtta bed cause he is maad lazy..Then we had breakfast and chilled..I had cereal and he had a bagel...I aint want the bagel so its all good..So then we chilled after that and just hanged...Haha then I gave Nate the hug from Heavan and left with Mr.Pete Pe as we ventured off towards the city and Nate went to take a shower and pick up Mike..He is recording later with his band so good luck to that..Im sure it shall go fine..Me and Mr.Pete Pe had interesting convos in the car. I love driving with him cause he has so much to say and so much to teach!!On anything! Everytime I talk to him he has so much to say!! I love it! He parked at like 96 st and we took the trian down..I got to Juilliard like 10 minutes late but its all good! I got to play Ewald 3 with Mr.Szor!! It was awesome!! I loved every minute of it!!After that I went to Orchestra only to find out I am the only trumpet player there.....And Tiffany is the only Horn player there...And Only 2 trombones..Geroge and Johnathan and Colin on Tuba! So it was cool...Then I left early and went to eat with Brian Yates which was cool cause we went to this reeeallllly goood chinese place on 72st and I recommend it to anyone who is really hungry and feels like eating Good Chinese food!! Better than Olies and Yin Chien!
