(no subject)
I'm not really ready for tomorrow. I have a test in Music History, which I'm studying for right now. There's a listening section, which really shouldn't be too hard. Most of he pieces are pretty distinctive. I just hope I can remember the full titles and what not of everything.
It's better than those stupid 20th Century Music quizzes. I really, really don't like that class. Being in it makes me stir crazy, and I'm not the only one. Today, Drew got up and left (I thought to go to the bathroom or something), but he came back and said he just had to get up and walk around. And the professor doesn't lecture or teach much at all for that matter. He expects you to be able to intelligently discuss everything he plays for us, but you almost have to already know all of it. Really, it just makes me feel stupid. I feel at least competent in my other classes...not so much in that one. We still have a paper and I think 2 more tests, and hopefully I can save my grade from after the midterm (for which he GROSSLY minimized the amount of information it would cover-not an excuse, but still). I'm actually really worried about my grade in there.
And I have (too early) arrived at the point in the school year where I'm so ready for it to be over that I'm getting lazy. I've been thinking about the summer, too, which has been distracting. I interviewed this afternoon with a day camp in NY. Eeek! So I might get to spend the summer (along with all my money, ha) in MANHATTAN!!!
Anyway, I also have a voice lesson tomorrow, and I should really have something memorized, since I have to sing in master class on Monday. Hmm. And I'm going home, and I have no clean laundry.
