(no subject)
thanksgiving break is too short to be really worth anything. I mean, i have so much work to do, and with all the plane rides and stuff, it almost would've been easier just to stay in maryland. Not that i don't like being home and all, but it's just kind of a hassle.
I cancelled plans to go out tonight to work on my programming project, and i actually made significant progress!! I'm like 95% done with project 5, which means that the last 5% is picky details that I can work out with TAs on monday. (I go, "why am i failing this release test?", they go "just change your code here to include this free() statement and you're done". Unfortunatly i don't get a break, project 6 is assigned and that looks like it'll be tough, plus math exam this friday, and finals coming up. Yikes!!
I just watched the Dresden Dolls documentary/movie type thing from their dvd. It was hardly entertaining.. the live show of them was OK, but it dosn't capture the true essence of seeing them live. plus the dvd has too few songs, i need gravity, the jeep song, karma police.. it seems like they cut songs from the beginning of their show which is actually the most fun part of the show to watch (when brian is doing all of his mime stuff) Missed me captured that a little.. i guess the dvd is worth the price
So did that whole thanksgiving thing again this year. I think the alumni band worked out really well. It's funny how elissa and i planned the whole year for something that only lasted about 10 minutes, but still, it was fun, and we were nice and loud (you could hear us on tv).
I don't want to say this but i think im catching a cold again. i hate my body for being so suceptible to temperature change, but whenever it gets suddenly cold, i always end up catching a cold. The moral of this story is i need to work out more, but with all the school work and marching band stuff, who knoows when.
I'm nervous about going back to school and playing drums. I kind of want to quit or go back to playing trumpet. I mean, i love playing the drums and all, but it's really really stressful. At the last rehersal i screwed up a little bit and got yelled at, and it just made me realize how competitive the drumset really is, and I don't want to be setting myself up for failure. Plus, i don't have any formal training with snare techinique or anything like the other drummers have.. i dunno, i guess i'll see what happens...
The FLUiD dvd was kind of interesting to watch.. that's about it..
I don't really have anything more to say.
