i have a problem. playing the piano has taken over my life. it's pretty much become a priority over any other form of work or activity. i want to do it more than anything else. this is one of the first times where i actually want to practice for more than 4 hours a day and honestly feel like i'm only doing it for myself and no one else. not even my teachers.
IT IS DESTROYING MY LIFE. I DON'T CARE ABOUT DOING MUCH ELSE. even composing, which is why this is so bad because composing used to keep me sane and prevented me from getting too bored playing other peoples' music. this hasn't happened. maybe it's because i've been playing such better music compared to last year?? no. i think i should take off one day a week of piano so i can finish the ebow piece i've had in my head for a while.
speaking of which, the guy who makes ebows stopped making them. yeah apparently it's just one guy who makes them, and he's stopped. this sucks because i wanted to buy about 5 more of them before i graduated for compositions i want to make.
i don't know about school. i hate that i'm almost halfway done with college and already feel like half my classes have been a waste.
but the good news is that i learned a prokofiev sonata really quickly and it's the besttttttttttttmusicever.
