Hmm. . .
Yesterday in LA we had a test on the Scarlet Letter. I think I did badly. I wrote far too personally in the essay, which probably counted a lot. There were two questions to choose from, and the first one was pretty weird and I didn't agree with it at all. The second I really felt personally connected to, so I wrote about that. I had such personal insights, however, that they all came out in a rather disorganized rush. I didn't want to say too much but I had to write something, so I'm very confused, and I don't think I let out too much, but I think I did pretty badly. I just couldn't organize it. It won't upset me that much; I just resonated so much that it disturbed my brain. I don't think I could have controlled it. Ah well. Um. Just thought of something. I didn't give anything away to anyone who hasn't taken the test, right? I think they all knew the format. I hope so.
It's been a good week. In Youth Orchestra, I met the new hornist, who played well despite the transposition he'd never done before. It wasn't a bad way to start. If you look at the music beforehand, you can work out the notes, and the horn parts we were playing were a bunch of repeating phrases, so it was good for him. Fwoosh. The other hornists, all of whom I already knew, are quite well, and we have eight of them! That's a full complement, unless you really want an assistant first for the symphonic orchestra. Speaking of that, I'm first in the Symphonic Orchestra. I don't know why. It should be Serena, she's a senior and very good. Maybe because I was assistant first last year? I don't know. Hmm hmm. Mr. Enz put me on second in one of the pieces with two parts, so I suspect we'll be switching around for different pieces to gain experience ^^. Ms. Wightman said something like that. Wheeeeeeeeee!
The choir party last night was fun, with much singing and dancing and other miscellaneous fun. I went home and talked to people and stayed up writing a sonnet in Chinese. I don't know why. I've never written a sonnet in English. It wasn't too too bad, but a bit random at times, though the randomness was usually connected somehow. Strange Caitlin. I'm looking forward to the three day weekend. Time to sleep and time to be with people! Yay!
I just realized something interesting. When I write things of different nature, like "And time to be with people! yay!" I keep a straight face, but if I were saying it to some one I'd be smiling maniacally. I'm feeling the same way, and in my head I have this "smile maniacally" feeling, but it doesn't manifest itself.
Poof poof. I've run out of ideas. Farewell for the time being!
