First of all, got two absolutely amazing new POTO soundtracks just this week! Just on Monday, I got that soundtrack from the Charles Dance mini-series that I've been wanting for ages, and then just today I got the soundtrack to the little-known but totally amazing Alonso/Tilford musical adaptation. And I am in awe of the latter! Musically, it ( Read more... )

LOL I really need to get a watch ( Read more... )

So this is it! I've at least gotten all the main contents of my room packed up and more or less ready to go. I didn't get all the paper shit in my closet sorted though. I'll have to come back and do that throughout the week. Arg! It's so freakin slow sorting it on the damned scanner! And half of it, the damned thing can't read anyway, either ( Read more... )

Well, had my violin jury this morning, and it went considerably better than it could have considering how little I've practiced. My bad, I know. But for some reason I just couldn't seem to click with my pieces this year, though I know that's not a good reason for not practicing.

So lately Mom and I have been taking an odesy through the music of the great singer-song-writers, ever since seeing Jonny Cash Walk the Line (the movie of his biography that was nominated for a couple of Oscars last year). We're currently working through Bob Dillen's albums thanks to the university's library. Anyway, last night Mom brought home ( Read more... )

I went to Phantom again last night! Words utterly fail to express the sheer ecstacy that that throws me into! I had been so afraid that I'd get to the box-office only to find it entirely sold out. But, although it's pretty tight, I was able to squeeze two more tickets! One of them is for the day after my violin jury as a self-reward, which is a ( Read more... )

Ah the joys of extremely limited internet access. Unfortunately though, it looks like it's going to be quite a long time before I'll be able to get my own access at home restored. Arg! Does that ever suck! But that's the way the cash crumbles ( Read more... )

I just registered for the Icarus Project discussion forums with some sighted help.  But the confirmation email hasn't gotten through yet.  I'm going to head on home now, but I hope that it will come through and that there haven't been any technical glitches.  I'm really interested in, if somewhat nervous about, getting their feedback on certain ( Read more... )
