Among the Living...Kind Of

I am alive and mostly well and will be posting post haste tomorrow morning....well, morning "musician time" (which I don't have the luxury of being a part of most of the time), so think...noon.

I took my last of nine finals in three days! I had two Monday, four yesterday, and three today. I have discovered that music finals are by far, light years beyond the difficulty level of my college finals. I never had nine college finals, period, let alone in three days. And to make things worse, they're all performance oriented or pop quiz style or rearranging compositions on the spot...it's insane. Well, it's only insane if you want to do well.

Monday, one of my classmates decided he wasn't going to freak out like the rest of us and informed me, "I'm goin outside to smoke a blunt; I don't frickin care." Those are the times when I wish I were at USC or somewhere else where only (or mostly) serious students went. But, you take what you can get. :)

So, all the cold reading, technique performing, chord voicing, crash testing for courses I've never taken, days are over for two weeks. It's a much needed breather. I have loads to say but haven't had the time to jot it down. I'm sure you're anxious to read it all.

Thanks for stayin tuned.
