It is done.
I FINISHED MY COLLEGE APPLICATIONS.
Well, almost. I still have to compile my supplement and put it online. And I have to get my transcripts and test scores in.
REGARDLESS, THE REST OF THE APPLICATIONS ARE IN.
Anyone wanna celebrate? -
A musical de-Bach-le; culture shifts.
I'm on day umpteen of trying to find music for my college solos (Putto and something else), and I settled on two pieces: Chopin's Mazurka in A minor, op. 17, no. 4, and the Concerto no. 10 Allegro from L'estro armonico by Vivaldi.
I was a little confused at first because it sounded just like the Allegro from Bach's Concerto in A minor for Four ( Read more... ) -
Experiencing "sublime", staying up late, and college.
So I'll begin with Sunday. As we were driving back to school it looked like it was going to rain. The sky was a deep gray -- not a typical "oh, it's going to rain" gray, but the gray when lightning flashes purple and trees get uprooted because the wind is blowing so hard. The sky was about the color of pencil lead. Usually rain isn't my favorite ( Read more... ) -
Happy Thanksgiving.
My Thanksgiving was more tolerable than the ones I've had in the past. Don't get me wrong, they were never terrible, but meeting so many new family members in one day can be aggravating.
We went to the house my mom grew up in just over the South Carolina border. She had told us about it before. "I literally grew up in a shack," she would say, but ( Read more... ) -
Third day at home.
The left corner of my left eye hurts. I scrubbed it too hard again because that's a popular hang-out spot for my pimples. Now it itches and stings ( Read more... ) -

I came home for Thanksgiving break early. My first day at home was eventful enough I guess ( Read more... ) -
One down, one to go!
We had our first dance performance tonight. It was awesome. Capriccioso was good (no stumbling), and mine went well too. I'm glad people laughed. Lloyd's was Lloyd's; I didn't enjoy or dislike doing it. Sacred Places was together too. Everyone danced the best I've seen them this year ( Read more... ) -
Ah, theatre.
I saw The Greeks tonight. It was a combination of two different plays: Agamemnon and The Trojan Women. The play were directed by two different directors, and I appreciated that fact; the first one (which I actually think was Trojan) was more percussive, while the second was more lyrical. It's ironic because no one died in the first one (except a ( Read more... ) -
11.18.08. I don't know what else to call it.
We had a run-through of our performance today, and for the most part it went well. It was good to finally see the result of everyone's hard work. Sandra's choreography is looking a lot more cohesive and actually nice this year, good for her! Lloyd is Lloyd, which is repetitive and has good ideas that in my opinion don't get quite developed.
