This is my journey to live a healthier lifestyle!

Without music life would be a mistake.
Well, I have good news! I've actually practiced since the last time I blogged. Oh, and not to mention I've even practiced twice. I came to the conclusion that I am a total slacker and I need to practice everyday to get back to where I was. Because let me be the one to tell you, it pretty much sucks when you've only practiced for ten minutes and your lips hurt so bad they won't work and feel like they are about to fall off. But I practiced for a half an hour this morning and it felt good :) Expressing yourself though music is something like no other. Especially on french horn where it is powerful and beautiful at the same time. I absolutely love it. I think I'm going to make it my goal to by the end of summer learn all my scales two octaves. At the very least learn the major scales and learn minor in the fall. But I don't want to much of a workload on me when I'm trying to learn solos also. I'm going to try and find a solo that's more of a technical piece because Op. 8 is more of a lyrical thing, at least i think. I'll have to get my instructors opinion on that one but that's my own opinion. Plus for Boston University I have to play and Etude, so I have to find a good one of those too! I will have my work cut out for me in the fall and I have a feeling that it will involve at least an hour of practice a day.. including weekends. So that means bye bye some Sean time.. but it will all be worth it in the end when we can move somewhere awesome together! I'm thinking at least a scale a day... maybe even more and I'll be set for life yo! To all you young musicians out there... learn your scales! Believe me, they come in handy when you get to college! Well my fellow musicians and what not, until next time live with no regrets.
