My music will go on forever. Maybe it's a fool say that, but when me know facts me can say facts. My music will go on forever
I know it's been a while since I updated but things have actually been picking up around here. Well, mostly at least. I've been trying to practice my horn more but it's been complicated. I'm stuck for almost an hour in a closet that's "walk in" but imagine it full of not only clothes but putting a chair in there plus my ghetto stand, which really isn't a stand at all. It's simply a box i sit music on that's leaned up against the wall. So there's that plus I'm in this closet that has no vent and I keep the door closed to try to keep as much sound from bothering my neighbors as possible. But it's all good and I'm making the best of it. I've been practicing my latest solo that I told you about in an earlier blog my Franz Strauss and it's coming along nicely. Not as fast as I'd like it but I believe by the time auditions come around I will be prepared. As soon as lessons start up again I'm going to hit it extra hard and play it for an upcoming recital. I've changed my mind on colleges, again. haha I'm thinking the main school I want is University of Florida and my backup (which I know my high school band director can pull some strings to get me in anyway) is Troy University. Both are really good school but UF is known for things, you know. But great news is I got a saxophone! My lovely boyfriend bought it for me for my birthday :) You don't have to tell me, I know he's amazing. So I've been learning that and I must say it's harder than I thought it would be. I just have to get used to the whole reed thing and how to make the sound. I need to find some really good music to learn and print out some scales. It's going to be awesome once I'm good at it though. Once school starts up and I'll have a practice room to practice in I think I'm going to play horn on odd days and saxophone on even and then when I get home, if I have time, I'll play the opposite. That way I'll be playing both everyday so I'll get some awesome practice time in:) I've been a forgetful Freddy lately and keep forgetting that school starts Monday. I had already scheduled my eye appointment for a time and day when I have class, and not to mention math class, but now i scheduled a job interview for the second day of classes. Oh gee, I hope this isn't a look into what this semester is going to be like. Note to self and everyone out there, just write things down! haah well I'm going to go finish watching schooby-doo. Until next time, live with no regrets.
