Mental

Ok, well obviously there is some mental stuff going on in my life since I literally live at an institute of higher education. I love my classes!

The courses I'm taking this Semester:
Individual Piano Instruction
Individual Voice Instruction
Keyboard Harmony II
Aural Skills II
Music Theory II
String Techniques
Percussion Techniques
University Chorale
Basic Nutrition
Lap Swimming
Mission Preparation

Wow! That seems like a lot more when it's written down! And this semester, I'm taking less credits! Wow!

Well, I am busy as you can see but it's awesome! I love what I'm doing. For my technique classes, I am learning a number of different instruments in those respective sections. Currently I am learning viola and the snare drum but will eventually learn the violin, bass, and marimba (or another mallet percussion instrument but most likely marimba). I was told I would not be able to play the cello since my professor learned I had played the cello before.

Now more than ever, I miss my cello so much!


Cello is one of the most beautiful instruments ever created and well I'm going through a mini-depression without it... Anyway. Love school and I'm glad it's started again.

Wow... that is a LOT of classes Andrew. I had no idea...I'm totally impressed and excited for you!

The cello really is beautiful. I can see why you miss it. The grass is always greener. You'll have your day, I have no doubt. : )

I look at your classes and think, fun, fun, fun, just keep up on each one . . . I know you will. Have a great semester.

Wow, I didn't know you had to know such a variety of instruments. That is so cool! Maybe you should learn the flute and we can jam!;) You seriously have a HUGE class load by the way. Music majors must be way intensified:)
