So here we are.
There is sooooo many... interesting... things going on with this choir that I'm starting! It's extrEMELY hard to get 9 college music students to pin down a time to rehearse... Everyone is sooo busy! I'm not faulting them by any means, and these things happen, but it just gets kind of frustrating. I already had to tell one person that it would be too hard because of her schedule, and I feel terrible about it. Here's hoping that no one else does that! First (official) rehearsal is going to be this week come hell or high water (I'm personally hoping for high water, because hell just sounds unpleasant...)
In other news, I moved! For you DePauw-ites, I moved from Senior Hall to one of the duplexes on Jackson St... For you non-DePauw-ites, I moved from a shitty dorm to a less shitty apartment.
As much as I just LOVED hearing the people upstairs of me "back that ass up, back that, back that ass up," it just wasn't cutting it for me.
And now I can actually cook for myself! I'm getting off the meal-plan! Tonight I made a delicious chicken dish that involved cubing a breast (of chicken, you perverts), soaking it in a mix of soy sauce and "Italian Seasoning," which consists of oregano, thyme, rosemary and sage (all that's missing is the parsley, right? Har har...). Then I sliced some onion and a couple cloves of garlic and put it all into my gigantic wok. Then I put it over a bed of steamed rice. It was sooo delicious. Looking forward to more great food! I also want to get back to baking, so let me know your favorite desserts and I'll make them for you!
Oh my gosh you guys my recital is coming up and I'm SO FREAKIN' EXCITED! I was gonna wait but I just can't anymore - I'm gonna show you the poster for it.
Credit to Morgan Burke for making the poster.
Of course, it'll be super embarrassing if I fail my recital jury and then will have to be like "um... the recital is now moved" and all but you know what some people are gonna call me cocky for putting out the poster super early like this and they'll just have to DEAL WITH IT.
So yeah, you all should come. That's the moral of that story.
BAI BAI.
You missed a kahakō in Kalākaua =P Not that anyone up there is likely to notice xD No, but seriously... how exciting!!! You better have a recording to send to those of us who are an unfortunate couple thousand miles away from seeing you... boo! Lol. I know what you mean about scheduling - Colla Voce is practically impossible, too. We always end up having at least one person who seriously just can't make any of the times we schedule. That's why sectionals are really good, because then only half the group has to come to a consensus, not everyone. It's a shitty deal, but I would definitely recommend it as an option if you can't get a regular tutti time, or if your tutti time is severely limited. You could get away with as little as 30-45 min tutti rehearsal if you also have like a 45min sectional each week, and the commitment only comes out to an hour and a half at most. But I dunno how it works there - we have to remember that UH is a commuter school... so there are a lot of people who stay on campus during the day and leave at night, etc.
