About a week ago I went to a Beyond the Pale concert. I haven't stopped singing since. I love celtic music! Being able to play music in the Excort has been AWSOME! I want to get a walkman adaptore pluggy thingie though so I can listen to CD's. I was thinking the other day about how people always had to listen to tapes. CD's were a major sound break through! So, sadly tapes must go the way of the dinosaure. Sniff. No more flipping, no more distorted sound, and no more fun grimly picking the tape out of the machine and wondering if you can a) wind it back up again, and b) is it the tape or a hungry tape player at fault. I feel old! I actually remember activly using tapes! At least I don't activly remember records! Then I would be really old. However, records were cool. You just couldn't play them in your car without taking up most of the room. : )
I had a really bad day until my lesson. I had fun. I get to learn the fugue that goes with my Bach Prelude! Life is cool! Before that I had a Monday. Yuck. I stoped at a light and forgott to shift down into first gear. For some strange reason I had a very hard time getting going again. I though I had broken the Escort. Oops. Then I went to theory and discovered agian that if you are going to be working with Diatonic triads, you have to start counting on scale step 1, not 2. Oops. In Ear training I didn't hear the first intervale in the test, so the first four intervales are off, and I made up an intervale for 5. After that everything is alright. I was distracted becuase I was trying to remember how 6/8 rythem worked. Oops. I had to put gas in the Escort today. That was more fun this time becuase I remembered how to get the gas cap off. I also remembered what side the gas cap was on.
Dispite all that, I am feeling much better. I am learning a Fugue! How can anyone learning a Fugue be unhappy? (Yes, I am strange for all you non music people out there.) I wonder how tomorrow is going to go? Can't wait to find out!
