Ick.

Today is a sticky day. I motion that muggy days in October be banned and made to pay everyone a $100 fine. Ha, ha. I can just see the entry in the student handbook--"Any day in October that fails to comform to the following guidlines will be fined $100..." (Yes, I am poking fun at ETBU)
I had a WONDERFUL practice this morning! I have got the first two pages of that #!&#@ Chopin Prelude mostly memorized! Victory at last! By the way, I really like the piece, but it has been, to quote Elise, "eating my socks." The infuriating thing about Chopin is that he was a pianist, so everything in his fantastically complicated peices is totally doable. Cheater! I really like Chopin, but I am frusterated becuase I have been having the hardest time memorizing it. The Bach fugue on the other hand... : ) I am a hopeless Bach fan. I can't help myself.
I had a Brit. Lit. Test today. The one question that I know for sure I goofed was the one about when Milton wrote Paradise Lost. I said he started writing the year he died. : / That was silly. I must have a stern talk with my gut instinct...
We get to start working on Christmas music in choir today (I think)! I am so excited! I love being in choir, even if we do have to wear the ugliest, most uncomfertalbe, least flattering, most expensive dresses possible. (There is some exageration, but if you had to wear one of these things, you would be singing that tune too.) The concert went really well. My world is (for the moment) peaceful and good. (fingers crossed)
