hi, its been awhile, yes I know. We have a concert on May 14th, and guess who is not ready? ALL OF OUR CLASS! we had to spend all the last week and 1/2 on preparing for a student concert, and the music was really hard, and now we have like 15 days to pull together 4 pieces. My violist for the Martinu Three Madrigals refuses to read treble clef, and since her part is a lot of treble clef, I might just have to kill her. It hurts so much when someone in your group will not learn their music. ERG!oh well, bye all!

WOW! I am such a slacker. Major, talk about not learning teh all state music and Mend. is KICKING MY BUTT! erg. but, hey what can ya do?? I am soo scared about Friday, I am sooo not prepared. and I really wanted to keep myself in the top 4 chairs, what a joke! I will be ecstatic if I place in the top 7 or 8. erg. I am soo angry at myself. My other private lesson seems to be taking up all my other time. ERG ERGERGERGERG. but, oh well. It is 9:30 and I am soo tired. But yeah, the "fiddler" that cam to our school on Friday, wasnt nearly as painful and torturous as we thought it was going to be. It was weird though trying to reteach yourself stuff in less than 2 hours. well, gotta erun, bye chicks-Jules

Well, today I feel as if I love violin, so I have decided that I just have bad days. Way too often, but bad days none-the-less. Well, this woman called me this morning wanting me to check out an instrument she bought off of Ebay. Her son has shown real interest in playing violin and so she bought it as a surprise for him, but wants me to see if it is crap or not. So, that should be interesting to see. It would be cool if she bought something of great value. I might have to keep it. hehehe

Well, right now I am thinking about music possiblities. Am I made for this?? The stress and the CRAP that all goes along with it?? I dunno. Certain techers have made me want to quit!! Am I just weak?? Can I not withstand the pressure of violiniing?? I dont know if this is what I wan t to do anymore. I mean, I started soo late. I have an awfukl time memorizing anyhting and I just dont know if I want to drag those that I love into something of this magnitude. I know that my boyfriend has to hate all the times that I complain about back problems or bad audtions. I hate doing this to him. He doesn't really even enjoy the whole classical music thing, but for some reason I still care soo much about him. And then all of those people reading this are going: Why does she care what her boyfriend thinks?? Well, my parents (specifically my father) seems to want it more than I do, which is sad. If over the summer I dont practice at lesast 5 hours I have committed some big bad sin and I dunno. My boyfriend is one of the only people who has ever just said do it because you want to. Evan has always backed me up and for that I thank and love him. Violin is sooo hard to get to practice now. Exams and extra classes have consumed my life. I dont even want to go to a conservatory anymore, WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?????

wow I have been so swamped. Learning Mendelssohn and Bach Partitas quickly has been a challenge. I went straight from Bach a minor to the big Mendelssohn. go figure. I have finals coming up this week and Zaidman (of course the AP English teacher) has given us all an exam that we have al been preparing for for like the past 2 weeks. oooooh boy is it going to be hard. I am here working on it now and it isnt until Thursday. onyl have 3 hours to take it. erg. All state is coming up, the music is tricky, not just a little bit tricky but like, wow I have to start it soon if I am going to uphold my much-wanted position of 4th chair or higher in the state. Rehearsals and practicing has taken over my life and not onyl that but I am going to have to start thinking of college soon. yay. (cant you just see the sarcasm dripping in that comment?) but ya know, I gotta trust God in all of this. Which is my advice to everyone on this site, try not to stress (if that is possible with musicians) and just chill out and pray to God about it. Well, I am gonna jet, got Zaidman (shiver) to work on. Just checkin in with my pals again.
