No more exams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least not for awhile anyways. Victory! The only one that I'm really worried about was the one in English Literature. I thought I was well prepared going in but that exam was SCARY. A line or two of text and you had to name the author and tons of terminology questions and a few sonnet analysis questions. Anyways.....a present to self for getting through exams is an mp3 player. The most technologically advanced, portable music listening device I own is.....ready for it? A cassette player! :O *feels old* So I have found a nice mp3 player for under 100 dollars that I'm going to splurge on. I've been wanting something for quite awhile but now since ipods are all the rage mp3 players have dropped in price a lot and I have found one that seems to fit exactly what I want for a reasonable price.

I got my violin exam comments yesterday. They were all pretty accurate to my performance on that day. I didn't learn anything I didn't already know and I recieved some nice compliments on some of my technical strengths and musical abilities which was flattering!!

I re-watched "Amadeus" this past week. I hadn't seen it for quite a long time. I think the first time that I saw it I wasn't much older then 7 or 8. My parents fast-forwarded through some selected bits and would stop and explain things to me. It was fun to relive some musical memories from when I was little and enjoy a movie that though not entirely accurate to Mozart's life, is still an enjoyable film and well done.

There isn't anything else too new, just enjoying a few days with no homework which ends on Monday. *sob*
