Bach is almost done. Duet with Myself

November 26, 2007 11:34

I'm almost done with Bach's Invention #8 in F Major. YAY! It has been 10 lessons of harrd work and it's almost done.
I've also played my first duet with myself in church, I recorded the piano part and then played the violin to it. It turned out ok but I forgot the ending and made something up that sounded halfway decent. k

Nervous while Recording, I am.

November 15, 2007 17:34

Is it just me or do others out there get nervous and start messing up when you know that you're being recorded? I was asked to replay my offeratory that I had played Sunday Morning, due to the fact that they messed up the recording. (And might I add it was almost flawless) Anyways that evening when I rerecorded it I lost my place and that ruined part of the song, then I kept messing up! Arrgg! I was so angry. I still am for that matter.

I finally finished my church's teen video. It turned out good, it's a laugh. To bad none of you out there will be able to see it. : ( Although I know I could do better I've been trying to finish it since I started it last month. Well I'm done!

Hopefully I haven't bored anyone too much. I want a grand piano, if you would like to donate please e-mail me. Only joking, kind of.

My First Day

November 13, 2007 21:00

I didn't make much, on my first day. I worked four hours, helped four people with their groceries, and got $15 which isn't bad. I guess. I'm satisfied. It's better than nothing.

MY FIRST JOB! and New Cube

November 6, 2007 21:10

I've got a call back on my first job! I'll be working as a bagger at the Comissary starting next week! You may be wondering what this has to do with violin, but this will get me to college, in order to take music. At Pensacola Christian College all music majors are required to learn violin, viola, cello, or bass. So this applies I guess. I hope I do well at this job.
I also got a Rubik's Revenge. Which I'm still trying to figure out. Just if you didn't know. A Rubik's Revenge is Rubik's Cube but the dimensions are 4x4x4. I got it at Wal-Mart for $13.
