I now have the whole first movement memorised, though it needs work but that is to be expected. I'm currently using my dad's computer. If my computer is dead this is the computer that I will be getting, which is an upgrade from mine, but a long way short from the one I was hoping of getting - this is a PIII 533mhz where as I was hoping for a P4 2.8ghz. Oh well, this one can still run Sibelius.

I'm going for a Job Interview today - Wine Tasting. Sounds cool eh? It would involve me going to various bottle shops around the metro area every Saturday night and allowing the customers to taste various wines. Sounds like a nice job that I would enjoy doing. I first applied for it as it seemed interesting and a bit of novelty, but now that I've had this interview planned for about a week for me to think about it, I've come to really looking forward for this job.

I can't say when I'll blog again, hopefully soon. It hasn't been as hard to spend some time on the computer, it's just finding the time.
