Well, Mr. Neal's scheduling idea worked.
I can now safely practice two-two and a half hours a day.
I found the GREATEST practice room on campus:
It's the drama club storage room.
It's a really echoey room, which I love, and the second mov. of the Bach A minor sounds SO pretty back there!
So I can practice there from 9:30 to 10:30 every morning, with my music propped up in my case, surrounded by costumes and scenery and boxes.

I was up studying again last night though.
That's the only problem with practicing a lot.

Oh, and I tripped on my violin backpack straps the other day, fell on the sidewalk, and lacerated my knees and feet. It's SO GROSS! My knees are pretty much scabbed over, but my feet are still...well...ripped up with gunk oozing out of them...

I have to pack a lunch now. Ta ta!

Yeah, I love echoy rooms. Embarassing...falling...BFF.
