Firstly, I don't have ANY obligations today, which means I can stay home all day and practice. In fact, I'm right now in the midst of my break between orchestra excerpts and Bach.
I had a party last night. I spent forever cleaning up my backyard, only for about 40 rowdy high schoolers to cram into and trash anyway. Oh well, it was good good (clean) fun.
Tomorrow is my lesson/audition/whatever with Helen Kwalwasser. I am pretty darn nervous, to be honest, but excited too. The Bach is in a good state, and so is everything else I had to learn/prepare. So, we shall see.
Tanglewood is coming up. In fact, I'm leaving on Thursay. We're going to drive up to Boston first to visit my uncle, and then head over on the 4th. *Teenage-esque squeal of excitement*
I feel like I have a very short attention span today for anything other than violin. Forgive me for my randomness; sometimes I just can't help it. Heh.
Met a girl.
Ciao,
Elena
