oh man i've been so exhausted this week it isn't even funny... i don't know why because i've gotten more sleep than i usually do... but i've just been dragging

this unfortunately means not as much violin as i'd like. i practiced yesterday for a couple hours and not today at all (and monday i feel asleep as soon as i got home from school)..

i'm just burned out... i need a break from everything... but now unfortunately is THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME THIS COULD BE HAPPENING!

i have a scholarship competition next week, at which i'm playing the bach E major partita... i've gotta work on it like crazy but i'm afraid that half-asleep practicing isn't going to help, so i've been doing more technique stuff that i can concentrate on more (sevcik and scales and etudes).

hopefully i'll be better for my lesson tomorrow, and more ready to work (or i'll just buy a case of red bull or bawls and caffeine myself into a state of relative insanity)...

well i'm off for now, but maybe i'll update this dealy later.
