ohhhh blogs. :P Stuff is good here...finally starting to feel good about my trombone playing. I played with James this morning (damn hes really good) and held my own on everything except for the scales in 3rds. Time to get goin on those, no more ignoring it. Colin and James both were accepted to Indiana for grad school, and each earned at $10,000 scholarship. Kudos to them, if I can ever be half as good as they are someday, I'll be really happy.

Attended the Phi-Mu Alpha recital this evening. What an experience. I've never seen such a mixed up group of guys perform. The trumpeteers were funny, but I think my favorite was when Colin and Salwass got up and sang a song called "The Red and Black." (country-style) It got even better when James, Ben Lester, and Boll all came out and played random instruments (aka a cheese grater, spoons and a Dennis Wick Straight Mute.) And Vernie played his solo well....what a tough piece. Overall a really entertaining evening.

I have yet to figure out what I'm going to do this summer for money. Not gonna lie, I'm starting to get really worried that I won't have enough to pay for next semester. I know living in the house is a lot cheaper, but I'm still worried. I hope to hear about some gigs soon that I can play along with my summer fulltime job.

Time to get some sleep before piano class tomorrow.

Goodnight all,

Love,
Rachel
