And then, stuff
I just finished a marathon of Yotsuba&! chapters. Since ADV hasn't released anything since - get this - October of 2005, I found a site with downloads. So , I read volumes four, five, six, and the two from seven. Eeee, Yotsuba's so cute. xD
Anyways, this Thursday is my "spring" band concert. (Also the 'spring' concert for Haya...and Ryu...and Aiyanna.) I hate the song "Puszta" with a passion. Damn you Jan Van der Roost and your obsession with 7-uplets, gypsies, clarinet solos, trills, awkward key signatures, and bizarre fingerings!
But between "Puszta" and "The Solitary Dancer", I have ten occurrences of which I play by myself, including two solos. 'Dancer' wouldn't be so bad if it didn't have weird entrances and stuff.
On Friday, we had band. And on Friday, I got yelled at by the director. ('Yelled' is used freely, it's more like I got 'severely scolded'.) First off, my second oboe distracted me by asking "why is there a mirror in here?" right before my entrance and solo in 'Dancer'. We also used her music for the day (we share a stand), and she has nothing marked in music. I missed sharps and flats and naturals and everything.
Ugh. Freshman.
But besides that, I also have to finish a pain-in-the-ass self-portrait for painting class. It's due Wednesday, but with my track record, I need to really get working on it. It's also in acrylic, so the paint doesn't spread that much. And it's also in a monochromatic color scheme, the biggest pain to paint with. This piece also marks my fifth self-portrait of the year. No wonder I'm not that into it.
I've discovered that oil paint is really cool because it lasts forever and spreads wonderfully. We painted a still-life of fruit, and I finished Thursday. I think it turned out well because we got to use the actual colors we saw - no converting. :\
*sigh* I hate this time of the year...
