Ok, so I'm a couple hours late in getting this to you all. I'm really sorry, but that's what will end up coming of it. I would have done it sooner, but these emulator things are just so addicting......but that is for a later paragraph, not now. I tend to do things chronologically, sorry.
First, I pulled an all-nighter. Should I have done so? No. In the end, was it worth it? No. Did I end up sleeping all day, and therefore missing class? Yes. Did I have a legitimate reason? Yes. I WAS SICK!! WOO-HOO!!!!!! I'M NORMAL!!!!!!!! I was starting to worry that I was a freak because I haven't gotten sick since freshman year of high school. Yeah, I'm that much of a freak....I gotta tell you, I welcome the runny nose. I could do without the coughing however. It's a bother when I'm trying to talk.
I have found a new love in my musical life. LIMEWIRE!!! I can get any song I want online for free (and copyright can shove it, those people make enough money. I'm sick of them flaunting it everywhere.), listen to it, and share music I own as well! I've heard both sides of the copyright argument. And I do have to say that it seems evident which side I support, but if the people making money off of these songs and movies were so concerned about it, they would a) actively try to stop it, and b) wouldn't hoard all their money, but instead donate it or their time to something worthwhile, instead of throwing a fit on Entertainment Weekly or the Today Show for ten minutes about something that no one cares about, like a chipped nail, or scientology.
Next Topic: Musicality and Musicianship. I don't know what to make of this, but being an instrumentalist for going on my ninth year (trumpets are the best by the way. HIGH BRASS KICKS ASS!), and a vocalist for my second, and a pianist for my first, you would think I'd have a little more respect for the field of study. I want to major in choral education. But I'm not showing the discipline enough interest anymore. I seriously need some advice here. I don't know what to do. I mean, music will always be my life, and I really want to teach it, but I can't get motivated enough to practice. If that motivation were there, I'd do it twice, thrice daily or more. I'm slowly losing my trumpet chops, meaning I can't play some of the high notes anymore, and my regular range notes are becoming more difficult to play with a good tone. I just don't know what to do.
Onto another topic that just now started giving me troubles. Friendship, and when it goes too far, or too few. One of my friends is going out with this guy, and I'm friends with both of them. I don't want to get to close to her as not to provoke him, but me distancing myself from her, I think I might be very slowly losing her friendship. What is too far? What is too few? It's really awkward being around them at the same time. I...just...it's...hard...well....help.
Next topic: Emulators. OMFG. I LOVE THESE THINGS!!!! Can't get enough of them! I downloaded the N64 and GBA emulators, and I can't stop playing them. The first game I downloaded? Lylat Wars. I don't know what's up with the name, but it's the Australian version of Starfox 64. Something was wrong with the name...I don't know why,I just know it's my favrotie game of all time.
Well it's 3am. I've got some emulators to play to keep me awake. I'll lt you all go, and ponder my thoughts, apply them, do whatever your mind does. And your quote for the night comes from my second favourite song by the cast of GLEE.
"Keep holding on, cause you know we'll make it through."
