Frustration

So restless and frustrated right now....I came home from school with the full intent of finally getting my recording for YAHS done today, but after 2 hours of practicing, recording, and pulling out my hair, I only have one full recording of all three pieces.......and the second and third piece has quite a few mistakes...DARN PEDAL MISTAKES.
After i finally recorded the pieces one through (we have to play all three in a row in one sitting...memorized), i went on the website to take a closer look at rules and repertoire. I read up on the past winners, and was so depressed. The winners of 2008 were all around my age at the time...so they'll either be 17 or 18 now....at least i won't have to compete with them for college....or perhaps i will have too. idk. But i read that at least three of them had studied with Judy Loman, and won all these competitions (mostly AHS Nationals). wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I feel like i'm running after them, trying to chase all their footsteps.

to celebrate spring...so beautiful this year. :D

Delicacy

There's not enough slack,

in the bridge to hold,

my heavy tears and heavy words.

It trembles, it shakes,

I'm sorry,

but the phrases and delicacies

have all but gone out the window

and all that is left

are my tears.

Give me a moment,

I cannot stop the flow

of my imploring hands.

Confiding

To all those other dedicated bloggers, I applaud you. I do not know how you can write a blog post at least once every two days. Because not a lot of people read my blog, I don't really see the point of updating it constantly.

My life is not interesting enough anyways.

All i can say is that...April is busy! Blisters and rehearsals!

yes....

Oh now i will attempt to insert a little Life in my blog.

So at the last Classical Connections Concert for PSYO (including beast piano playing and much flattering banter between the guest artist and the conductor), i was flipping through my program to make myself stay awake...I saw this feature on the Shen Wei Dance Arts....the director was the main choreographer for the Beijing Summer Olympics opening ceremony. So, being the fobby fob fob I am, i showed my mommy the magazine and hinted that it would be a delicious birthday present to both of us!

So my mom bought cheap $11 tickets....so i'm guessing we'll be at least 100 feet above and away from the stage tomorrow.

BUT we shall bring our binoculars (in order to ogle at dancers wearing nude spandex) and we will execute our smooth move of sneaking-down-to-$200 seaets-after-the-lights-dim.

It will be a good brief 3 hour hiatus from anchor.

GAH.

spring blehh

spring break is not what i hoped it to be. i just end up getting distracted and wasting my life on meaningless things. (youtubing, playing with my iTouch...etc.)

There's so much gnarly stuff i must do.

the weather is beautiful, but i'm spending my time inside....wasting it.
