Well, your music classes at least sound more interesting than anything my school has to offer. We basically just study classical music, learn to play a few pieces, and analyse music. All the boring stuff in my opinion.

Well, aren't you in middle school or high school? My high school's music program was terrible as well. But I went to a music conservatory for undergrad, so there were a lot more varied and specialized music classes there obviously.

British high school, equivalent to American middle school. But it must've been really cool there, getting to vary what music classes you went for. I don't get to do any classes apart from the standard lot until next year.

Oh, yeah, I really enjoyed it, though I think I prefer being where I am now, which is a good music program within a larger university. I mean, my undergrad was technically a part of Johns Hopkins University and we could take classes at the main campus (and I often did), but it was a much looser connection.

Anyway I'm thinking I should get a SoundCloud account and post recordings of the pieces where I have them being played by actual people (as opposed to Sibelius-generated MIDI messes). With the piece I mentioned above, Winter Shadows, I have a really great recording of the first movement (which is regular flute - piccolo and alto flute are second and third movements, which I don't have recorded yet, looking for an enterprising flautist to do it as soon as I fix some things about those movements).

'Kay guys I have a SoundCloud now:

https://soundcloud.com/composerose

Uploaded two pieces already.
I'm listening to Cyberlament right now. It's really good, I'm impressed!

Thanks! I don't know if the dedication shows up but it was written in memory of two of my high school classmates who died during my freshman year of college. That's what the text is describing (which I wrote myself - that's why it's so, um, weird? Weird. Yeah).

Welcome, but oh, that's horrible ... I'm sorry to hear that. It's very sweet of you to compose a piece in remembrance of two of your classmates though, I think it's a lovely thing to do. And the text looks fine to me!

Haha yeah it's probably okay. There's just something awkward about an art song that uses words like "blog" and "Facebook."

But I wanted it to be how their online presence lives on and sort of serves as a virtual ghost, even though they're not here anymore. Hence the title, "Cyberlament."

Mine started on Friday, and preach it, sister!

I'm doing pretty good, still clogged with this cold though. How about you?

My spring break was two weeks ago. :-(

Anyway, I really want to go on Tumblr while waiting for people in my class to come back from coffee break, but I'm worried that some pornographic picture is going to show up on my dash the second someone walks in the room. Lol.

Sounds like a risk that you're just going to have to take.

And of course, I was 100% right.

I open my dash, and the FIRST thing I see is tits.

and not even hot ones

Omg I just saw the weirdest pastry on tumblr

for a second I thought that said "weirdest pasty"

Anyway, I think I'm going to play it safe and read some stuff about the Prop 8 trial. You know, so I can find out if I get to marry other ladies if I decide to move to one of those weirdo states where that's not a thing yet.

My spring break was two weeks ago like Monday. v_v My birthday's the day after tomorrow, so I'm just wondering how many of the albums off of my list I'm going to get.

I asked for a lot of albums. Freaking music obsession.
