Wowza!

Dude...

Too bad no one else was in the car with me while driving to Libby on Friday.

My brain kept whipping out the funniest stuff and I kept thinking "oh man!  what a great FB status!"  Wtf!  I never think that!  Anyway, I had so many goofy thoughts I thought I'd just put them all on here

(I think I was just excited to be going home)

"Thank God, I'm a country boy"..... wait... HA!

"Oh man, the best thing about coming home to Montana...I get to drive faster!! Screw Washington speed limits that happen every 10 feet!"

"Ok, I'm just gonna say it.  I feel super cool when I'm wearing a "supa fly" outfit and I order a coffee and carry it with me..." haha biggest dork ever!

"When people explain a hairstyle and they say "to finish up, just secure with a bobby pin.  I think to myself 'ya right... when you say secure with a bobby pin you really mean "put a pin in your hair and you'll spend 50 times trying to make it stay!"  There is no such thing as a "secure bobby pin."

Anyway, this a totally random post.  There were more, but ya, don't remember

Hope you enjoyed! =)

The Closing Premier of Winter Quarter

'Ello!

I haven't really had anything interesting or profound to write about lately... oh ya... I forgot I have been as busy as a woodpecker in a petrified forest...

The end of the quarter has been extremely busy, especially these last two weeks, there have been wind ensemble concerts, jazz concerts, recitals, composer concerts, trumpet solo night, jazz combos, choir concerts.... phew...

Here is what I've been up to for the past month or two

~Trumpet Solo Night-Performed a classic concereto for trumpet on E-flat trumpet
~Recorded music for EWU's Theater Departement's production of Antony and Cleopatra
~Performed at the MENC (Music Educators National Conference) in the Jazz Band
~Played with the Orchestra for the first time since I've been at Eastern
~Took the WEST-B Test
~Performed with the Brass Quinet

Upcoming:

~Upper Division Jury... =z eeeeeek (we have what are called juries in the music department which are basically finals for the instrument you are studying.  Upper Division Jury is basically a "audition" to sign up for higher registration number in lessons.  It's basically a progress test for your playing.)
~Auditions for the Concereto Competition- a competition where you audition on a memorized piece.  If you win, you get to perform your piece with the Orchestra at the Spring Orchestra Concert!!
~English final- who gives a shit... I just want that over with

Dead week and finals week have felt like molasses.  It has been soooooooooooo slow.  I just can't wait be done, feel stress free and go home for a week to see my family, my sister play some softball, see my pets and come home to Montana!

=)

I wanna see this guy at some point in my lifetime!

Coolest Thing Ever!
