one of those days

I don't know if I woke up on the wrong side of the bed or what, but I have been having such a 'blah' day today. Almost like I am merely going through the motions of life. Woke up, took a shower, went to school to warm up and practice for about 2 hours, wind ensemble for another 2 hours, break, piano literature for an hour, break till 7 o' clock ensemble. Go home, take a shower go to sleep. I have to remember to stay out of my head and in the present. Wind Ensemble was very good today, the horn section sounded really good and I think we are finally beginning to get outside of ourselves with our tone and intonation. If I can think in retrospect if I am glad I came to ECU, I would have to say yes. I can honestly say, that I have grown so much as a person, a player, and Lord knows ECU has humbled me in so many aspects. When the weather is like this (gloomy) I am always put in a terribly down states which sometimes overwhelms me. Like always, I shake it off though.

The real world outside of the music building is reminding me of its existence once more. Rent is due, need to get an oil change, pay my assistant, and pay the light bill/phone bill. Everything always hits at the same time.

Off to Live,
