my plan is all falling into place. bwah ha ha haaa
I'm happy, I just ran my entire (minus a couple) set for my music exam. Without the others I have approx 17.55 minutes. So with the others my time will go up to about hmm... 24.35 minutes, then if you count farting around the stage and talking to the examiners, and tuning... we are up around the 30 minute zone! WOO HOO!!!
Now my only problem is a 2nd Trumpeter. Hamish is going to Europe/America/Asia for a couple of months, so we need to replace him. Greg suggested Luke, who came along to rehearsal today and well... hmmm...
I think I might grab Rosie if Luke doesn't work out. Rosie is my hero. She hasn't done anything super that I've noticed. But I just like calling her my hero. Plus in stage band she ads a little bit of sanity to the trombone section, and she talks to Jono, which I tend not to do in the wee hours of the morning. So that was my little dedication to Rosie. Which is quite odd as I think I have barely said 3 words to her. Nice girl though. Smart girl. Very smart girl.
I got my braces almost off the other day, but then they weren't straight enough so the evil woman put these whack rubber things on instead of the metal. So my teeth are caining me. Although I think that either my trombone or my music teacher has special powers as before my lesson the other day my teeth were so painful, then I got there and the pain almost disappeared that is until I left the music school when the pain just hit me. Sure, there could be a logical reason like the pressure of my mouthpiece was soothing, and then due to all the pressure, afterwards there was extreme pain. But I think I would prefer to think that Mr Bain is magical.
I'm getting really excited about Schoolies, yet sad at the same time because I won't be spending it with Salona and Megan. However, I'm going to have an awesome time in Byron and Nimbin. It's going to be awesome.
Then at New Years I'm really considering going to the Falls Festival. I wasn't orginally but then I found out that the Dandy Warhols are going to be there!!! AHHH!!! I love Courtney Taylor-Taylor!!! Actually, I love al of them. That are just so damn awesome! mmm...
Plus the Vasco Era will be there, they are pretty awesome. Except on the
falls festival website they spelt their name wrong. Also there that are totally worth seeing are the Beautiful Girls and the Shins. mmm... it shal be good if I do end up going. man, I'm already pumped... damn.
Now I must go and transpose yet even more music. ugh. sibelius must die.
- Em xoxo
p.s can someone please remind me that I have a rehearsal with Ms Belkin next thursday at 2pm!!!
