Another Day, Another Destiny

Good stuff happens in threes I hope. Two friends of mine get girlfriends and I hope I'm the third. I've been singing like hell lately. I'm gonna sing that solo the best I've ever sang before, then proceed to have my voice die on me. I think I'm going to work on being a basso profondo. If I'm able to hit a low Bb before my voice has matured completely then I should be able to extend that range to a F below the F; I think? I'll take a low A. That would be really cool. I'd never use it but who cares.

I really need to work on my piano playing. I can't sight read worth a shit. I can only sight read by notes not chords. And what crazy motherf'er writes a song where the entire accompaniment plays a GMaj chord and the basses come in on a F natural.

I realized today that I love Blues and Jazz. I was just in a mood that those two styles blended with. Oh well, I've overstayed my welcome on here.

Seriously

Ok so basketball doesn't suck for me. I love it. I see stuff happening like 3 seconds ahead of when it really is happening. I weightlifted Monday, then ran in conditioning. I'm actually in okay shape. It's because of my summer in the gym.

On a different note I love music. I just figured out a few warm-ups the chorus does. I can play them on the piano now. I'm singing a solo at a concert a week and 2 days away. I'm so screwed. Oh I'm gonna put my song I did for Kubik's poetry project on here. People have been asking me all week if I was going to sing it and I did.

So there happens to be this one girl that I like. That's all I'm going to say. Three people in this world knows who it is and I trust that they wouldn't tell anyone and I'm not saying anything to anyone so don't ask.

So far this week has been good so I'm gonna stop jabbering on. Semper Fidelis for the Marines and Carpe Diem for any dead poets lying around (I love Latin for some reason).

What a Week

Once again I say what a week. Spending three hours with the devil-lady of choral music, first-time that the VHS Band does a real marching show, and pissing off a girl's boyfriend for fun. So, Mrs Clark (the devil-lady) actually was impressed with the chorus. I think Mr Riddle has completely lost all sanity. He expects both the band and chorus to learn an entire song from Les Miserables in 2 weeks. Oh, I got to warm up the chorus, which was good. Means I might get to actually direct a song soon. Basketball is starting up, so that means less time to do anything. I'll be really tired from conditioning, but it'll get me in shape. I'm still laughing thinking about pissing off that girl's boyfriend. I seriously don't think he knows who I am and how big I really am. So anyway, school tomorrow (boo), but then basketball (yay?). I hope my ankle doesn't bother me (yeah, right, like that's gonna happen). So until next time, goodbye.
