bliss

Today, I conducted the wind ensemble for our last exam in conducting. A huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders and I can feel my spine crack as I slowly straighten it out. Oh bliss.... I cannot wait for next quarter. I can concentrate on writing now! I am taking Piano Ensemble as well so that I can get back into playing again. I was a bit nervous today when I conducted. The hands shook a little. (jazz hands!) But it wasn't as bad as it usually is. I think it is mostly due to the codeine in the cough syrup that I am taking. Maybe being sick was actually a blessing in disguise then?

Phew, what a quarter. I will be drinking a lot next Friday. A lot.
