Points, plans, and other miscellena

There is more to say today. A few points I missed earlier.
1.) Today was our solo recital. I played two hours ago, I didn't enjoy my own performance, and I tried to tape it but the person in charge of doing so pushed the wrong button. Other people liked it, apparently. I may have done a few things better than normal, but otherwise it was a scary mess of missed notes.
2.) I have bought batteries and a tape recorder in order to hear myself objectively, this was a suggestion of Barbara, the wonder moter mouth teacher.
3.) I have three papers due on Monday, and the next recital is next Thursday. It will be a chamber recital, I am involved in about four pieces.
4.) I finished my monotonous pencil bag! This is way cool, it just needs a zipper and I'm completely done.
5.) I started another project, a multicolored (I can't get away from it) apron (what? I like useful objects).
6.) My flatmates are going to Bratislava and Prague tomorrow, I am not. This is good for reason number 3, and the fact of everything I want to do these last weeks.


Things I want to do before I leave Vienna:
Visit one more church (St. Michaels, Vienna Boys Choir, Scottish Church, or Votive Church). Which one do ya'll think I should do?
Go to the Prater (I may do this tonight)
Photograph the sights I see everyday that are amazing (I go to school right off a main tourist throughfare, three blocks away from Stephansdome, the same distance from the City Opera, and a bit further from the former palace of the Habsburgs), perhaps I should include the stunning amount of soccer fans all dressed in the same colors.
Photograph the Natural History Museum's displays.
Visit the Vienna Woods.
Go out of the country, even if just for a day (any suggestions?)
Dress up really nice and go to a really good restaurant alone or with someone I like (I just made that one up, but I like it).
Buy yarn (the knitblog influence, Must. Obey. The. Harlot =), perhaps local yarn.
Buy souvenirs for my family and friends.
Send the postcards I wrote my first two weeks here, I will not waste those stamps.

As you can see, there is a lot. I must go plan it out now, and practice for my lesson tomorrow, wish me more luck.
