Hello Again!

I'm baaack.

I love how ominous certain statments are. Onto the news: Chamber group has formed, we are meeting for the first time today. We're a trio, and we're playing Beethoven. (On a related note, I will be having a recital at the end of the semester.) I've started knitting again: a white washcloth for my face, it's so pretty. I've practiced violin somewhat today, a momentous thing in the formation of proper practicing habits.
I may have a new violin student, which will bring my total up to...three! At least I can't negatively impact a large percent of the violin students in town. And I'm officially set to graduate, I've been approved and all that. So, assuming I don't get a D or F in any of my courses, I'm walking in May. All these things make me feel much happier today than I did a week ago.

Today is ridiculously busy, I have maybe five hours "free" out of the entire day. The rest is scheduled tight.

I should go finish practicing, see ya.

Niceness

I'm in a posting kind of mood today.

I met with the trio (chamber group), we decided upon and copied music, and also dealt with rehearsal times. I think we will all work well together. No horribly difficult personalities to deal with. I'm extremely relieved, and feel quite happy about that.

On another strange but true note, I have a new student. He is a senior here who has been playing violin for almost a year. He's pretty nice, and didn't run away screaming after our lesson, so I think it will work out. The nerves I had before we met! I hope that this feeling goes away as I improve/gain experience as a teacher. Yeesh, and to top it all off: I got a call from a lady who wants a violin/cello duo at her wedding. The "How much do you charge?" question always messes with me. So I hammered it out after that call. I'm pretty sure that my rates are reasonable, judging by how guilty I do or do not feel about charging what I do.

I've got to go to Orchestra now,
