My internet connection's being all iffy, and it has been this way since I got here. Some days it hates new pages, and on others it goes quicker than a greased eel. Today is an in-between day. It goes willingly enough most of the time, but sometimes it balks. Today is a sort-of break for me. My orchestra had no rehearsal this morning, so I slept in for the first time in two weeks. Of course, breaking a routine isn't always a good thing. I got up and went to the bathroom first thing, and when I came back my door wouldn't open. This wouldn't have been a problem if I had gotten up with my roommate, who did have orchestra rehearsal. So I asked one of my neighbors down the hall to lend my their phone, and discussed flute embouchere (mouth shape) with her while waiting for a counselor (not an RA, this is a summer camp, after all) to come and unlock my door, which cost me a dollar. Don't you love it?
Yesterday night was our second concert, and by many accounts it went really well. There was a lot of energy in the room that night. Afterward, I hitched a ride with my roommate in her teachers car because it was raining. Rain here was supposed to be plentiful, but we've barely had three days of it during my stay. Denielle's teacher, Uwana (I don't know the spelling, she's Romanian), invited us all to her studio to eat cookies. She had just gotten a large box of them from another student's teacher. They were extremely good. I took some back here, and they are serving as breakfast right now.
I seem to be going out with friends here with surprising regularity. The night before last I went and had milkshakes with Rachel and Kaila. I think everyone here is enjoying having other people so close by, as most of us are out of the dorms at home. I'm glad that I get to do this, at last. I wanted to in Vienna, but the right people weren't there.
Before I go, a small update on the knitting: It's reached five inches long, and it sheds like crazy, perhaps I should get a better yarn for this project...I'd love to go check out the yarn stores around here.
Until next time,
Greeny
