Frostlings

It has been too long!

Although I really dislike people talking about the weather, I'm going to talk about the weather.

It was been CRAZY CRAY! I will never get use to walking outside and being like "Oh... it's snowing *shrugs*" My first reaction is always like, "wow, it's snowing, if I was at home school would be canceled. *sigh*"



Cadence is the new master of outside time, she does NOT mess around. More often than not Cadence and I are at the door freezing while we wait for Wesley to hurry the hell up. Too bad he likes playing in the snow and looking like a black dog version of the abominable snowman.


The most exciting thing that has happened to me this month was definitely seeing ECCO (East Coast Chamber Orchestra) perform. They are so amazing, and it was the first time since I left home that I was inspired by a concert. Seeing Melissa was great too, she is such a great person besides being a fantastic player. It makes me realize that the musicians with egos/attitudes really have no excuse for their bad personalities; there are plenty of amazing players that are equally amazing people.


Seeing this concert also made me miss Four Seasons A LOT. I never took it for granted, because I knew this wasn't offered other places nor would I get the personal attention but I really need to see more concerts that are inspiring. Too many times lately I've gone to concerts that I didn't hate, but honestly didn't enjoy. While other being are raving over it, I'm just like "is there something wrong with me right now?"

Of course some of these people prefer the HAGAN quartet. (Yes, I said HAGAN) over ALL OTHER STRING QUARTETS. Which is delusional. Or prefer Emerson, which is just sad.

I wish there was something else going on in my life besides school, music, sadness over my playing, homesickness, missing family and Leo, keeping my skin somewhat hydrated. But there isn't, which means I need to find a hobby.

But first, I need to find a JOB! Ughs.
