Well, I THOUGHT I ALMOST passed the piano exam, and then they asked me to do chord progressions in C#... which has five sharps....insanely hard... disaster. And a f*&%ing fellow grad student picked the C# key. I was so angry, so angry!!! I thought I would get to pick which key myself... that's what they have done every other time with the test, except apparently this semester it has changed. I get to take it again later... I am so ready to be done with this nonsense.
Mmm.... came home, watched the end of BBC "bleak house", and cried.
(((J))) yeah, the beard ages him a lot!! your story about H's halloween mustache reminds me of two of my cello friends who are dating each other. The guy wanted to be Magnum PI for halloween so he shaved off his beard and left he mustache. He looked so ... weird that his girlfriend convinced him to shave it all off and then he started his beard over from scratch... Do not worry, you are not rambling, your thought process mirrors mine exactly!!
tomorrow I fly home to my parents' for thanksgiving. I am so glad to have a break!!!!
