Wasting precious time

It's 12:47AM, and I'm supposed to be studying. As you can tell, I'm obviously not. 

Before I recap about my last couple of days which have been pretty good, I'm going to tell you about the next 24 hours.  I have 2 finals tomorrow morning: the written portion of music theory and music industry.  Theory I am not worried about. I've been studying the same subject since midterms, so I think I'm in a good place for my final.  Music Industry I  pretty much screwed. The final is cumulative. I don't really remember anything from the 1st half of the semester, I gave up on reading for the class, and I stopped paying attention. As you can tell, I'm kind of screwed. I'm going to study, but I think none of the information is going to sink in. These are my thoughts that I plan on telling my parents after I fail the class: "I don't care. I have no interest in passing a class for a major I had no interest in taking. Thank you for jeopardizing my large academic scholarship on a major you wanted me to take instead of allowing me to do what I like and know a hell of a lot more about. Thanks." I know it's kind of childish to blame someone else who isn't me, but I feel like I am right in this. Sounds self-centered, but you have to be a little self-centered when you are thinking about your future.  Ok, that's my mini venting session, for now.

Now for my recap. Friday, we saw Little Shop of Horrors. It was great. Shout out to Kaleb for a great performance. Saturday, I went to DHS's Neat n' Sweet with Monique. Lots o' fun. Sunday was Christmas at Loyola. It was kind of long, but beautiful music was made, even if some of it was classical. Ok. now to the big stuff. Monday was the beginning of finals week. Monday I had my World Religions "final" and my Music Theory musicianship final. All I had to do for World Religions was present my website.  Apparently my website was pretty good since, it was voted 2nd best in the class. 1st place got an automatic 110 A for their grade on the website. I'm surprised so many people liked it. Musicianship final was nerve-racking. I had some mess-ups, but I think I did ok. One of the teachers really like me, and they were being fairly lenient with the grading, so I have heard. So, Monday was a pretty good day. Tuesday was a big day for me. Tuesday was my voice juries. Voice juries are like an audition. You go in, you sing, and you leave. The only exception is that you are graded on your performance. That was my main worry. I got my grade a couple hours after I sang. I got 3 A's and 2 B+'s which I believe average to an A, so I'm psyched!

After my finals are done tomorrow, I think I'm going to throw caring into the air, let loose, and get a little drunk. I have nothing to do on Thursday, and Friday all I have is my piano final, which isn't going to be very hard at all (from what I've heard). Now we have hit the present.It is 1:15AM, and I'm not closer to being more intelligible in the field of music industry. Awesome. I might give up in like an hour or 2 and try to sleep. I'm tired. Sleep is good. Sleep is VERY good. 

This is Lisa Brescia singing the beautiful song called "And There It Is" from Scott Alan's new CD called KEYS at a CD signing held at a Barnes & Nobles in New York City. Go buy it! It's amazing.


BAM!
