Slower Days

I seem to recall that in other semesters, this last couple weeks was the most frantic part. But for some reason this year it is not so. It seems like half my classes are getting canceled every other day, or they're winding down extremely leisurely. To me this semester has been about two seconds long, so I'm still in the "middle of semester" mentality. I feel like I just got here, but the first step is already almost over. I guess that's what happens when you're living the fast life like me.

So I finally got my hands on some sheet music for a song I actually like (but no one else does, for some reason). I absolutely refuse to pay for sheet music, because on top of the cost of the actual music, there's the cost of printing, which is 10c per page (absolute robbery). So usually I get it for free somewhere, but lately I've been having a hard time finding music that is both free and to my liking. Anyway, the point of all that is to say that I found some music and I've been practicing it a bit and it'll probably be video-ready soonish. Even though I probably won't actually film a video until after Thanksgiving break. I'm not too good with this video thing at the moment.

Tonight I am going to an impromptu Thanksgiving dinner put on by one of the 2nd floor residents, which means that instead of turkey, potatoes, and gravy, we're having microwavable pizza rolls, cookies, and maybe a rotisserie chicken (but only if I bring it, which will depend greatly on how much it costs. I have no idea how much a rotisserie chicken is supposed to cost, do you?). But the spirit of Thanksgiving cheer will be there, so I guess the food part won't really matter.

Tomorrow I'm going to be home later than usual because I have to go to the middle school. I've had to start going on Fridays as well as Monday and Wednesday because I suddenly realized that I wasn't going often enough to get in my thirty hours of observation before the semester ends. You may not know this, but thirty hours in Middle School Time is about three hundred in Normal People (i.e. me) Time. As it is, I'm going to be there through finals week. I am obviously not very good at forethought.

Anyway, see you tomorrow. Peace.
