Home away from home

Today was BUSY. I went to my first class: Sight Singing. That class isn't going to be easy, with all the quizzes, exams, projects, etc. Then I had an hour break until I took my keyboarding "test" to see where I would be placed. I tested out of the first quarter of keyboarding and he said I could place out of the second quarter as well--but I have to play for the course, even if I test out of it--so I think I'll take the second quarter just to make sure I'm up to speed on things. After that I found a computer lab in the building. The computers were mac and it was the first time I'd ever used them before--I couldn't figure out how to maximize the webpage to fit the whole screen. Oh well. I called Tyler and he met me for a lunch date at Wendy's. Then I had a meeting for choir members. I'm in the "call backs" for the collegiate choir & chamber choir. The director gave us 2 pages of short pieces to learn (5-10 measures each) and I will go & perform them on friday in his office. Some are kind of tricky and rhythm is difficult for me. I hope I will get them learned quite well by friday. I spent an hour on them today...My new voice teacher is a man. I was kind of surprised by this--since there are 3 female voice teachers and 1 male and I was placed with him. I only hope that he will help me achieve the most and help my voice reach its potential. My last class of the day was Opera (from 4pm-6pm). I have to audition in there on friday to determine which opera scene I will be involved in. It's lonely not knowing ANYONE in my classes, but I hope to make friends quickly. I bought my books: $350. I came home and watched a movie with Tyler & Anna. Now he's putting her to bed. I hope to get to bed soon, myself!
