i don't want to do homework!! it's not fair!! nooooo!!!

i just played oboe for a while. although it's not the oboe i'd been playing for my years at egan. it's jeff's old oboe. and man does it suck!! it's horrible!! do you EVER grease the cork on it, charlie? i don't know how you even put it together! well, the good news is, at least i have an oboe to fool around on from time to time, and i can still play. i need some oboe music though. maybe i can make my mom buy me the 'les miserables' oboe book for christmas...les mis has some REALLY pretty oboe parts in it.

on a random note, okay people, piano is NOT THAT HARD!! we must have spent half an hour on about 5 pages that basically taught you how to keep your hands in C position and finger little melodies. then we worked on *gasp* a C major chord!! and then we learned a C7 chord (i think that's what it was anyway). and then we practiced going from one to the other. i'm not sure how people managed to not get that after about 5 minutes of fiddling around, but we were to spend like 10 minutes working on 4 pages of simple melodies using only those 2 chords underneath. i got bored sooo quickly (seeing as last time we were in the piano room, i taught myself all that and went on a few more pages) so while everyone was supposed to be working on pages 14-19, i was off somewhere arond page 27. he was like 'now just practice those pages guys, no one has shown me that they're ready to move on yet.' haha yeah. whatever. maybe i'm gifted at piano or something, but it wasn't that difficult.

grrr. my dad's throwing a stupid housewarming party for himself (even though he's been in his new appartment since the middle of summer) this friday and i have to go. fun...except not. he lives in dublin (not ireland, like by pleasenton) and it takes like 45 minutes to get there. so for this stupid little party thing where all i'll get to do is shake hands with random people and have them ask about my life (which they'll most likely know ALL about from my dad) i have to miss the Girls 21 performance. grrrr... and i'll have to wake up at a reasonable time because i have to be back at school by 8:45 to practice for the Fall Finale and the competition.

soo...what is this Fall Finale, you ask? COME!! give us your money! see me perform! I'd give you a flier but i don't feel like it, and this is easier.

1) "at least i have an oboe to fool around on from time to time" that was wrong!
2) lol, i lost my flier for the F.F. I'm an idiot... oh well... god knows i'll have like 20 family members come... so it doesn't matter... :) I LOVE VLADIMIR! *breaks down crying*

no, it would have been wrong if i had said 'at least i have an oboe to fool around WITH from time to time' but i said 'on', meaning that i PLAY it. the oboe, that is. i don't play WITH the oboe. i just play the oboe. it's different. really.

and i'm sorry about vlad. really. but he can't play tenor drums for shit. i walk right by him in blue saphire and he's like nowhere near the beat. but nevertheless, i am sorry. think of justin. or nic. they're sexier.
