104 pages a day and I can do it! (But shit, tomorrow I have no time!)

Melissa's Clarinet Playing Adventures
7:30-Started practicing NCD sixteenth notes
7:40-Can play NCD sixteenth notes at 160--as eighth notes.
7:50-Can play NCD sixteenth notes at 160 (and as sixteenth notes) IF I play them 4 notes at a time, pause, next 4 notes, pause, etc.
8:00-practiced warmups
8:15-bits of other pieces practiced, sightreading from Geckler oboe book begins
8:25-chose a minor piece (without checking to see that it was minor) and liked it
8:25 to 9-sightread numerous other minor pieces, feeling very expressive, calm, and good.

It was a good evening. I realized that playing clarinet makes me REALLY calm and sightreading is very, very, very good. I think I'll do this more often.

yesterday was my birthday. it was fun. i got my permit in the morning and spent the rest of the day in the house hangin out. went drivin' 3 times- 1, jennifer; 2- matt; 3- mom and grandpa. then we went to Longhorn and got some steak. came home and got cake.... pretty good.

now- wyatt and robyn are way tired and yellin. robyn locked herself in a room. wyatt is screamin, crying, and hittin himself with a plastic baseball bat.

started off the day normally. then found taylors journal in which she has numerous things rittin about me... pretty mad about that. then matt came over and things got better.

we went to the mall... then to amc and saw without a paddle (it was good).... was gona go to olive garden but it was packed, drove around for half hour and i finally decided we should get pizza and eat it in the car in a parking lot. that was good. then we went bowling. i suck at it and i started gettin soo tired i could barely keep my eyes open.
today was a relly good day. its great wen u can spend a day with sum1 and feel so happy the entire time.

Melissa's Schedule!
Sooooo....after waiting in line to get my schedule changed this morning, Mrs. Passallo told me that it was Ms. Dawson's call because it was an 'administrative issue' whether or not to let me switch APs to MEHAP. I was rather scared. My only run-ins with Ms. Dawson have not been pretty. (Her: You cannot take Girls' Ensemble AND Marching Band! It's too much! Me: I know the teachers personally. I am taking the classes. *glare* and you all know the second...)

Came back as soon as we were dismissed for lunch praying that people would be nice even though it was THEIR lunch break and found Ms. Dawson. Asked her when to come back, but she changed my schedule for me right then because Mrs. Passallo had already talked to her. She was so nice! She put me in classes that were full (heehee) and valued Chorale over Algebra II honors (which is what I value too) so yeah. Here it is:

0 PE Band Soph
0 Marching Band (Ferrucci)
0 Girls' 21 (Shaull)
1 Algebra II (Robertson K)
2 European History AP (Wangness)
3 Chorale (Shaull)
4 PE 1,2,3,4Q (Phillips)
5 French III (Youatt)
6 World Lit H (Bonnano)
7 Chemistry (Babb)
8 Concert Choir (Shaull)

So there you have it!

Getting coffee (well, frappecino for me) with Yahya later tonight -- should be fun. (Edit at 8:52-Or not. Il ne m'a pas telephonee. Je ne suis pas tres triste, et j'espere qu'il n'est pas un manteur.)

Marching Band performance of music and marching (but no drill) tomorrow at 2 at LAHS, then pool party and bbq. Come if you want!

Oh my good Lord God. There are 17-21 people coming to the church pool party thing at my house this sunday. (I'd say 'drop in if you want' but it's a church thing and it'd be weird and people would get mad at me...) That's a lot of people!

CLARINET PRIDE!
DoktorKwack: The clarinet section kicks some fat rear though.

Yes, yes we do. GO CLARINETS!

If only I could figure out how to play mine...

Possible new schedules...
The only problems would be that these classes are full and there's that whole AP contract thing, BUT:

Reasons why Melissa should not be punished for taking MEHAP instead of History of Art AP:
*I'm not transferring out of the class because it was too hard.
*I'm switching into ANOTHER AP, so how is this making my life any easier?
*I would have stayed in History of Art AP had it have worked out with my other classes!

So....here are the revised schedules:

0 Marching Band/Girls' 21
1 Algebra II H (Evans)
2 Chemistry (Paige)
3 Chorale (Shaull)
4 MEHAP (Wangsness)
5 French III (Youatt)
6 World Literature Honors (Bonnano)
7 PE (Phillips)

0 Marching Band/Girls' 21
1 Algebra II H
2 MEHAP
3 Chorale
4 Jazz Dance (Oliver)
5 French III
6 World Lit. H
7 Chemistry (Babb)

My schedule is so screwed!!
So not sure why they sent out the schedules in the mail, but whatever. Mine is so fucked up it's not even funny. I'm freaking out, even though they set dates for schedule changes. So anyway, here's how my schedule looks so far.

0 PE Band Soph (this just means that I get a quarter of PE credits for doing Marching Band)
0 Marching Band (Ferrucci)
1 History of Art AP (Wangsness)
3 French III (Youatt)
5 Adv Jazz Dance (Oliver)
6 World Lit H (Bonnano)
7 Chemistry (Babb)
8 Concert Choir (Shaull)

There are so many things wrong this. 1) I do not have a math class. 2) I do not have Chorale on there. 3) I didn't MAKE Advanced Jazz Dance, so I can't take the class. 4) Girls' 21 is not on there.

Besides that, I think that Chorale was 3rd period last year, meaning I can't take French III at the same time. There HAVE to be at least 2 French III classes because not that many people were 'reccomended' to take French II again and everone from Ms. W-somethingthatIdon'tknowhowtospell's class has to be taught by Mme Youatt.

OHMYGODDDDD!! This is all not good. Even though it'll be worked out, I don't know how the whole Chorale/French III thing is going to work out. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

(Actually, I might.)

Band Camp Day 1
It was so great to see everyone again! (Especially Christiana, Lisa, Sara, Gabi, and Alexandra!)

It was weird to re-learn everything... There were all rookies in my group except for Raissa so no one knew what they were doing. It was kind of cool to not be a freshman, but I really miss last year. The clarinet section was better. We have 2 freshman and one picked up on marching really quickly so that's cool.

Hrm. Seeing as I completely SUCK at playing clarinet and still don't have time for symphonic band in my schedule, I'm almost rethinking trying out for leadership staff next year. I don't think I'd deserve it. I marched better than I thought I would, but Joseph won the drilldown, so he really wins the talent contest. Hrm. Maybe I'll change my mind by the end of this year...

Oh, and I'm still screwed for the History of Art AP paper. HELP ME, ALI AND SARAH, OR I AM GOING TO DIEEEEEE!!!

Does anyone read this anymore? I haven't gotten comments in a while...
