I’m
not sure exactly what I expected when I decided to write a blog, but it
certainly wasn’t this. I’m pretty sure I thought that no one would actually
read my blog (besides the Senator, because I asked him to proof-read the first
post…) but you, dear readers, have defied my expectations! The total page views
have climbed over 100, and I can’t thank you enough! In fact, I'm kind of freaking out about it in the best possible way!!! Hopefully you liked what
you read enough to stay tuned as I continue to update.
Speaking
of updates, this is one, in case you weren’t aware. I started working on this
post this weekend and was expecting to have it up by the end of Sunday. But
then, as always, life got in the way. I realized that between the 23rd and the
27th, which is next week, I have to turn in two research papers, a memorized
presentation in Italian complete with an impressive Powerpoint, a movie report,
two tests, and a final Theory project. I came to the sad realization that I
needed to finish my research papers slightly more than I needed to write a blog
post in between my rehearsals and concerts. However, do not despair, dear
readers! I wasn’t about to miss my fortnight deadline 2 posts in!
So I’m currently typing this in
between classes because I accidentally left my Music History research notes at
home and there aren’t any practice rooms open, which is the norm during lunch
hours. I’m typing frantically and I keep misspelling words like “people” but I
AM getting this blog post written in my non-spare time! The next few blog posts
may be typed in a similar harried fashion, but I hope they are of enough
quality, or at least entertainment, to keep you interested in what I have to
say!
