GAH A WEEK

Its been a whole week since my last post. I swear I have good reason for not keeping as on top of it as I usually am. I've been sick with the cold/cough thing thats going around Ottawa. As a result, I have almost nothing new to say as I've been sitting in my apt. being anti social for fear of infecting the music dept further. SO, apart from going to my very few classes, and watching a TONNE of TV and movies, I havent anything to say.

Though, last night was interesting. Of course take the word interesting with a grain of salt as its coming from a guy who has been held up in his apt. for a day or two. Interesting to me has become a strong gust of wind! My internet died last night, and after an hour on the phone with Bell, they decided it would need tending to by a tech. So they sent one out this morning, and he fixed it. See. Not all that interesting. But when you have no motivation to do anything but watch movies online, having no internet sucks! Oh, she's back now and running better than ever!

I think i'm going to make spaghetti sauce tonight to have for the week.

I have an obscene amount of reading to do for wednesday, but in all reality it will only take a few hours, and because I have so little class, I'm likely to not even look at it till tomorrow. Its still taking a lot to get used to grad school scheduling. I have work to do no doubt, but none of it is ever practical, and I have a whole week do to it each time because all my classes are once a week-ers. I still keep thinking the shit will hit the fan in the coming days, but it never does. I guess I'm still in my undergrad mentality of having way more plates spinning at a given time, and waiting for them all to fall. Again, I worry about speaking prematurely, but I remember even in the first week of first year, being VERY stressed and even looking at that in second year I thought it was funny that I was stressed for that small amount of work. Maybe I've become desensitized to stress and workloads. Who knows. Time will tell.

I like my tuesday nights because I get to sit backstage while Dr. Woods does her non music lecture and plays sweet chant music and I can just read and do work. I like that me just being backstage reading counts as 3 of my 10 hours a week as a TA.

Anyway, I'm feeling a bit better today, so I hope I have better stories for you all by the next post!!

Hope youre all well!!!
