I got a new cello yesterday! ^_^ Oh it's just so pretty... and the sound! The sound of it is just -beautiful-. I'm keeping this cello for a definate three to six years... I'm hoping maybe twenty.
And, to go along with the cello, Mom bought a new bow ( Which, is the best, the hairs don't break as easily as the other one.. *.* and it's lighter... *.*!! ), AND! A hard case for the cello.
*squeak* A hard case.. A HARD case!! ^_^!! I'm just so estatic about it.
The store's ordering two different colored cases, one silver and one black. Right now I have a green one as a loaner for the moment, but I can tell I'm having a hard time deciding if I want silver or black.. =
But either way, I'll be putting stickers over it n'stuff.
Maybe black so I can get purple and silver and blue things to 'design' it with.
^_^;; Okay okay, I'll stop.
Well. Tomorrow is Solo and Ensemble's All-State competition.
I've mentioned it before, but it's where everyone that participated in Solo and Ensemble, that's in high school, that got a 1, a superior rating, can have the chance, if they want, to go to All State in Carson City. What you do is play your piece there and if the judges mark you as a superior again, you get a spiffy medal-thing.
I guess the medal would be worth it. I don't know.. the only medal I got was when I was... seven, maybe, and I read so many books over the summer that I was a 'super reader.' o_O;
And a bowling trophy... Ah-hah, it's small and pathetic. But it has my name on it and it says, that on 1995, I had an average of 79 for the Tiny Tots Spring.
O_o;
Oh, I might have some ice skating badge.. thing. But yeah.
This medal would be something I'd just cherish like the reading medal, the bowling trophy, and the ice skating badges.
The only thing wrong with going to Carson City is, my school is evil.
We're taking a bus there, while many others are flying.
A bus!! To Carson City from Vegas takes 8 to 9 hours.
On a bus.
Something moving constantly for nine hours.
*shudder, growl, mutter*
But I guess it won't be all bad. I'll be gone starting in the morning of Wednesday, then around 4:00 a.m. Friday.
I might force myself to go to school, if I'm happy and awake enough.
What REALLY sucks, yes, besides the bus, is that my piano accompianist.
Psh, Jesus. My school is the most unorganized.
I find this accompianist-teacher-thing at school for only 20 dollars a song, while the others are 50. And so I pay him, give him the music. ( Actually, I don't know who he is YET. I gave the money and music to my orchestra teacher and she gave it to him. )
So yeah, that was like, what, almost a month and a half ago??
Do you think we ( Him and I ) have ever PRACTICED this piece together? Even ONCE?
Hell no. Not until today. He's supposedly taking me for my last period ( Oh joy. ) to practice with me.
That's not enough time to practice.
One time?? Please. They ask us, and ask us, and ask us for the money and music and do you think, that after we give them that, they can do their part and practice with us?
No.
It just makes me mad. I had Angie as my accompianist for the Solo/Ensemble here in Vegas, but she can't go to the Carson City one because she received a very high 2. Which was amazing because when I listened to the poor thing, it was wonderful. Stupid judges.
No, but anyway. She and I practiced together, written things in, slowed parts down, editted the song to a style that we were comfortable with almost about five months before the Solo/Ensemble was here.
I get one day with this guy.
I think I saw him once at the Les Miserables play. He was walking around the halls and his name tag said his name. If I remember right, he looked like some snoody guy. He was looking down his nose each time he turned around.
..
Ugh. I hope this turns out well, I'm dealing with BotM ( Blood of the Moon, I think only two people know what that is..? @_@; Blah, n'yeah. ) and I can't deal with anything too stressful.. or I'll die, I tell ya. I'll DIE.
@_@;; Okay, Mom's still not home. It's almost seven and I need to go to school to get homework for the next week when I'm gone.
*sigh*
Yeah, okay. I love you all very much and if I don't see you tonight, then I won't see you until Friday night.
*much hugs to everyone*
P.S., e-mail me. I need everyone's e-mail addresses in my 'spiff_rk@hotmail.com' e-mail, so I can save them, remember them, and then send all of you mail from my school e-mail.. since everything else but stupid sites are restricted. Like Diaryland. ;-;'
Yeah, okay, love, hugs, and Ja!!
