Seeing as how it's been almost a month since my last post and I have 35 minutes before I start teaching, I thought I'd write a little blog post. As I just said, I'm teaching flute lessons to a girl from my elementary school. She's in 8th grade and I've taught her before. That's my summer job! I also get to start my new shampoo (baking soda!) tomorrow morning, as I just ran out of my old shampoo this morning. I am pretty excited for this prospect; I've been hording up by baking soda for about 3 weeks now and finally get to use it!
Last night my parents and I met up with a guy from my dad's choir and we went to a little bar downtown and then went to the St Martin's Chamber Choir concert. While my parents didn't like the bar that much, I thought the atmosphere was great. Not quite as cheery as pubs in England, but it was getting there. The concert was divine. They sang from behind us because the organ at the front was out of commission. My favorite was a Howells mass composed for Christ Chapel in Oxford. It made me want to go to graduate school at Oxford all over again.
Today I realized that I have made quite a few mistakes with my past relationships. One example is the guy I hated for three years, then realized that if I hadn't been so enthralled with him in the first place, he would have been a really cool guy to know. He's working in Paris this summer and would be a great contact to have if I ever decided to go back there. Oh well. Live and learn.
I suppose I should eat breakfast so I don't keel over with all the flute playing I'll be doing soon.
