Anywhere Is
Music: Enya, Loreena Mckennitt, Phillip Presswood, Celine Dion
The past few weeks have flown by incredibly fast, and I really like that - I feel that time is precious, and make my decisions accordingly. Right now, I SHOULD be working on reeds or practicing, but I won't get anything done...grrr...
Allan's first chamber orchestra concert @ UCLA was great - they had a really good program, and it was nice to see Jeffrey Kahane again and finally meet Kimaree. I'm intriguied by the Hawaii Music Festival, however, if I ever go, I'm going to need to hit the gym (more on this subject a little later) and get a decent body. The program for the evening was:
Mozart: "Overture to La clemenza di Tito"
Bolcom: "Orphée-Serenade"
Tchaikovsky: "Variations on a Rococo Theme" (Alisa Weilerstein, cello - this girl, who just graduated from college was AMAZING...there's no other way to put it - you had to be there to hear it. She also played a Bach cello piece that I can't remember for her encore...)
Mozart: "Gigue in G major & Minuet in D major" (solo piano - these were mixed w/ the next piece, w/ Jeffrey conducting and playing.)
Tchaikovsky: "Suite No. 4 in G major ('Mozartiana')"
I also drove south of Santa Clarita for the first time on Friday night, as Christopher and I went to the French Market in West Hollywood to celebrate my getting a job @ Toys 'R Us. It was a fun evening and I'm glad I have him as a friend and confidant. We also had lunch today, which was a good time.
Regarding the gym/fitness issue, I have lost some weight, though I'm 10 pounds more than where I want to be. I've decided that I'm going to give pilates a try, so I need to talk to Lori and see what they're all about and see what happens. If I could set some time aside (she said only 3 times a week for 20 minutes each) and keep a steady routine, along w/ eating healthily and staying active, things should be great. Even though I don't want to get into the dating/relationship/sex world, I still think that having a good body and being a health nut is important.
As I mentioned above, I NOW HAVE A JOB!!!! I'm hired as seasonal help @ Toys 'R Us in Stevenson Ranch, and I start on Monday @ 9. I'm excited, but hope I don't screw up - I'm horrible @ math as we all know, and I start training on cash register...I also need to get some more white collared shirts (regular or polo), which isn't to my liking because I look FAT in white...oh well, such as life.
So, I guess life is pretty okay right now. I just need to make sure I always prioritize and get this damn sophomore slump shit figured out and taken care of. I hate to admit it, but it does scare me a little to have these doubts and shit that keep invading my mind...music is the only thing I can do better than anything else, and I don't want to end up not knowing what to do w/ my life, as a jack of traits and master of none...
