Today has been pretty productive though I still feel discouraged. I just wasn't made to be motivated in this frigid existence. I rode my bike into town today and that was invigorating and made me feel alive but I still feel bogged down by everything. Today I worked on a recording for Alex -- he wrote a song for Stacy and her son Ser (sp?) -- and it is almost finished. I'm going to give this recording to Christine who, in turn, will give it to Stacy in time for her birthday this Saturday.
I had my first tutoring session today and it went well. My student's focus is in Music Theory -- a pretty fundamental level -- so I tested the waters to see where I was at too. It all seemed to go pretty well. Most of her questions were surrounding scale notation and identification and scale degree concerns. Most of the time spent was a run through key signatures, staff notation, and devices that could help her memorize some of the order of sharps and flats.
Tonight should be a lot of fun -- Caitlin and I are going to vegan cooking (happens every Tuesday night and Friday afternoon) and I don't have a whole lot of homework although I should really try to make a lot of headway on some projects that will be relevant in the near future.
Here goes nothin.
