Absolute bliss . . .
The happiness of blogging once again. You don't know how nice it was to go on the blogger website again and fill out my username and password . . . back to blogging! I was banned for a little while *sheepish grin* and it's funny how much I missed blogging! You don't really realize how much you're addicted and love blogging until you can't do it fora whole week! But enough remembering my unhappy days of not blogging . . .
Today's my Mom's birthday! 37th birthday, to be exact. We spent most of the day cleaning, sadly. Eowyn and her family are coming for the weekend, so we thought we'd clean the house. Joy of joys. Or not. At least I got my room clean it isn't funny.
All my practicing music wise is going great, thankfully. I'm a bit nervous for my Gr.9 exam though. I have my List A basically memorized. My fugue rocks. *vain me coming through* List B is awesome, except for the development of the song, which I need to work on. It has this really difficult, running passage in the left hand, and organ like melody on the top, all the notes sluring together. It's the best part of the whole song, but of course the hardest. My lIst B is a Haydn, btw. List C, I play it really nice, and I know it and all, but I have to memorize it yet. It's a Mendelssohn Song Without Words, and it's absolutely gorgeous. I've said that before too, but I can't say it enough. It's makes me cry, seriously.
My List D (which I supplemented for a Gr.10 List E0 is going pretty well too. I just have to finish memorizing it.
And I won't talk about my technique. It's going OK, but you know. I wish I could learn to love it somehow.
Oh, I found this totally awesome website, www.sheetmusicarchive.com, and what you can do on the website is download andprint of your computer piano works. It's all Peter's edition, and other really good editions, and it prints of really nice. It doesn't even have the website on the bottom of all the sheets. It looks like normal music. It's all piano music, but you can also print of, and I'm not kidding, Beethoven's symphonies. There's every composer you could imagine, well, almost. And yeah, it's really cool! You can only download and print of two per day though. But it was an amazing find. It must be legal then. I've heard there's this rule that any nusic before 1950 can be photocopied. But you never know. That whole mess of a fight drives you crazy.
Anyways, I'd better run along.
Hope you all have an amazing weekend, with fun sleepovers *looks at Summer, Cho and Shimmer* and that you guys will miss me badly. I'm so sad and sorry and miserable that I can't be there!
