Alas, Poor Spring Break, I Knew Thee Well!

Well it seems like the semester has gotten back into motion in no time flat after break. Personally my break did not contain as much practice as I originally desired. I can't completely blame it but I think a moderate amount of it could have to do with a kind of dreariness hanging over my hose after the passing of my Grandma the Wednesday night before Spring Break. I felt really honored when a lot of my family members asked me to sing at the funeral service, so I worked with a few of them and we picked out a hymn for me and I worked on it here and there throughout the week. My mom made sure that practiced a least a little every day, now I just have to see if she can use this motivation of me for the rest of the things I have to practice. Anyways, as for this week it definitely took me a bit to get back into the swing of things when it comes to practicing and things like that, and it was really hard to stay inside with such an amazing week of weather. I think its time we get a piano that we can use outside to practice with (yes I realize the problems that would occur with this idea, but it doesn't mean I want it to happen any less :P). Now that things are finally on the move again and I can get on a moving with everything, I really do want to finish this semester strong and I know that I can with such amazing faculty and a God that is above everything. So its time to take hold of the present and set everything in my path ablaze.

  1. Klima, there are so many things about you that I appreciate. One, you are honest---I know that it must have been difficult for you to practice in light of all the other life stresses you were dealt. Two, your work ethic has improved greatly---I, as well as other students and teachers, can tell you have practiced. Your technique has improved greatly, and we are finally seeing a glimpse of the voice that will be! Three, you are hilarious and don't take yourself too seriously. An important lesson in life. BRAVO! Keep up the great work, Eric. You are a good example for all.
