Geekiness, and The Day

Welp, Wednesday is over. It was a good day, I guess. Finalized the schedule, added another class. So, I'll have to get up at 8 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, but I can sleep in Tuesday and Thursday. That will be cool. Exactly 4 weeks from right now, as I write this, I will be in a theater watching Star Wars Episode III. I am quite excited, but disappointed that I cannot attend the big Star Wars Celebration that is starting today in Indianapolis. Oh well. I can make use of my exclusive online content as a member of Hyperspace, and keep up to date on everything. In compensation, I might have a Star Wars film festival on Friday, I don't know. So, today, I witnessed two people engaging in activity I would consider geeky. Brad and Luke, probably the two best trombone players here at Luther, were talking about trombone players in the major symphonic orchestras. And they were talking about them as one might talk about a baseball player, their stats, career highlights, technicality, crap like that. I was like, "Wow, that is pretty geeky." Isn't it strange how our ideas of geekiness vary so differently? Maybe not geekiness, just general behavior. If Brad and Luke heard me talk about Star Wars, they would think me a geek. I want equal time. I have a rather uneventful weekend planned. I have a string quartet concert to go to Saturday night, and I have a jazz concert on Sunday. Other than that, not much going on. I should make a concerted effort to practice and study medieval history though. The new bass trombone should be coming either today or Friday, so that is exciting. It will be nice to be able to play my band parts to their fullest. And, Phil and I can create explosions of sound. I like Phil, he's a good guy. I hope I can befriend him a little more over the tour, and leading up to it. It figures I finally some cool people just as they graduate. Oh well, whatever. So, I have a new romantic interest, kind of. She doesn't go to this college though. I don't know, it's sort of a half romantic prospect. There is a potential that this girl and I could be spending a lot of time together in the summer, and I've gotten some positive vibes from her, so you know. Plus, she thinks it's cool that I have a Jedi robe, and am a Star Wars geek. Not that that's really important in the grand scheme of things, but I couldn't have a relationship with a person who didn't dig that. Mainly though, she's an awesome woman of God. So, we'll see how things play out. Gosh, me and God. I could write a long time on that. Let's just say, I am in the midst of a trial of complacency. Anyways, it was cheese manicotti night in the caf, so that was exciting. We had a trombone choir concert tonight. It went alright. I never seem to play my best in trombone choir. I'm usually spot on in jazz and concert band. I guess with the all the practice I will have to invest as a music double major, I can help improve that. I hope I can do this double major thing, it would be cool. I'm still waiting for my Expos jersey in the mail. It shipped like, two weeks ago, so it should be here any day. I did buy it from a guy in Canada, so it had to cross the border, but it's been about 12 business days, and Canada Post is supposed to take around 10-14 business days. I hope it comes soon. Anyways, I'm out. MTFBWY.
