Enrichment

So, do any of you guys know what the facebook is? It's like this internet yearbook thing, with a buttload of colleges on it. And you can look at people's profiles, and figure out their interests, and a bunch of stuff like that. And now you can add photos. Like, albums. I put two up. One of just photos of my life, and another of epic photographs. It's interesting, to see other people's photos as well. People have so many different experiences, it's amazing. People have such different backgrounds, it's easy to see why people grow up to be so different. I wish I had more photos of like, me and my friends. And I have a lot, but not on my computer. So, yeah. I saw Kathleen at lunch, then lost her in the crowd, so I didn't sit by her. It was disappointing, because I was convinced I was actually going to be able to talk with her. Nope, I was wrong. I saw her again at dinner, she was sitting with the guy I think she likes. Oh well, whatever. I mean, what can you do, really? Just be yourself, and not worry about things out of your control. Man she is a gorgeous girl though, in more ways than just looks. I ate dinner with Benjamin tonight, which was night. I then proceeded to go to the Symphony Orchestra concert. It was very good. I'm not going to lie, I wish I was in it. But the most worthy trombonists have the spots, and I respect that. I can't play the bass trombone near as good as Benjamin. Afterwards, we played some duets together in the music building, then talked with Dr. Smith for a while, who was there late doing some work. I feel so blessed to have Dr. Smith as my teacher. He is so knowledgeable about the trombone, and he's so easy to get along with. We have a good rapport, and that just helps me learn better. The title of this post has to deal with the fact that I am gaining a lot of personal enrichment from my trombone lately. Like, I don't go to practice just to practice. I actually want to go practice, because I want to make music, because it brings me personal fulfillment to do so. I'm really thinking of only taking 3 classes next semester, and just spending a lot of time playing trombone and making music. Benjamin and I want to do a general recital together, maybe playing a duet or do a trio with Kelsey. Who knows. It's a very musically exciting time for me right now. I'm excited to be able to play for the opera this spring too. I've never played anything with strings before. Anyways, so that's the day. It was a fairly successful one, if I do say so myself. More failures with the ladies, but that's pretty typical, so we won't count that. I had an obscene comment made to me regarding this intensely religiouis girl who one of my friends wants to woo. Like, an obscene comment about the girl towards me. Basically the comment said this girl wanted to jump on me. It was odd, because my friend is all about this girl, and she's intensely religious. So, right, that made no sense. On that note, hope everyone is well.
