Okay, so I'm a total dork-head.
I was sitting at my computer tonight thinking, "Man, I hate music theory! I know it makes me a better musician, but I just want to sing, I don't want to--" and then it hit me. I CAN COMPOSE STUFF!!!!! O.o I had totally forgotten that I gave up composing music because I didn't understand how to match up a left hand melody/chord/arpeggio to the right hand melody that I had written. I have lots of pages of half-composed melodies that I gave up on because I couldn't figure out how to give it an accompaniment. I can do that now! I know how a lot of the (simple!) chords and stuff work... So I tried throwing something together in Finale, and by golly it WORKED! o.O I was like... holy bubbleh! I can compose again! My music theory knowledge is... useful. Not just in context of a few years from now, but like... applicable. Right now! *glee!* ![]() Last edited by Tessar : 12-03-2007 at 12:58 AM. |

had a great weekend on a social insect-conference in tartu, estonia. i had two good friends with me, and every night we went out sledging when the rest of the gang sat in the hotel bar - great way to spend time.
![]() a well-needed holiday. ![]()

I just got a pet-application at Face book 2 days ago and he is soooo cute! He's a tiger and off course I called him Aeran, allthough he can't compete with a sabertooth tiger off course.
![]() I'm also very happy with my music chirstmas tree app, but unfortunately my friends won't accept the darn thing, so I can't hang them in my tree and find a good song for them. ![]() I am too happy. Especially since I'm finally getting on with my essay which is due Wednesday... Should work a little harder and I may actually be able to finish it on time!!! ![]() ![]()

sometimes it's very amusing to see how people react on something they find different.. and how quickly rumours spread. i was at a conference in estonia over the weekend. we stayed at a hotel, and naturally they put me in the same room as some random girl and not with my very good friend who was also there - because he's a guy. he shared his room with another friend of ours, though, so i ended up sleeping there anyway. and my, did we get looks from the others on the conference. *laughs* silly people..

I'd take not. The more I'm around the general public, the more anti-social I become. I'll be truly happy if one day I can be by myself and underwater for a looooong time. ![]()

I visited New York and nearly went out of my mind. Its only redeeming feature is its museums.

O yeah, I can live with living somewhere quite! I live in the city now, but as soon as I'm done with my study I'm out of here.

I KNOW! Guys are such dorks about sharing a bed.
![]() There were three of us in a room at the singing thing, and one guy was being shy about wanting to share a bed, saying that 'someone would have to sleep on the floor'. Thank God the other guy didn't care ![]() I just wanted to say, "Okay, you're straight, so I'm not exactly worried about you grabbing me. I keep my hands to me, so you have nothing to worry about. WHY THE PROBLEM!?" |

When I sleep over at my friends place, we usually sleep in the same bed. It's huge, but I still have to fight with her and her dog over space
