this old me
spring break was such a great time..it's depressing to have to get back to the grindstone...but in a way...welcome. time for work again. after a period of rest, to put your time to some use is almost enjoyable. almost.
it'll be good to get on a regular schedule of practice again...i have suffered in that regard in the last couple of weeks. my average was about...maybe an hour a day? that's awful. i'm starting work in the music library too this week.
jim's coming up today..gerry's hearing or whatever..i get to listen though..that will be nice.
i'm still debating..i don't know what to do with my life. there is the joy my trumpet gives me, and my thirst to become outstanding in the area of jazz. then there is my desire to be among the best cellists. i don't know anymore. i wish i could ask my faithful readership for help, but in the end, i make the decision...

you're only 18. you don't have to decide what to do with your life yet. i just read an article about "twixters" for sociology and it was really interesting, about all the "kids" who take five or six years to graduate, then jump from job to job trying to decide what they're going to do. i wouldn't do it, but it doesn't seem like such a terrible thing.
Like mandi said, you have plenty of time to choose. I've learned that college is as much learning what you want to learn as it is learning. I might go into Asian Studies. What if I don't even go to Asia? Was it all for loss? Nay! I can still use it in my life.
Take a couple courses. Sniff around. You'll find that which beats most harmoniously with your heart soon enough. And whatever you do, I'll still enjoy listening to it :).
