slightly negative.

But oh well. It hasn't been the...calmest of evenings.
I just got back from practicing.
I have to know my minor natural/harmonic AND melodic scales, allll of them, **extended** for Wednesday. It took me forty five minutes to *kind of* maybe slightly decently play them. It's so confusing!!! The minor scale is three half steps down from the major. So the way I thought of it way back when (when I first learned them in the eighth grade) was you have B major. Three half steps down is G sharp. So, it's G sharp minor, basically the B major played starting and stopping on a G sharp. Pretty easy. I was never corrected. As things were never very technical. Now I'm expected to play them extended...up to really high B, down to low C, and back up to the starting note. Well...that's why that G sharp minor that I so lovingly latched on to [and doesn't really exist] must now become G flat minor because in a sharp key, you'd go up to a b natural while in a flat key you'd go up to a b flat...and in a sharp key it's down to the c sharp, while in the flat key it would be down to the c flat...it changes everything...so now the minor scale for B is G *flat*, and I have to figure out everything in flat instead of sharp...which is REALLY confusing. And it happens to multiple minors. I managed to fake my way through it last week as they weren't extended. But now I'm screwed. Woo hoo! I'll have to write everything out and figure it out and spend a really really long time practicing before Wed morning when I have my lesson...and a calc test in the same day...oh will this be overly exciting. :P
What's been decent today...
Dinner in the Konditerai. And they had my cheesey bread and raspberry yogurt, I got a cinnamon steamer...and a cinnamon scone... :)
IT'S GETTING CLOSER TO SATURDAY!!! WOO!!
:D
Band was awesome. I loved it. We worked on Punchinello, which is a really hard piece, and it all came together really really well today :D and it was exciting.
My mom got me a texting plan (finally) as I'd been texting people on and off since...November?...without knowing that I didn't have a plan (oops...) so now that's happier.
Over the weekend, while doing origami, I found the pattern thinger for paper airplanes that works really well...Chelsea and Melissa had an idea. That I should make a ridicuously massive amount of them, write "Am I bugging you yet?" on their wings, and spend an afternoon throwing them at "the problem" (as I'm referred to now on facebook). LOL. I thought it was pretty funny.
Oh, I found out (through facebook again) that "the problem" is transferring next year. So no awkward running into her in chem classes all the time. Yay!
Annnd I should find Chelsea so I'm not studying for calc in here with the TV on and an annoyance in their reclining chair. Or travel to the lounge. Something...
