And the workload?
...dear goodness. Each methods instrument I have to practice for around a half hour/day. With 2 classes, that's one hour total. Flute lessons are 6 hours/week. I don't even have piano figured out yet. Theory is going to take a buttload of time. IS is never ever friendly with assignments. And for psych of the exceptional child, I have to read a 30+ page chapter for every single class AND do a learning log for each chapter AND prepare a 30-45 minute presentation AND do field experience AND write a 2-3 page paper on that AND prepare for an essay-form final. Did I mention the fact that as a music major I have to attend 12 recitals/term? They're generally over an hour long each. There are 14 weeks in a term. They really don't pick up until later on as people have to prepare for them.
So pretty much I am never, ever going to be around. At all. Not on AIM. Probably not to chat idly on the phone. I don't know how often this will be updated once life kicks in.
And guess what?
Judging by the workloads of some third year music ed majors, it's only going to get worse.
A LOT worse.
Now I need to go read my chapter...and do the learning log...and think about this term one day at a time, because all at once kind of makes me hyperventilate...
