3:47 pm	UN World Food Programme I'm sure some of you have seen this already, but there's a vocabulary game called FreeRice. For every word you define correctly, the sponsors donate 10 grains of rice to the UN World Food Programme, to help fight hunger. About 25,000 people die daily from hunger or hunger-related causes worldwide, most of them children. Click. Play. Feed. And thanks. [For reference, I've read that an average serving of rice is about 900 grains. So think about that as you play. You can probably donate two or three servings on your breaks at work or during your lunch hour every day, if you put your mind to it... and you'll be improving your brainpower at the same time.] Current Mood: determined (Comment on this)

9:27 pm	So odd... ...but it seems that no matter how tired I am or how badly I feel, I almost always improve once I've spent some quality time playing music. It is difficult, frustrating, exasperating and humbling, yes... but there is no other balm for my soul such as this.

6:06 pm	Well, that was... *bleargh* I won't say it was the worst audition of my life. I suppose it's possible I could do worse in the future, after all. It was not my best performance. It wasn't even particularly good. On the plus side, the conductor is very nice, and had the decency to not laugh me out of his office. So there's that. I'll find out if and where I've been placed the night of the 20th, at our first rehearsal. Current Mood: deflated (Comment on this)

8:24 pm	Motivation Or rather, my lack of it. I've got a music theory placement test staring at me that I need to complete, and I can't make myself do it. I have audition music on my stand that needs to be practiced, and I can't make myself work on it. WTF is wrong with me, anyhow? I have an audition Thursday afternoon. Thursday. Afternoon. Which is not very long from now. And yet... here I sit. *tries to shake self out of stupor* (Icon because it is motherfrakkin' hot here, even at this hour.) Current Mood: apathetic (Comment on this)

9:04 pm	My goodness... LJ's servers are simply ROBUST this evening. I'm already in a bad mood. I've been sort of practicing for an hour, and my hands and my brain are out of sync. It's the most bizarre thing. Happens every now and then, but it's... not entirely unlike being drunk, and everything seems to be happening a half-beat too quickly to process. Except I'm sober, which makes it not so much fun. Think I'll forget the Bach for a while and practice some scales. At least it doesn't matter so much if those sound nice. Also, my audition music, which was supposed to have been mailed last Monday at the latest, has still not arrived. *stab* Current Mood: annoyed (Comment on this)
