No lesson today. We went to the lesson and my teacher never came, nor answered her cell phone. At least we got the gig book.
There. Happy, Mom?

Coolness.
When I was doing music theory today, the coolest thing ever happened to me:
I was used as a punishment. One of the kids was being really annoying, talking, and other stuff. Not doing his work at all. Mrs. Murray (The theory teacher and head of the orchestra) told him that "Since you aren't doing your work, and am instead just talking, you are going to sit with Ian. Ian does not talk to you. He just sits there and does his work." I learned from my Dad well. He was there for about a half an hour, and I said not a word to him. Not one. He was drawing on the page, and when he did do some work, he did it out loud. Hard to focus when he is counting rhythm exersizes and you a trying do minor scales. Still, I thought it was awesome to be used as a punishment. I think my reputation in the group there actually went up, because the second cello came to want to sit with me.

Wow.
I haven't posted in a while, huh. Well, here is how the rest of my week is looking:
June 13: I am FINALLY in a quartet, but... I am the only guy in it. I meet them, get the gig book, and (?) practice it for the first time.
June 14: I have a recital with my teacher, her other student, her boyfriend and his students.
