So...small life update since I haven't been here for a while.

It's been a tumultuous two weeks. Last Sunday I broke up with my girlfriend of 7 years. It was a mutual thing, and we're still on good terms, but I'm still kinda bummed about it. Spent the whole week in an awful depressed state.

But things are looking up! A friend of mine just released an album that I was featured on with my violin! You can check it out at winterwayfarer.bandcamp.com

In addition to that, I got an offer for a position in a local professional orchestra starting next week! It'll get me a lot of extra money each month that I can use to claw my way out of student debt and whatnot while I'm still in school. So my financial situation is slowly improving.

Not a whole lot to report other than that. See you all in like 2 months when I decide to post again.

Sorry about your gf bro. Congratulations on the job though. Being a fellow college student, I can totally relate to the financial difficulty lol.
Hope things go well for you.

I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to try to search for a new job. The thing is that my job feels way too physical for me (lifting a lot of heavy packages all the time) and also quite stressful (everything is on a time limit), and lastly it's an evening job, which means that I can't do activities with friends, and also fucks up my day a bit (when I'm awake and asleep. Hopefully I'll be able to find a better job, I think that will be a lot better for me -give me more energy and lift up my life a bit.

Just got done with All-State auditions. Because someone forgot their music at the high school, we had to turn around to find it. When we made it the audition site, I prepared myself over the course of 30 minutes before I went to my audition. I managed to play my scales, etudes, and solo perfectly in the practice room, but got nervous and fumbled a bit at my actual audition. After waiting nearly 2 1/2 hours, I saw that no alto saxophones were to be recalled, and later found out I was not one of 2 alto saxophones going to All-State.

I'm actually very relieved at this point. With musical practice, set construction and homework, practicing for All-State required me to either skip lunch or get a pass to miss a class once a day. I also began to slip in College Algebra & Trigonometry and College Chemistry; even though I thought I understood the material, the tests proved otherwise. Despite being able to practice mock auditions in front of my talented peers with ease, and being told I was going to make it, I wasn't prepared for the tense atmosphere of the audition room.

There's always next year, which means one more year of experience and preparation. Not only that, I might still be able to make NWIBA Honor Band in two weeks, and earn 1st chair, like last year.
