Man, it has been a while since I've updated this thing (not that anyone actually reads the damn thing anything). I'm still getting settled here at DSU (anyone wondering, just look up deltastate.edu). Being a music major is a seriously tough job, especially when they're only paying you $1500 a year. But the intrinsic rewards are pretty fantastic. For one, I feel I'm growing not only on trombone, but piano too. Still hate it, but not as much anymore. I'm finding myself able to play things with more ease now. I know I wouldn't have been able to do that months ago; months ago there was too much on my mind that wasn't music. Now, music is all that should be on my mind.

That's the life of a music major for ya- music, and nothing but. My trombone professor is a beast on his horn, and the other players aren't too far behind. Then there's me, doing my best trying to keep up. But eh, that's when I do my best, when others say it can't be done. So many people thought I'd be back home by now, but I'd have to say... I'm finding I love the delta, blood suckers and all.
