In mourning. For those turkeys who lost their lives recently. Also, in mourning for those who lost their lives in the shootings in Mumbai. It is certainly worrying. I hope all this turmoil ends soon. It was certainly worrying while Akash was there. I am so glad he’s home safe and sound. Yeah. This thanksgiving has been one of the more eventful. We were headed to my dad’s, but my family came in a day late on the plane due to a heart attack on the plane. (Not one of my family thankfully.) So, they were finally here. Yesterday was sort of a chill out day, but it was still relatively crazy. We drove down, which required me to be sociable with those I was driving since we only had 2 drivers and 2 cars. Quite crazy, it will be good to drive away by myself tomorrow. Loud music, hot coffee. Mmmmm yes. So yeah…. we had our big dinner this evening. I didn’t even eat that much, but I was still full to bursting. And I feel a bit sick. Yeah, heavy food doesn’t go down so well with me. I’m more of a salad and buns kind of girl. Although avocados could be perceived as heavy. :/ Eh. You get what I mean. I spent my day reading, texting, and practicing. I’m playing the Meditation and Processional by Bloch. I enjoy the Meditation, but the Processional isn’t so great after you hear the 1st piece. Oh well. I can’t like everything I play. Kreutzer and octave scales have been killing my hand. It seriously needs to stretch out or I’ll be dying by the end of my career. I’m trying not to play it too much though or I will get a stress injury like before. That is not fun. Looking at music school has been interesting. I keep going back and forth in what I want to do. Performance…teaching…performance…teaching. AH!! I don’t know what to do… I feel like I’m living someone else’s dream. I will see. Performance sounds so appealing. I really want to do conducting. But you can’t do a whole degree as an undergrad. So, maybe as my masters? I don’t know!!! So difficult to know. *dies*
