Day 2

I'm not planning on keeping this everyday, i just happened to have a free moment 2 days in a row.
i have a feel for how my classes will be this semester now that i have gone to them all and i must say, i fairly relieved. i thought that because i sign up for a science credit of astronomy, that has a lab, i thought i would hate Wednesday but its really not that bad and actually kind of refreshing to have something on my schedule that i got to choose for myself.
I feel a lot better than yesterday. i haven't solved my problems but i feel a little more comfortable. during my break today i worked on English and the big thing at commerce is the study of literacy and its place in different societies and how this effects the members of said society. it is called ethnography. But...that was the only focus last semester too and quite frankly...i really don't care that much. and here's the funny part i have to keep a blog on a different site for the class. so...i am going to try to not let this one suffer.
this could give you an idea of how music is here at commerce. in my music theory 2 class this morning at 8 (its a class devoted to the construction and analysis of tonal music)the head of the music department (Dr. white) came in and told the voice majors that they need to move to a different section of music theory 2 with a different teacher because this class was too full. the class would be at what he thought was 2 and that is when i had astronomy. I raised my hand saying i was a vocal major but i had that class. his response was that music takes privilege over basic classes, that those were flexible and i could take astronomy another time or semester. but the truth is that most basics are full this late and that class is the only reason i am able to keep my scholarship and if i dropped it and could pick up anything else with that many hours then i wouldn't be able to pay for school. but i kept my mouth shut and I'm sure i could find something.
he came back a few minutes later and said that it was actually at 1...whew. but i have chamber choir (select group of singers, I'm one of 2 freshman and there are only 16 spots) i could quite chamber but id burn that bridge and the other thing is i really like being in chamber. so i decided that this would be a good time to go talk to Dr. white. I was a little scared because he is kind of intimidating to me (not so much to others though...gimmie a break, I'm shy.)
i sat in his secretary's office for like 30mins and i was running out of time to eat and if i didn't get conformation that i didn't need to change i was going to just go to the 1 o'clock class in case i wouldn't let me. i decided to go eat and then come back and talk to him later. i ate with a few fellow choir people that i only hang with during the day and came back.
coming back i realize that...i really had to pee (trust me there is a point) so i went to the bathroom at the music building right as i went to wash my hands guess who walks in...Dr. White. he walks up to the sink next to me to wash his hands before he went pee (haha, idk why but that's kinna funny to say so casually) and he says to me, "thank you for considering the change to your schedule, it really helps me out." (Damn)
"Oh, well i kind of needed to talk to you about that. you see i have chamber ending at 1:30 so i won't be able to sign up for that class"
"Oh yeah, well yes you need to stay in that class then. the reason why i directed the vocalists to change was because i figured that you all would jump at the chance to not have an 8 o'clock class"
"Yeah, the reason i wanted to talk to you about this is because i didn't want it to see like i was just blowing off what you said", I walked out and said thank you....the bathroom really is a mans office haha
well that's not all of my day today, at 6 i have to go to church because i am a scholarship singer and i will be there until 9:30 and its out in Greenville which is a 30 minute drive so i wont be back till 10ish...and that is how my Wednesday ends.

Right now i am trying to convince my verging on broke girlfriend that we need to eat at the caf (cafeteria) tonight even though the menu doesn't sound very appetizing, but we already paid for it, so it sounds really good to me...did i mention i was frugal?
