Oh What A Beautiful Morning
From the minute I woke up this morning, I could tell that it was going to be a great day. The sun was shining, birds were chirping, and the only clouds in the sky were the white wispy ones. If I was a person who sang in the shower, you better believe I would have today.
My 8 AM class was no trouble at all. I just coasted through it, not expending too much energy or brain power. My 9 AM was the same way. Dr. Robertson was nice again today, which is a blessing in itself. My 10 AM class was quite interesting. Even though it is a psychology class, from what we've been talking about you would think it was a study of illegal drugs. Of course, we're looking at how they affect the brain and the psyche.
Lunch was decent, of course I was really saving up for the dinner tonight. My 12 PM English class as usual wasn't anything difficult. Simply a formality. Horn studio at 1 PM was like normal. Brent played all of Strauss 1, and I was informed that I would be playing the first movement for an upcoming concert. It's so nice to be know these things ahead of time!
Global at 2 was fine. I actually enjoy studying musical forms. Of course, I guess that's part of why I'm a music major. After that, it wasn't long until my first lesson.
So, I took my first step into becoming a real music educator today. I actually gave a french horn lesson to another student. It was very interesting. It did confirm my belief that I'm meant to be a higher level director. I don't think I can handle too many beginning students.
After the lesson, it was time for the Teaching Fellows Executive Council meeting. The meeting itself was fine, it was what came after the meeting that was really neat. We had dinner with the Chancellor. That's right, tonight I dined with the Chancellor of Appalachian State University! Needless to say it was a wonderful meal. I even got to play the piano for him. I got back from the dinner in time to see Who's Line.
So today was actually a good day. Although, it's supposed to start snowing soon. I guess we'll see.
May God keep you (and me) this and every night.
He walks with thee, that angel kind,And gently whispers,"Be resigned:Bear up; bear on, the end shall tell The dear Lord ordereth all things well!"
