Do Re Mi Fa Sol @#*$&#()#)

I remember weeks before school started, how excited I was. Rob and I discussed how excited we were over and over. He asked me one night how many credits I was attempting at, the answer, 14.

I had a discussion with my guitar teacher today. I opened with, " I came to a new realization". This new realization is that I take on too much that I can handle. Also, due to my slow mechanics, it takes me a while to grasp anything new. It can be anything: ideas, procedures and comprehending, I feel as though I am being taken advantage of this, but thats another story.
There is this class that requires you not have information spoon fed to you. Understandable. That class is called Aural Composition. It is all about developing your ear, voice, and really applies music theory. Constant practice and working out what you do not have developed takes years, I guess.
It has been a struggle. I am back to my point of taking on too much at once. My guitar teacher explained it how it works in the USA(he is British, that is where he was trained), they force it down your throat.
Think about it, you try and drink a gallon of whole milk, your stomach will reject it. That is how it works in this system. That is what is happening, I am not absorbing, because there is not enough much time in the day and due dates everywhere. It is always a mad dash to "get the work done". I am not learning anything. Well, I can't really say that, but I can be two times better.

So here is the outcome...dropping Aural Comp and taking that over again. Of course, some of you are gonna say, "that will put you further behind", and that is what I can't care about anymore. That thought makes it worse. I am taking less credits each semester, so I can stay focused.

Man...I wish there was a place that delivered burritos.
