Lately...

So its about time for a new post... lets see, instead of covering everything that has happened since that spring I'll just jump to things that I've done in the last two weeks. I made lasagna and it was awesome! I was pretty scared of how it would turn out, but it ended up being great! and since there are only two of us the one pan lasted about three days! what I really want to get good at is making bread. I'm alright at making a standard loaf, but I want to be able to make some crazy stuff like cheese bread and zucchini bread. These don't seem that hard, but for some reason they intimidate me.
What else... I had an audition that I am actually happy about. Last week I had my 'annual' audition on my french horn. For these auditions you have to play a prepared piece, scales and sight reading, and you have to play it for the Band Officer, the Band Master, the Enlisted Conductor and any other staff members that want to sit in and listen. For this audition I played the second movement of Morceau De Concert by Saint Saens. Its really slow and melodic, which is great because I'm horrible at playing fast and rhythmic. I was pretty nervous, but played well. I got the score that I wanted. Its not the best, but It was what I was working for. Now I can build on that and get even better. Bryce has his audition this next week and I know he'll be awesome, he always is. :D
This weekend is the Columbus Day 96. (we don't have to be back at work until Wednesday!) Tomorrow, Columbus Day, me and Bryce are going to hike to Hiji Falls. Its our two year anniversary of when Bryce and I got engaged. It'll be fun to revisit. :)
This coming week should be interesting. The band is beginning to work on our field show for the marching festival in Tokyo next month. We're playing some crazy music and I'm sure the sets are going to be just as crazy. I hope we and pull it off; my fingers are crossed.
