I'm meant to be working now. Really meant to be working now. I did almost nothing yesterday work wise (apart from three Barefacts articles - total around 1,250 words!) so I've really got to pull my socks up. I don't want to be having another crazy all nighter like I had so many times last year. I promised I'd be good this year! Plus I've got so many concerts and rehearsals this week (supposedly reading week) that I've not got much time beyong tonight.
And, of course, on to important things, I still need to get myself a costume for Drag and Fetish Night on Friday! :o)
Today I had a day long coaching session with the Gemini Ensemble, which wasn't too bad (well, it kinda improved as the day wore on) and our quartet ended up playing in the final concert, which we really didn't expect. We played a groovy piece called "String Boogie" - very jazzy and cool, and totally unlike anything else that was being played. I think the tutors looked down on it a little, cos it wasn't "proper" Classical music, but we wanted to do something different to everyone else. It was quite funny, because some people from other ensembles had been making a bit of a thing about the fact we were playing jazz and hadn't actually rehearsed until today - but we still got into the concert - hah! ;o)
Adam came to the concert, which was nice - he claims he's now "cultured"! It's always funny to show people Studio 1, when they've never seen it before, cos they don't expect quite such a huge room to be in an academic building. I think he enjoyed it though....
Right.... now it really is work time!
