Ah.. so my guitar professor just called me asking me why did I wanted to change to another teacher who's way better than him. I didn't tell him anything, I didn't want to let him down. But he found out.
He was kind of hipped. I think it was a matter of ego. Was he angered?
At least now I have (one of) the best professor. This guilt...
N sent me a video he made for the FADU and now I have create the music for the soundtrack, he also showed me the temp track and asked for something that sounds "electric, as well as epic (?), have you seen "Dead Man" with Johnny Depp? Well something like that (...)". I must start, first redo the tutorials. I have to make contacts.
"...When you are having problems interpreting a classical piece, just think of why you like popular music. It turns out that in popular music it does not matter if the singer is decent, because they will sing their lyrics with lots of meaning..."
Something the conservatoire principal said yesterday about music articulation.
Okay. One Speed can and ready to go.
Finished the impressionist composition, magnifique. Everyone claimed it was outstanding. I wonder what the professor said. I bet she didn't even open the SoundCloud link nor read the score.
Sketching lines... more sketching lines.
Ugh... such a hard week: make a short composition, this time a folk stub. I heavily dislike making folklore and other types of popular music... other than rock itself. Reunions for the presentation of History works. Harmonic instrument scores (not a problem, actually). Study another choral. Instrument. Review some other chorals for that dickhead. Bang my head against the wall.
Ugh... I got an 8 as a final note in one subject. I shouldn't have invited that guy to study.
L'Etranger. I need: to continue this novel; do the Harmony excercices, revise Music History, revise Kanji's, grammar, learn vocabulary, study Fundamentals.
Sighed the same, both. And now they're part of a rain far away.
A 9 in the final exam of instrument, I cannot be that sad. It's not a bad grade. After all, I took that test in advance, instead of doing it in December. Instrumentist and Composition license.
Tomorrow I'm going to start studying La Catedral, all movements. That's it.
Seriously, this song is kind of antique but awesome, I always heared it but never knew its name..
Final exams soon. Had the instrument one last friday, aced it with a 10. Now I'm studying History, that aaaassssshole we have for professor... luckily I got one graduated student to guide me.
Finished reading and doing all Sibelius modules. That software is awesome as it looks like.
Tomorrow I'm moving some desk I have upstair to install my own studio in the groundfloor.
The conservatoire's library was giving away music sheets and stuff, took some of them, although most of them were piano scores. I could only take one easy guitar method and a duo sheet... and many works of Chopin, Liszt and Schubert, piano of course.
Ugh... I sooo should have gone to the Harmonic Instrument class.
God of fucking dammits.
That asshole professor, such an inept, even a monkey could do his job. And even if the monkey had AIDS I would prefer the fucking monkey. Professor Chimp, PhD. Can he care less?
So I'm coursing all the subjects of both years, that principal wasn't such an ogre.
And that lad... always yelling, at least she shows interest.
Does it worth it? Why do I have the urge to take exams earlier? It's a four and four, eight-year career for a fucking licence, ffs.
Recorded myself playing "Natalia" in a classroom. Strings were detuned, although being halfstep up. I'd like to be in my room listening to indie music and reading some ebooks.
A traditional Yorkshire ballad, some say written in late XVII century.

Just came back from the spiritual retreat camp, my bones are restless. Only slept two to four hours per day. There are many things that I would like to say to you. But I don't know how. It's not cool having the same attitudes that as a preppy preteen. Prejudges.

I shouldn't have skipped meditation yesterday. What's wrong...
"Vals 3" by Antonio Lauro. Received Agustín Barrios' urtext. Phillip Morris. Moby Dick. Your gayness is invading me. Well it all starts as a little teenage thingy.
I love driving and listening to 60's music. Like Allman Brothers, Creedance or Bob Dylan stuff, makes me feel like a hippie. And those furry dice. I suppose that with enough gray matter anybody one could realize that those don't hinder the driver's view. Well I bet she looks good on the dancefloor.
"...which provokes a cleavage in one of its voices. Starting from four voices, one of them will beduplicated, in our case the contralto (preferring the sopranos). This resolves in an imperfect plagal cadence, or Rimsky Korsakov resolution, by making common or enharmonic sounds of both chords stay firm. All the other sounds must proceed by joint degrees. This foresees a IV° degree chord in second inversion with its fifth duplicated which resolves in a I grade, root position in position of octaves..."
Engine. District. Magneto. Power. Central. Mud.

Six Silver Moonbeams. There goes the great Mangoré! Did it ever ocurred you to help me. Can you take me out for dinner? Because I like to be dined after I've been fucked. Nice sunblock. Go away you stupid towel.
I'm an artist, I never apologize for the truth.
100$ for composition classes? Might say yes. Not that I need them.
Why the fuck does people spend so much money on fireworks? It's something that lights up and explodes, literally burning money.
Saw a used Star Wars lunchbox. 120$ I think. Then the Baywatch trading card game, which I googled but didn't exist.
