Random thoughts

I've been playing more and more flute lately and enjoying it, although it does have quite a major leak in the auxiliary F key (not sure thats the name).  At this point, playing music in general is just plain fun.  I'll probably get more and more into it and then stop only to do it all over again like before.  The local technician is not cheap at all either (95$ per hour) so that is just a bit discouraging when it comes to fixing my flute.  Doesn't help that they do not give estimates either.  Oh well, guess they won't be receiving my business for a while...if ever.

Recently, I've revisited some old sheet music from the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack, namely Tank!.  The solo isn't complete by any means, but its pretty well done over all.  It's pretty tough (actually I'm just not that good) but I know that I would get it one day if I were to continue playing that is.  It doesn't help that I've caught yet another cold (though going away as we speak) so I couldn't play any music for the past 3 days or so.

I've accidentally (kinda) ignored translating/responding to an email that I had [apparently] received from the school I will be attending in Japan for about 11 days (!!).  Pretty unprofessional....it was during my gaming period (Chrono Trigger to be precise).  So I've sent the letter of certification or entry back to them so I can get a new version stating that I will be entering the school in July term.  Speaking of the school, looks like the website got a updated a bit (not that I've been checking regularly mind you).  I'm still deciding on how to break the news that I'm still going to Japan despite the natural disaster that just occurred.  Ideally, I would just say I'm leaving, and be gone the next day (if this were to really be the case, I would ideally get a job as soon as 2 years are up...in Japan of course).  This is just something I can't really mess up...

Anyhow, I gotta eat and then pick up some Dear Boy at the 'port.
