New layout because I am obsessed. brokenrecord__. I've been wanting a new layout for like a month but I haven't really been... into anything enough to make anything, I guess. Don't know how long this will last because it's kind of different from what I usually have, but I like it for now.

Anyways, today consisted of not doing much. I did practice my audition music some more and I think my music actually might go all right. I'm fucked for the scales, but last year when they asked me for one scale I played several notes from an entirely different scale before being all "er. Wait. No. Let me try again." and even then I still messed it up. And I still ended up getting in. So, I think the music's more important than the scales. We'll see. I'm trying not to get my hopes up.

I also read Nick Hornby's A Long Way Down today, and it was excellent. I want to read more of his stuff.

Tomorrow I may be doing something with Emma and Mukul and possibly other people? We're not very good at working out the details. But I assume it will happen. I want to try to get us to see Brokeback Mountain, because I think Emma is actually interested in seeing it, and I think it would be fun to force Mukul to see it. Hey, there's more man-on-woman sex than man-on-man sex! I think we could convince him with that. And at some point, I really need to go to the animal shelter. sigh.

Nick Hornby's an amazing writer and "A Long Way Down" was incredible the way he captured all of those individual voices so clearly. Have you read "High Fidelity" or "About a Boy"? They're both great reads too :)

A Long Way Down really was an amazing book. I haven't read either of those, A Long Way Down was the first book by him I've read, but I think I'll start checking out his other stuff.
