Let's see how well I faired with my to-do list from yesterday:
- Send out some more resumes --> I didn't even open my resume folder today. I touched it several times, moving it from place to place, but alas never opening it.
- Finish my MAS readings from last week (10 pages) and start the readings for Wednesday (40 pages) --> I got last week's readings out while I was working in the Music Office but things were SO busy (way crazier than normal) that I didn't read any of it.
- Start my marketing readings (100 pages) --> Looked at the outside of my textbook, but decided that practising was of greater importance seeing as the concerto competition is on a few more sleeps away.
- Get a new recital date. --> This I actually made some progress on. I made a few posters and put them up around the music faculty and already got one response. The proposal that came forward is for Feb. 16 which is considerably earlier AND I have a dress rehearsal in the morning in Stratford that day... I'll talk it over with Prof. McKay tomorrow nevertheless. Hopefully some more people will see the poster tomorrow.
- I must go to the gym. --> I put this off to go to work instead. I have a large chunk of time tomorrow morning after 10:30 and I'll already be close to the gym so perhaps I shall go tomorrow.
- Take my textbooks to the used bookstore --> Didn't even think about it until I started reading this list just now....
- Figure out how I'm going to get out of Wind Ensemble for 5 on Wednesday --> I asked our conductor and it looks like I'm just going to be late for meeting up with Prof. McKay at 5... perhaps I'll encourage him to interrupt/come get me if I'm not out by 5:05 or something... :S
- Pick up a bursary check from the SLB --> I stood in the pleasantly long line only to learn that I needed my SIN card to pick the check up. Yay for wasted time in lines! I shall probably try again tomorrow
- Listen to Mendelssohn's Scottish Symphony & learn the part --> Well I wrote down the call number for the CD, but lost the piece of paper. I ordered the score from the ARCC so I should have the part to look at in a few days, if not tomorrow.
- Practice Mozart like there's no tomorrow --> I actually did this. Yay for one out of 11!!!!!!!!!!
- Cook enough food for the next five days --> HA. Yeah, so this didn't happen. My lunch consisted of a pasta dish I've been eating for the past few days and my dinner was, well, not even mentionable... too lacking in nutritional value... let's just leave it at that.
p.s. I bought long underwear today and it is fantastic. I thoroughly recommend all people who have to walk out in the cold a lot to get a pair or two or three: they *really* do make a difference!
p.p.s. Buying suits. Weirdest thing to do ever... I took an hour while I was buying the long underwear, etc. to meander around some of the stores at Masonville to discover that I can wear anything from a size 6-14. That is a HUGE range and makes trying on uber amounts of clothes a necessity. I did find a pin-striped one at the Bay, but I think I'd rather have a solid black one so I could use it for concerts as well as those pesky interviews coming up. Anyone who would like to accompany me in a further expedition would earn like a 1000000 merit points.
