Welcome!

Welcome, whether you're new to my stuff or an old reader, to Farfalla (previously Coming Later, lately Ooh! Shiny!). The butterfly imagery, in addition to being just plain adorable, is indicative of the blog's changes over the past year or so, but no worries; I'm having as much fun as ever and I hope that's apparent.
I hope you enjoy, and as always,

Blah blah first day of school

News: I got into Soc 1 online. Which will negate needing to take "Why We White People Are Screwing Up the World", thankfully.

8am: Music Appreciation. Not going to suck. I've taken from Prof Koza before, he's awesome. And easy. And he loves Renee Fleming, which makes him a-okay in my book.


9am: Sociology of Minority Relations. I sat between two very cute boys in the back and we ignored everything Strayer was saying for the entire hour and it was very nice. And then I dropped the class. (Strayer... makes me sick to my stomach. I strongly dislike him as a teacher and feel like I'd dislike him as a person if I knew him personally. This is my third attempt at a class with him, I've never lasted longer than two weeks)

10am: Choir. Apparently I need this to graduate. I have a lot of friends in choir and this is awesome. But I miss professional choir-ing and performing and this is really amateur in comparison. But I only need a semester of this, so I will suck it up and have fun with Jaemen and Niki.

11am: Chambers. Slightly less sucky than choir in that it's by audition. I had my very first ever bad vocal audition: she had me sight-sing after singing in minor and I couldn't shift to major, and in trying to do so kept sharping. Embarrassing but eh. The audition was a formality to begin with.

1.30pm: Piano. Uhm... whoa. Okay. So the teacher (who didn't even show up to the final last year, btw) had me play for the class with about five minutes warning. I played the best song I know off the top of my head ("On Top of Old Smokey") as well as I could, and she said, "Corbyjane... she didn't pay attention in my class. And you can tell." to the other students. This teacher also once asked if the reason I kept missing class was because I "had a baby in there." (NO, OKAY??? I just like empire waisted tops because they are COMFORTABLE!!!)

Tomorrow is harmony and musicianship. It'll rock.

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.
