You know, it's hard to find time to blog or do anything not stressful when you're in the middle of your last year of college. Weird, right?
I am always left amused when I sit back and realise that each of my professors has the idea that, to "help" us feel less busy, they are lighter on the homework at the beginning and end of the semester and pile everything at mid-term. As "good-hearted" as this may be, the problem is that when everyone is doing the same thing it doesn't really work as they intend. Instead the students are left with two or three weeks in the semester in which their lives feel like they're about to unravel because EVERYTHING IS DUE AT ONCE! The result? One of my classes didn't happen for me on Tuesday and one assignment became ignored completely. I am okay with this.
Even with all of this going on, Halloween is upon us. I don't actually care for Halloween very much. I appreciate the candy and sugar portion of the holiday, but I could live without everything else. Especially the costumes. There's a reason I've been a "model" and a "nudist on strike" the last couple of years. I just don't care anymore. Some people do and I'm so glad that they do. They can care on my behalf.
Having said that, this song is my latest project from my Orchestration class I was talking about last month. This time we were supposed to do a string and woodwind version of a piece from Bela Bartok's Mikrokosmos. I thought it sounded kind of creepy in a cool way so I tried to stay true to that while orchestrating. This is the closest I get to Halloween. Enjoy!
