TIME OFF..

I've got the entire week off because the orchestra is playing Beethoven Symphony No. 3 and Symphony No. 9

So what do I do...

well, I practice most of the day of course! but I do get bored sometimes...my housemates are in rehearsal for 3 to 4 hours. We usually hang out until they come back. Often, they go teach so I end up waiting much longer.

I'm getting to know this city a lot better. There are some areas which I have not been to but as you get more gigs and start teaching more you end up driving all over the place.

The good thing about being off is that Thursday I get to walk into orchestra rehearsal hall and pick up my check for all that practicing I did at home :)
