How are you?

I am just grand

Hey, I'm just super grand!              

[imbetter]

I am unhappy with my piano playing. I would go attempt to fix it but my brother is practicing.

[bestpianosoftware]

I am sleepy as well.  From where I am now reading your post, it is three in the morning and I am not in bed yet. 

[communist]

I have a mild soar throat 

I am almost finished listening to all of Rzewski's variations on the people united will never be defeated. Great piece.

Aww, commi, hope you feel better quick!   

[ahinton]

How high is it soaring? Surely you have a sore one! Anyway, I hope you recover from it soon.

In whose recording?

Best,

With all those clocks going off, I am amazed you get any sleep at all.

Have a quote:

'Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.'
~ The Third Man (1949)

Whoever that wrote is wrong. It were the Germans who invented the cuckoo clock

[thalbergmad]

That is a bit like saying Hero of Alexandria and not James Watt invented the steam engine.

The Swiss perfected the cuckoo clock.

I'm surprised, but it also seems to capture my take on Germans -- logical and precise, but also a bit insane sometimes.


Oi... My head feels a bit compressed today.  Maybe it's the rain.

I'm anxious to start playing on the grand pianos at my university!!  3 more days!

I went to the 4th floor of the music building, and randomly walked by "Studio of Angela Hewitt", and inside there was a nice grand piano.  I didn't even know she had a studio there, and it would be pretty awesome if I happened to walk by her one day.  Just the atmosphere of that building, the library, the billions of pianos, the auditorium; I want to live there!

I'm also bored out of my mind because my Xbox is broken, and it's too late to go out and do anything

[weissenberg2]

I also have sun burn on my nose and now the skin is peeling

I have school tomorrow so I won't get to practice that much (and the sun burn will look  bad )

[pinhanil]

I am very sad, I miss playing the piano

[Bob]

Ticked off.  With reason.  I was there was a switch to turn it off.  It just seems to stay on.

[weissenberg2]

I was just weeding my yard and I got pricked on my left wrist and it itched very badly. When it stopped I went back to weeding and then I was more aggressive than Weissenberg's Bach partita no.3 in A minor.

Now my left wrist is floppy. I hope it does not effect my piano playing.

[go12_3]

Just a bit down today...

[Bob]

Tired with work piling up.  This gets old.  I even made progress on some projects today but put off others and now I have a pile of other stuff that has to be done with less time to do it.  I can't win.

[weissenberg2]

I have a dry throat 

[tds]

lozenges?

[tds]

I am just grand 

admirable...not too many people can say that everyday..cheers

[weissenberg2]

Now my throat is fine.

[go12_3]

Now my throat is fine.

Good to hear that   

[weissenberg2]

Just sight read: Chopin waltz op.69 no.2, and the funeral march from op.72. Not that well, but I still feel accomplished 

[bella_brito]

Happy! Won the 1st place on a national piano competition! Solo and 4 hands!

Not doing well, lost a very special friend....

[brianhoberg]

I'm tired of being in the office and I've only been here 2.5 hours. I'd rather be practicing on the piano as for the past couple of nights my son has had other plans for my time in not wanting to sleep correctly. so, I'm missing it.

[morningstar]

I'm doing OK, got in a fight with dad and have moved in with a friend for a bit til they cool down. Could be a bit though, was rather violent...I miss my piano too 
Other than that everything is good, having fun times with the girlfriend (she's fantastic!) and doing a course in Security Operations so I can be a security guard/technician.
Should I be posting in the Intro thread again? Haven't been here in a while

[communist]

Not doing well, lost a very special friend....

If you don't feel like hearing me complain about my life just gloss over this message.

So my class had a science test, only 1 person passed and it was the person I feel competitive with  the only reason why he passed it because he had done mass, volume and density before for geometry (mass, volume and density is what the test was on). I am still mad though. But don't worry, I have a social studies test tomorrow that I know I am going to get a very good grade on 

please humor me, I actually think you care about this.

Yes, you will do great in your test tomorrow!!!   woohoo!              

[littletune]

well it wasn't the best week... some people made me really sad 
but other than that i got to play a real piano!!!!! and it was soooooooooooooo great! and cool! and the best!!!!!! i wish i could have one at home!!!!!! i think if i had it i just couldn't stop playing
and also... my fish seems to be feeling a bit better.... it wasn't eating for a few days, but now it started eating again.... so i really hope it will get better!...
so i guess people make me sad and animals and pianos (and music) make me happy ! at least thats how it was this week...

[thalbergmad]

my fish seems to be feeling a bit better

I think you should get a piano.

Years ago i had a goldfish and one day it was looking pretty bored. I put the bowl on the piano and played a few pieces and he started moving around a lot more.

I came to the conclusion that piano music is good for goldfish, so perhaps it would do your fish some good as well.

Best to avoid playing any Schumann, as this will destroy any positive effects.

[weissenberg2]

Thank you. I think I did very well except I know I got 1 question wrong. I had to write the definition for the word "borough" (the section of NYC) and I did not know it was that form  I am pretty sure I got everything else correct though.
