Oh, hi there! Thought I forgot about you, eh?
Nope, it's just been a busy Summer, with doctor visits galore, classes, traveling to see a sick relative, and having family in town. Not to mention a puppy who's managed to end up with giardia, which has been... smelly and time-consuming.
But, as planned, I have returned for another go-around with module 5.1, rejoining my class from before the Summer "break." And boy am I glad to be back. It's nice to see familiar faces and to hear familiar Danish. Plus, I really do like the way our teacher teaches.
In other news, last week I embarked on what I'm calling Project Let's-Find-Out-if-Ruby-is-a Piano-Prodigy.
In preparation for auditions to try to get into a music program at a university here in Copenhagen, I've started to take piano lessons. I've never taken lessons on an instrument, and have only really learned to read music as a singer, so... I'm leaning towards me not being a prodigy.
That being said, I do have the advantage of already knowing quite a bit about music, so the teacher has been able to skip a lot of the basic music theory stuff and jump right into trying to train my hands to listen to my brain.
I'm convinced my left hand is controlled by someone other than me.
