Well you know I love classical music! But the Hummel Trumpet Concerto can bite me! I am so sick of listening to all the experts play it while I clanker it out trying to sound like they do. But a friend of mine said once to not to try to sound like somebody else, but to sound how they make you feel when you listen to them. Wise old man I know.
But I don't want to practice anymore, haven't in weeks, just don't feel like it. I am tired of a lot of people pressuring me to do it. I will do it when I want to, dang it. Even my T can bite me too! I will practice when I want to and exercise when I want to, so there, bossy T!!!!!!!!! Why do people give a flicking care on what I do? I am tired of people being on my *ss.But I love practicing the guitar, I learned my first blues song, and love it , love it, love it. My fingers are remembering where to go when I see the notes, this is good. I am probably 4 weeks ahead of my lesson, but why not go on in the book if I perfected my assignments? I improve everytime I practice. I wish it was that way for the trumpet. Guitar is so much more relaxing, you don't have to do breathing olympics to play. Don't know what to do, I think guitar is taking over the trumpet. I know such problems, right? Blah, blah, blah, sorry to bore ya. Sometimes life is a sh*t sandwich, and I am sick of it being the only thing on the menu.
