Aced it

So, my TA amount does not cover as much as I wish it would. I had not thought that the amount received would be insufficient. I thought that either I would get nothing or that it would cover most of tuition. Of course, the experience of having my own college choir is wonderful, plus I AM still getting a small stipend. So even though the college is getting very cheap labor, I certainly would not refuse the position. That would be dumb and probably very ungrateful. But it does cause me to pause when thinking about finances.

On a positive note, I got the results back from my music history and music theory placement exams. I passed both and therefore will not have to take any remedial courses in history or theory. I will have to take one history course as a part of my program. But since I scored well in all areas, I can pick any historic era I want. I am registered to take an analysis course and will be able to keep that in my schedule since I passed theory. I'm very glad I will be getting that done with immediately.

It's almost the weekend. School starts Monday. John's birthday is Sunday.
