Recruitment

I went to school today and spent over 5 hours there. It was actually really spectacular. I have decided on quite a few of my pieces for the fall concert and have some ideas for the winterfest concert, although I can't make any decisions until I know my choir.

Recruitment. That is what the next few weeks are about. Oh, and all the other grad school stuff. I am so blessed that John is able to help support us- because it would be very difficult to have a full time (or even part time) job. Today it hit me how much I really have to do.

My teacher said something today that made a lot of sense- graduate school is about paying your dues. He said that it's a lot of work and a lot of crappy work that I may or may not have to do in the future. I took that as long hours, a little bit of schmoozing (mainly to make connections), hard work, etc.

I also met the other grad student. I also had a meeting with a couple of undergrads and we talked about ACDA. What was really cool is that once every Friday we get to have staff meetings- my teacher, me, and the other grad student. It's awesome.

I'm so ready for this.
