It's Sunday, Sunday, gotta make goals on Sunday... plus reflections on last week

   ^a little Rebecca Black there? XD

   Anyways, here were my goals for last week...

1. Make goals for the week every Sunday.
2. Upload a video once very weekend (I only have access to recording during weekends).
3. Learn the rest of Pachelbel Canon in D.
4. Try to make ^ sound more fluid/pretty.
5. Ask Julianna (sister) to critique.

1- Alright! So I'm doing this so far, seeing as how this post is supposed to be for making goals...

2- So I'm slightly having technical issues with my dad's iPhone (with which I am recording my progress), because the first video, I cut in a 30s portion to make it possible for me to email it to myself directly through the iPhone (it needed to be cut, and I could cut it easily on the iPhone). However, this second video I made has to be longer than 30s, so I figured I just transfer it through to my computer and edit it later, but since I couldn't find a program with which to upload it, I had to just upload it as it is. Being filled with mistakes, it's going to be super embarrassing, but it's uploading right now (takes 30 minutes to upload cause apparently it's quite lengthy, and I had to find a new upload server because for some reason it just won't upload on 4shared....)

3- Yep yep, totally working on this! I've read through the end of the song, but I'll write all about it in the next post.

4- Same for this one! I'll be writing more about it in the next post, but I'll consider this done!

5- Okay, so I've made the decision to push this one back one week because I figured it'd be best to have the whole song kinda under my arm before I ask someone else to critique. I don't think I want to do this multiple times, so I'll redo this goal this week, and ask Julianna to critique for me once I'm familiar with all of Canon. 

---------------------------------------------------------------

I've done 4/5, that's still passing, right?

Here's this week's goals, let's aim for 100%!

1. Ask Julianna to critique.
2. Look through all past journal posts and REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAID YOU'D UPDATE (speaking to me)
3. Try to journal as soon as things happen, if possible (ie. right after a mentor meeting or right after practice)
4. Use this week as a last week for Canon in D, practicing and "perfecting" (? possibly ?)
5.  Brainstorm a bit more about end project ideas.
6. Research on history of the piano.
7. Contact Yuangting Li, a Chinese girl at IHS who gives piano lessons, for some help in trying to work on Fireflies?
