Today was real productive. I got some good piano practice in, did some work on the legos project due tomorrow, and I did the easy option on the cosc homework... and thats all i did today.

Piano practice was real cool, as usual, but it was unique today because the two "good" pianos at Belcher were taken by clarinet players. ("good" but still bad. One is terribly out of tune, and the other is an electric piano which plays in MIDI. I know, because of the way it sounds and the fact that it says "MIDI" on the top.) I ended up on the "bad" piano, which is in tune, but you have to hit some of the keys really hard to make them play. I could imagine what a person would sound like if thats all they had practiced on, but were playing a normal piano at last. I mean, it would sound good until every time they hit that one or two notes here and there which would be especially loud and out of place.

The legos project went ok, but I get so frustrated with my team sometimes. They are good guys, both of them, but it is like I have to spell out every single little step to them. They sit and watch youtube videos (they didn't today, but they do) and then when I tell them to get on task, they are like "what do you want us to do?". Which is the worst question, because at any given time there are so many things I would rather that they do rather than watch youtube videos. I get overwhelmed and just wish I could yell at them. "I don't know, but do SOMETHING!"

Today they didn't watch youtube videos, but I had my cosc homework to do, and I wanted to get back to the dorm quickly, but one of my teamsters left early, and the other kept asking me questions, the answers to which I thought were obvious, but proved to be circular --because of the way he was asking them. I got frustrated because I didn't catch on to his line of thinking, but knowing what I know now, I think I would have been just as frustrated, if not more frustrated if I knew, and that is solely because it was circular and therefore would not have ever allowed us to finish our project.

I took the easy way out on my COSC homework for lack of time, but that doesnt mean I am slacking. I read the chapter and did all the example work this time, so that I would know the material. Problem being I did all that tonight, leaving me with no time at all to do the work that needed to be done.

Speaking of which, I just found another example which I should do because it looks really pertinent and I don't want to miss anything.

It is 1:00 --Signing off
