To anyone who wants to

Re:

hello!!!!
here are my
answers
1. Right now, i practise about 4 hours a day...it
depends if i have to work or not. I dont practise for long periods
of time, cause my wrists tend to go out after playing really hard
for about an hour
2. I barely practise at home during
school...but remember that on mondays for example. I have a 1 1/2
hour class...then i go home and practise for an hour...then i got to
orchestra for 3 hours....so basically i still play the cello alot,
but just not alone
3. No, i will NOT major in music in
university (i live in canada, college is for dumbasses here)
umm
basically, a degree gets u no where in canada. You have to be like
yo yo ma to get a really good job here..unless i lived in europe,
where they get government funding...there is no way that i will
major in music
4. How do i balance school and cello?? haha i
think the question for me is how do i balance, a job, school, cello,
two orchestras, cello lessons, and track practise every day........i
dont know...i just do it. Hurrah for 16 hour
days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my
answers
1. Pretty much 4 hours a
day
2. I'm really really going to try and do 4 hours this
year, but I probably won't be able to do it. I always try to give
myself enough break time so I don't hurt myself, which means it
takes me 6 hours to practice 4.
3. I'm definitely going to go
into music, which makes school SOOOOOOOO frustruating. Everything
that I have to do for school isn't even looked at by music schools.
Argh! I am going to miss having all this time to practice once
school starts. Boo hoo!
4. I was hoping that there was some
unknown secret out there. Oh well, I guess I won't sleep.

Re: my
answers
it's nice to know that i'm not the
only one who hates school!
1) during summer or other breaks,
anywhere from 3-6 hours a day. during school, at least 2 hours, and
i practically have to fight for more than that.
2) well, this
year i might get in the youth symphony, which would give me a great
excuse to leave my homework, as school orchestra, well, lets just
say they don't practise.
3) yes, definately. i wish that i could
get into someplace like interlochen... an aquaintance of mine was
accepted this year, so it got me thinking. anyone have any advice on
this, feel free to share!
4) i don't, honestly. if i don't feel
like doing homework, i put it away until i have practised enough
(enough, ha!). and if school in neglected, well, i'll live!
