Roche’s limit


shadowsinthenight:

… is screwing with my brain. I think I’ve got it, but I’m not quite sure.

In other news, we had a chemistry excursion today which was quite interesting, albeit not enjoyable on four hours sleep. I drew a graph which actually had a straight line. Hurrah!

In terms of music, I’m still not sure what’s going on at school. I probably need to sort that out quickly. Senior Strings should be fun - we’ll be playing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyvwmFH3OZM, and lo and behold, I’m going to have to try and manage the omnipresent solo. Wish me luck, because I’m definitely going to need it. The comment below the video referring to the hints of Stravinsky is EXACTLY what I thought when I first heard it. What do you think?

We never do anything with a bassoon solo at school. I DEMAND MORE BASSOON SOLOS!

In fact, I’ve discussed with Sam, our awesome oboist that we should do the Vivaldi Oboe and Bassoon Concerto at Spring Breakfast with string orchestra, which would be fun. Maybe I could even do some of La Notte with them. It’s a good concerto.

Anyway, ARRANGINGYMENT TIME! HURRY UP MYSELF!

Nerds?

Booyah! There needs to be a subset of bassoonists within in the gay bit though. :P

What I’m NOT going to do in France


shadowsinthenight:

I’m going to avoid all these and my fail Asian pout. :P
  • Do drugs. Not for me. Pas de tout. Jamais.
  • Smoke. Because I’m not into emphysema.
  • Get drunk. I’m even more hyper. And I have no alcohol tolerance whatsoever, so it’s best that I stay away from the drinks…
  • Forget to email people. I promise, I’ll respond!
  • Destroy my dignity. I mean, there are several ways this could happen. I’ll just pretend to be normal.
  • Give Stuart my deathglare in public. See destroying dignity.
  • Completely mope after VCE results come out. I’ll be exceptionally depressed when I get well below my hopes, but hey, there’s next year… right?
  • Dance badly.

Actually, the last one’s impossible to not do.

Umami - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


An explanation of what umami is. :P

GLUTAMATE IONS!

Only a few hours left of being sweet 16.


shadowsinthenight:

It feels so strange. I won’t be able to say “sweet 16” anymore.

Sweet 16 is a really dumb expression anyway.

Umami 17 is so much better. :D

GASP! ARGH!

Hopefully I’m on second bassoon. That looks soooooo hard!

Of course it’s hard. It’s STRAVINSKY.

Well duh! This just has a particularly difficult bassoon part which is particularly exposed. :P
