Passed my third comp, yo...

Now just trying to get paperwork filled out so I can "start" on my ABD.

BOOM AGAIN!

Boom

Passed another exam!

Passed Yevgeniy Sharlat's orchestration exam (Brahms intermezzo). One more to go...

By the Way...

...I passed my first specialized comp on Monday. It was Dan Welcher's Listening Exam, where he "drops the needle" in a given piece from a list of works (68 total). Needed to name the piece, composer, year of composition and nationality.

Only missed one (which I'm really annoyed with) but made up for it on the extra credit question.

Yippee.

1 down, 2 more to go.

Our Trip to San Antonio

We visited Jac's cousins (one was taking in some training at the hospital and the other was visiting San Antonio) for a weekend of hilarity. Below are some pictures.


The view of a famous San Antonio hotel from the River Walk tour.


Our River Walk tour guide...I think he looks like a friend's husband...


Looks like a wall, don't it?


Ah, the hat trying on-ing...doesn't Jac look like a random passer-by in the picture on the left?



Hey, I WAS there!


Delicious Italian-style Ice Cream (gelato).


Awwww.



Doesn't that shadow look like Katie's carrying a severed head?

I don't know why

But I think this commercial is too funny. It's absurd in so many ways but hilarious.
