Things have changed

After my music midterm it became pretty obvious that I had set my expectations a little high. I’m not sure if it was because of all the issues around my instrument or my pace but I have come to terms with the adjustment. There has been an odd shift in my daily practice as it is less frenetic and focused on simpler movements. However, this switch has flipped the mood of my practice sessions from stressful to feeling much more calm. Now when I play I find that I can focus on one thing at a time and although it is slow I feel like I am progressing.

For my end of term video growth demonstration I will be learning to play the songs “My Paddle” and “Hey Lidee”. Since I got the okay to proceed with these as my final songs I’ve been practicing the chords. Stay tuned for my next update!
