A Day in the Life..

7:30 -Alarm clock goes off  super early so I can get up and do approx. six hours of studying/paper writing before class. Ambitious? yes. Realistic? no.
That's why I press snooze four times

8:57- Actual wake up time. Check email and do stuff for school at home involving confusing PDFs on the computer. Always check email in the morning because most people from home email in the evening...aka middle of the night Wien time.

9:00- Eat cheerios. in a mug.

9:10-10:00 Get ready, pack bookbag, procrastinate

10:00-10:30- Walk to school. Pass by Theater an der Wien where Beethoven's 5th premiered and he used to live. Also walk through a Mile of Composers..stars in the concrete with their autographs-think Hollywood walk. Pass the infamous Naschtmarkt. Also pass Secession, some giant museums that look like palaces, and the Staatsoper (Opera house). Just to give you an idea of what the walk is like...

10:30-1:31 Go to study room, throw my 30 pound bookbag on floor. Take out computer and set up camp. I am currently occupying one entire four person table with books, computer, and water bottle. The agenda? -German take home test, Music History take home journals (500 hours of work here), and Music History listening practice.

1:31 pm Decide it's time to procrastinate. Get on facebook. Check email a lot of times. Start writing this blog.

1:35 Realize I can only write this far because the day isn't done yet. ....to be continued.
1:37 continues to "do work"
2:00 take advil because my neck hurts (Have I mentioned yet that pillows here are terrible? It's basically an air bubble that goes flat when you try to sleep on it... dumb.)
3:00 go to class
4:30 Go to coaching-We each have a coaching 1x a week with a pianist. We can work on our solo repertoire  and they help us.
I stayed at mine an extra 15 minutes today because the girl after me had to cancel.
5:30- start the walk home. Stop at Billa (grocery store) to buy chicken, veggies, bananas and yogurt.
6:00 Home. Get on computer, realize that internet is being weird.
6:30 Started blogging...here I am now. Anddd I'll just make a prediction of what will happen tonight
6:37 Start to make dinner-chicken with tomatoes and shrooms.
7:00 Eat and all that jazz
7:20 Procrastinate
7:40- Start German take home test and brainstorm lesson plans for Wednesday
9:00 Probably won't have finished either but may decide to skype.
11:00 Finish both.
12:00 beddd


...And now you know.
