30/1/13 - about half 11am

First essay result came in. Not sure why this is big news, cos I'm not even really that fussed and I know you certainly won't be, but you know what it's like - you do the work and hang around a place where everyone takes it seriously and you begin to too.

Anyway, got an A-. Pretty happy with that tbh, although I think there were a few around a similar grade so it doesn't put me on a pedestal or anything. Still when I think about it that subject really WASN'T for me so I've gotta be pretty happy with the mark. It is equivalates to 18/20. Jamie got an A, which would be 19/20. Wee bit gutted he beat me but pretty pleased for him as well - looks like I was right, there is some intelligence under the not really giving much of a shit haha!

Not much else to report, still just trying to keep on top of things. Had my first rehearsal for performance yesterday. Need to really work on the songs but I'm pleased with the guys I've got - a guy called Dave on bass who responded to my email and a guy he knew called Dechlan on guitar. They know the place much better than me so they'll help get other people involved and stuff which is good, and they seem to know their stuff so I wanna really get on it considering I'm meant to be the degree guy! Got an email from Annette saying we're to do a short presentation on where we're at including a finalised programme... And of course I've been in the first group this Monday coming. Gotta get that last track sorted.

Got a couple new lessons starting this week - going to Newmains for one tomorrow night and then got one in Cleghorn on Sat. Could be earning a decent amount at this rate. It's making me think maybe I would be best sticking around here. If I could get a function band together, keep doing lessons and get and play my own music as well... That would be a decent life. Like I've said, we'll see though.
