i have just gotten my first marks for the term. and i have also just had my first true drunk at school... i wonder how connected they are...
it's weird to have a convo with drunk seminarians. to begin with, there are the normal sorts of drunk who talk about sex or obscure movies or scotland... odd, but acceptable. then there are those who start to talk theology, or about classes (well, i suppose that it not so odd), or even begin to chant parts of the liturgy in latin just to see if we are paying attention. which is weird, since our church rejected latin for the liturgy back 500 years ago...
drunk seminarians are a truly odd lot...
the mark i got on my paper for church music was an A... i was really glad, and sort of surprised, since our professor is David Hurd... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Hurd ... the assignment was to review a concert, one of the pieces performed thereat was the american premier of a work of his. talk about a rough assignment> how do you review a work composed by your prof? esp since i had some criticisms of it? well, i just decided to be honest, and to be sure i backed up my opinion... apparently it worked...
we are going on retreat this weekend. i am looking forward to it in some ways since it will give me a chance to "bond" with my classmates > it is hard transferring into a clsass that has already been together for a year.... i'll let you know if it is a success or not... all i know is that, right now, i don't feel i fit in any where....
