Sweden was wonderful! Except for losing my phone, and being delayed on the way back which cost me three and a half hours of teaching. Oops. On the whole it really was lovely, though; I spent time with a good friend, and got to play in the snow, and ate lots of good fish.
I didn't end up using the practise horn while I was there as it was a bit loud but buzzing on the mouthpiece for a while every morning does seem to have helped; practising this morning was much better than last Tuesday, when I'd been away from any playing at all for three days. Mouthpiece buzzing is such a small thing, easy to do and just as easy to forget, but it really does make a big difference.
This week I will be mostly chasing paperwork.
Some of the things I need to do:
-find a summer job
-research various music summer schools
-student loan forms (ugh)
-sort out new phone, reconstruct contacts list from backups and people I can get hold of in other ways
-flathunting
-various degree-related paperwork
-non-degree compositions I've been putting on the back burner for far too long.
It's not terribly thrilling or exciting, really, but it does all need to be done.
Maybe if I have time I'll get around to some sewing. I'm going to need summer clothes sooner or later...
