Been a while since I updated this thing, innit? Well, I've been busy. Mostly performing as a part of the school orchestra, one of the cellists has carpal tunnel or some such nonsense so I've been filling in for him. It's been fun, I like performing with an orchestra a lot.

I've also been writing some music. Take a look below the cut, it's a fun piece.

Sharpay, thanks.

Just in case anyone was wondering - the whores are on Troost Ave, not my dorm room.

Or check out some of the freshman-only halls once the semester starts.

Either way, I'm not for sale. Regardless of past transgressions. Got it? Good.

Went home to visit the family in England. Being here makes me wish we had this weather in Kansas, it is so much better than the heat and humidity.

Turns out, my older sister is getting married sometime next year. My mum says I'm to be a groomsman. Looks like I'm going to have to find a tux and look like a wanker. Joy.

All, right, I'll play your silly game.

1) Go HERE to generate 10 random numbers between 1 and 100. Generate a different set of numbers for each character you pick. DO THIS FIRST.

2) Then I will answer the corresponding questions from HERE.

Being a TA is harder than I thought and is sucking my life away. Plus, I'm still taking violin and cello lessons and the music won't leave me alone! I've spent every free waking minute it seem holed up in the music room working.

Kelsi? I might need some voice for lyrics if you're free. Or if there is any guys who can sing? I hear the words in my head in a guys voice...but beggars can't be choosers.

Tentatively, I've written 4 songs and the muses do not seem to be stopping any time soon so we shall see. I feel better though, cathartic in a way. I've been recording the tracks, laying down each instrument one at a time over the others. I'm not a production person really, but I'm proud of the results so far, they may not be professional per se, but they're MINE.

I have a bit of music in my brain that won't stop poking me. Subsequently, I have given in and have been working on it. It has almost a calypso Caribbean beat. It's missing something though.

Anyone here fancy themselves a lyricist?

EDIT: Kelsie? Someone mentioned your name...

It's about time I introduced myself on this things then. I'm Jono Starsmore and I just transfered her from Gallaudet University. For those of you not familiar with it, that would be the university for the Deaf. I'm rooming in Dillon with Veronica, Ron & Mikaela.

However, I am not deaf. I am actually, a music major focusing on cello performance. I also play the violin, piano, guitar and bass guitar. If you ask really nicely, I might even play the spoons. I am mute though. Due to a lovely twist of Fate, Puck, Loki or whatever you want to call it, I can no longer speak. Hence, the talking with my hands bit. I promise, I'm not at all Italian.

Originally I'm from Wales which means little to you Yanks, so just go with 'London, England' instead. I've been living in the states on and off since I was 16 though so I know which side of the pavement to drive a lorry truck on. America and Britain, two countries separated by a common language.

In addition to being a music major, I also tutor music if anyone wants lessons for any reason and I am a TA for some ASL classes this summer if anyone wants to learn. That's American Sign Language (not to be confused with BSL, British Signing Language). Every Monday night there is a get together at the local coffee shop off campus for the Deaf community as well, which is a great place to meet people, learn or practice your sign or just hang out. You don't need to know any sign language to come, I promise. I'm there every week.

This has gone longer than I anticipated so I think I'm going to log off now! *waves*
