Stage 3, Day 29(30)
Today was a pretty good day.
Ritual and Class. The girl that I like has a boyfriend. Oh well.
Gym; I hit it hard; it's the last workout of this particular phase. So start Monday, a new workout and diet plan.. with Cheat DAYS!!! OMG! You can eat whatever you want one day a week. First order of business is eating marshmellows dipped in nutella and honey.
Anyways, at 2, I go to a group evaluation of my program; with some teachers that aren't from our school, we talked about the aspects of our program and how to improve. We finish at 3.
And from there, this got interesting for me.
I get home, clean up my place, start making flashcards. I get tired of doing them around 5:20. I tell myself that I'll start some of my musician rituals.
I start with vocalist. Then I do electric guitarist. And then Acoustic Guitarist. At the end, I've spent 3.5 hours doing something musical. AND THEN, I keep jamming afterwards. It's practically 10pm by the time that I'm done.
Some school related stuff gets done, and I then write a lesson plan for a guitar student of mine. Which reminds me; I'm giving my first guitar lesson tomorrow. He's a friend, but sounds like a complete beginner. I'd rather teach intermediates to get good; it's more engaging. But either way.
I didn't mention that after class ended today, I have 48 hours off of everything; school, work, etc. Everything that I take on is purely volontary. Sweet.
And, at work, there's a new guy who looks and acts like he finished Stage 6; dressed well, good manneurisms, solid presence, etc. He's a pretty cool guy. When I met him, I wasn't solid emotionally. Then again, I'm not really right now either. This seems to be common at the end of each stage. Stage 2, it was more anger and irritation. Stage 1, it was fear and being under pressure, though that was an external situation.
This Stage, I've experienced a bit of jealousy and a lot of feelings of being "Stuck", or mild grief. While playing my music today, I felt guilt for enjoying it. Once again, I'm excited for Stage 4!
