Monique and I made it out to Macworld 2007, and it was pretty dang cool. Not much else to say besides we saw a lot of mac software and ipod accessories. See that dog between us, yeah, I got that for her, just cause I'm a nice guy. Alright, the iPhone rocks too. Have a great day.

Happy Sunday all. Today was a fun day with Monique and I spending a lovely, yet cold Sunday afternoon together eating some lunch and shopping at the mall. In the evening, I was invited to a dinner part at the Furtado house, and I had dinner with their family, along with two other familes. Everyone was portuguese, except me, and we all ate traditional Portuguese food. It was all really good with people talking, having a fun time together.

In Class
Another day has come and gone. And it has been a few days since I've written anything online. There are plenty of reasons for this, but I'm not going to get into that. Maybe for another day. But for right now, I'd like to write on the blog again just to get into the swing of it again.
The semester is finishing up here at Sonoma State. I've found it both and learning experience, both at the school and out of school. Since my focus is film composition, I've sure been listening to a lot of music. One thing I found is that I start to understand music long after I am exposed to it. Along with learning music, I'm also learning about music history a lot more than I ever did in a classroom. I think a lot of what I'm learning right now, I'll start to understand it years down the road.
For me, Its a struggle to juggle all the "things" that I need to be doing. Things like being able to listen to music, listen to film scores, read through music scores as I listen, read books about music, and composers, and trying to compose myself. Its a very difficult task when I factor in everything else that doesn't have to do with music. My life, family and friends, along with all the other daily activities that enter all of our lives.
So this brings me to today...

Amazon Birthday Wishlist
For those who ask what to get me for my birthday, I've added a nice list to the right of this post on the main page so you can click on my Amazon Wish List and look around. There are books about music, music books, books about film composing along with a cd or two. I might add to the list so check back. Also, a lot of books I added to this list cause they were really kind of cheap and looked cool. Anyway, hope this helps! Only 9 more shopping days!
