Basket Case

Hey Everyone,

It's been kind of a crazy week so far, I'm glad we're coming to the weekend. I have a bit of advice to dish out that I've figured out the hard way, mainly for music people.

If you are planning on being a music education major here at Luther, you don't really have time to fit in classes that are outside of that focus except your gen. eds. which have to be squeezed in whenever you can find room for them. My first semester I took an acting class, which was an amazing experience, but was 4 credits that didn't fulfill any of my requirements. I registered for the upcoming semester last night, and now I'm stuck trying to fit in my required classes as well as the growing list of education classes.

Trying to get your major accomplished as well as all of the extra requirements is a hard thing to do, so don't be surprised by that. Try and get a copy of the course catalogue and check out those kinds of things before registering this summer.

Ok, enough about that, but I thought since I figured it out a little late, I should let you guys know early if it'll help.

Intramural softball started this week, which is super exciting for me. I played baseball my whole life until this year, so it feels good to get back out on the diamond in the springtime, especially with my friends. I'm not doing too bad either, I already have two homeruns haha.

Cathedral Choir had their concert this week as well, which is the all sophomore choir, and it was very impressive. It was nice to hear them, because choir auditions are coming up soon for us, and I may end up in that Cathedral.

I've got to get going though, I've got my third test this week in a little bit, and it might be nice to review a bit.

Take care,
Alex
