Day 172

I've started playing my flute again recently. I think it started with looking up Doomsday by Murray Gold from Doctor Who. I tripped up all over the place trying to play it, slowly remembering how to read the notes. My fingers for the most part remembered where to go to play each note, so that wasn't very difficult, but the fluidity of movement was not very for awhile there.

I also dabbled with the Game of Thrones theme and then today played Sailor Saturn's theme from Sailor Moon. That was the best I have done yet, though I am still having issues with some notes to the point that I am wondering if my flute is broken. It is very inconsistent, but at times I can't make the A flat sound out and then a few seconds later it will be fine. I kept trying to watch and see if all the valves were closing and opening like they should for the note, but there are quite a lot of them for that note, and nothing popped out as odd looking.

Now I want to play the Finale song from Game of Thrones after watching the last episode. The song is so epic and awesome and connected to one of my favorite scenes from the books and I'm almost done with them so that is saying something. Made it into a ringtone within a few hours of first hearing it...and repeating it...and repeating it. Only 2:31 minutes long. That's how to write music, goddamn. This Ramin Djawadi guy is pretty fabulous.
