It looks as though I'm about 10 entries behind where I should be. I've been really busy at work and busy in my "off" time with applications for my Ph. D. Since no one I know really reads this blog I feel more comfortable saying I am absolutely terrified in applying to these schools. I haven't done anything musical in the past two years, I have an unfinished second masters and the people I've asked recommendation letters from haven't replied; probably because they don't remember who I am. On top of this I have to retake the GRE which asks questions that no one would ever need to know. Even as a computer programmer I barely scratch the surface of the questions they ask and I am responsible for databases with millions of entries and advanced boolean logic. Who cares what a cosine is? Not me!
