Zombies in Music Theory

"A change of mode or MUTATION, but not a modulation, occurs when music moves between two parallel keys." Zombies. It's the end of the world...Actually it simply seems that way in Music Theory land. Modes and modulations seems to be entering our classroom through their homemade doors. (That's a Theory joke- not well made but still funny for this poor insomniac!) But seriously, walking around campus it truly seems like an infection has occurred. Symptoms: Bags under eyes, sleeping in class, coming into class late, shabby clothes, lack of cleanliness, coughing, sneezing, over-drinking of caffeinated drinks- i.e. Monster, 5 Hour Energy, Dr. Pepper. Some call this college but I say it's the zombie apocalypse coming to pass. One day students will no longer make the long trip to the caf. Instead, they will begin eating their roommates and any other living thing that crosses in their way!...Highly unlikely- but a possibility no less.

Anyways, other than the influx of insomniacs in this merry school, the weather here has been quite interesting. Last Friday and Saturday the highs were in the upper seventies. Yesterday, the high was in the forties...Is this state really THAT bipolar? Besides the weather though, life is going pretty fine. Classes are hard but thats normal. The caf is...interesting but thats normal. Normal seems to be the norm around here. Oh, and by the way, Diction is horrible. But then again, thats also normal.

It is 11:00- do you know where your children are? I should hope so because as my mother always says "Nothing good happens after midnight!" So...I HAVE A WHOLE HOUR TO RUN FREE!!! :)

Consider these thoughts well. Keep singing and God bless!
