"October" is one of twelve piano pieces Tchaikovsky released in 1876, each themed on a particular month and published consecutively in a music magazine. This is my favorite (slowly learning it), though "June" (Barcarolle) and "December" (Troika) are more well known.
As if I had nothing else to do, NaNoWriMo started a few days ago. Oh, yes, this year I joined! I figured this was my last year to find time for it. Speed writing is out of my comfort zone, for sure, but that's not a bad thing; in fact, it's good.
Would you believe it, fall quarter is already drawing to an end. Classes have been intensely frustrating, but now midterms are over things are better. I'm eagerly anticipating moving ahead.
The other thing I should do is start planning next year's reading. This was not the best year for books read. My reading list grew exponentially and my read list only logarithmically. You see the problem. (FYI: Fanda is hosting a History Reading Challenge for 2014!) One year of slacking is ok, but next year I've got to read more.
That's what I'm up to. How about you?
