Okay, so I survived my first class and clarinet lesson here in London.
The class is "Empire and Decolonization" which seems interesting enough. I don't feel that I got a lot of history in high school, especially European history. Perhaps zero. Anyways, once this is underway, I think I shall enjoy it. I already have a book from the library to read that our professor wrote. Note: Classes here are 2.75 hours in length and meet only once a week. That will be the biggest adjustment I think.
My clarinet lesson was fine. The teacher, Janet, had me play some scales and basic stuff just to get a feel for my sound and what not and then we dove right into music. I feel a bit bleh since I haven't been taking proper lessons since early October, but hopefully these lessons will help me find some focus and make some real progress. I think we'll get along just fine.
I took a picture of a High Kensington St. underground platform just to share.
