Yesterday was a very strange day. I got up at 3:30 am to do homework, and then went straight to work. When I came home I lost my keys, so I had to go to school without having the key to the carillon practice room. This becomes important later on in the day. At 3:00 p I had studio, in which I played, and since I did not play very well, I had a breakdown and just went home. I was supposed to come back to campus by 7:20 to play the carillon prelude before going to the Van Cliburn contest. I woke up in my bed at 7:10 and so I was 20 minutes late for my recital. On the way there I rear-ended a girl. I drove up to the tower, only to realize that I did not have the key to get in. Karen had one however, and she let me in so I could play for the last five minutes. The rest of the night was uneventful. I did homework until 1 am, so I was awake for almost 24 hours, if you don't count the hour that I was asleep when I should have been at the tower.
