Progress

As I have been getting settled in our new home, I have been taking some steps to start accomplishing some of my goals (see mt home page for a full list).

GOAL #1: Make an academic plan to finish my degree.

I had an appointment with the Music Adviser at UNLV.

Long story short, I am waiting to find out which classes will "officially" transfer (which is looking VERY good), and I have figured out that it will probably take 2 years for me to complete a Music Education degree, and possibly 1 to 1.5 years to complete a Performance degree.

Taking into account where I want my musical career to go, I am seriously considering switching to a Flute Performance Degree. This way, I can focus all of my study on the flute, and be a private flute teacher, which is what I really want to do.  I can always get an Education degree later if I decide to do so!

GOAL #3:  Prepare myself to begin teaching flute lessons again.

Getting as degree in Performance will help me toward this goal.

GOAL #10:  Find a means of converting old audio and video tapes to digital format.

I have signed up for a class called "Transferring Sound from Analog to Digital" at the West Las Vegas Arts Center.  The class begins this Wednesday, and I am very excited!
