 \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

- Sister Winter (Oct21)
	- recorded 95%...homework be damned
	- added echo on a flute part! cool! should I "reverb" everything else too??
		- Sample rate of 0.0175 seconds takes a while to calculate and apply...

- All Creation Sing (Joy To The World) (Oct22)
	- fully recordded...homework be damned again
	- bass boost is my friend...

- I Celebrate The Day (Oct 28)
	- too many takes...
	- I wish I had a piano

- O Come, O Come Emmanuel (Nov 9)
	- after weeks of lacking inspiration...

- God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen (Nov 9)
	- it continues!

- The First Noel (Nov 9)
	- time for class...

- Go Tell It On The Mountain (Nov 14)
	- snapped Scotia's G-string in this song...how is it possible to snap an Elixir?

- O Holy Night (Nov 21)
	- damn straight I hit that [note]

- O Come All Ye Faithful (Nov 21)
	- the great thing about music is...you can play and sing however you want (in this case, Capo 2)
	- the great thing about worship is...it can be a very personal, intimate moment with God

- Final touches (Nov 22)
	- last minute leveling (this is something I'll need to work on in the future)
	- MP3 tagging
	- eventually uploading and...letting people know
	- if you're reading this, bravo! you have earned a trophy/achievement!
