does anyone have any recommendations for a habit/routine planner that actually works good? i got really excited for fabulous but I soon realized you couldn't add certain habits/make custom ones without paying for it

I'mma be real with y'all, I'm trying to be more active on here but its my first semester in college for Music Education and i'm failing four classses, dropping two, and I have a recital (despite freshmen being not allowed to do a recital their first semester unless you are a performance major) in like five weeks and I haven't even picked the pieces to play. I'm just not doing well mentally and lowkey feeling like a failure. Like I got a full ride to my dream uni and despite everything I'm doing, I'm still failing

I'm really just taking 2020 raw, unprotected. I don't have a nintendo switch so i can't play ac and I don't even have a dnd group to keep me going. I'm just. Doing a line of pure, uncut 2020 right down the kitchen counter.

I'm so glad that I'm not alone!! I'm in the process of making flash cards so I can study them so I don't forget! I've broken terms into categories to make it less overwhelming. I've been using Goodwin's High End for tempo, modifiers, & mood markings. But thank you for that website!!! I love how it includes pronouncations!!!! That's one of my biggest struggles with terms and such

I don’t know if it is just me or does anyone else struggle with music terms sometimes? Like I have basically no background in any foreign language so 99% of the time I don’t know what score markings mean

Help a highschool graduate out?

Hey! It's Melody. As a few of you may already know, I've been homeless off and on for several years now. During this times, I resort to giving guitar lessons and gigs as a source of income while looking for a job that would hire a minor however, thanks to COVID-19, I'm unable to both work or give lessons (I'm trying to move online but I don't have equipment). Please, if you are able, please consider donating to help with gas, food, and college supplies Thank you so much. If you can't help, please just share this! I don't have a GoFundMe because I am a minor but here's my paypal
