Dear Powers That Be:

HOW MANY ARTICLES ON MUSIC AND TODDLERS CAN THERE POSSIBLY BE IN THIS DATABASE?

BETTER QUESTION: WHY DO I HAVE TO LOOK OVER 830 SEARCH RESULTS TO FIND, MAXIMUM, TWENTY. DAMN. RELEVANT RESULTS????????

Seriously. I have clicked and re-clicked the "AND" option, yet it still insists on showing me a zillion articles that contain ONLY "music" or "toddlers." Moreover, there is no "NOT" option, and I am really, really, REALLY sick of getting excited and clicking something only to discover that it is YET ANOTHER article about music for toddlers at risk for autism, deafness, or other disabilities. Not that it's not awesome that music can help them, but SERIOUSLY, NOT WHAT I PERSONALLY AM LOOKING FOR AT THE MOMENT.

Also, this library is creepy. And freezing cold.

And I am whiny and petty and can't even feel ashamed of it. WHY DID I DECIDE TO GET MY EDUCATION, WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY?????????????????


Yrs in crankiness,
Lu

P.S. Why do all the promising articles cost money to read?

P.P.S. What the hell does that MEAN, "culturally deaf"??

Because NOTHING is cuter than toddlers making music?

And I don't even like kids, but come ON. NOTHING. Cuter.

:D

It's also really beneficial to their brain rhythms and crap! IF ONLY I COULD FIND THE ARTICLES THAT SAY SO!!!

And alas, I am not a Music Ed major, or else I could totally help you out. >.> And all my Ed friends are in class. G'luck!

They have to come off my database anyway, I'm pretty sure. I appreciate the encouragement, though!
