It's a great big universe, and we're all really puny....
So I just checked my e-mail and in it was a dreaded e-mail telling me that I did not make any ensembles here at Blair. That just goes to show the fact that I have a lot of work ahead of me. Its really a slap in the face, that I need to crack down and get my stuff done. That I need to practice. Music is no longer just a class that's going to meet once a day, this will be my life and that if I don't realize that I need to put effort into my playing, otherwise no one will want me. What do you get when a music major doesn't practice?! Sam Schneider not making it into an ensemble.
Well in the words of the great Andrew Bregman, "This aggression will not stand, man!" Actually, that quote has very little to do with the situation. I'm not going to go beg to be put in an ensemble because it won't work here. I just need to go and practice until my lips bleed. It's like during my auditions to get into schools, I need to make my horn my best friend again.
No more goofing off. I'm going to go to dinner, get my homework out of the way, party a bit tonight, and then practice my horn first thing tomorrow. Yes, that sounds like being a slacker, but really it will work. I'll be in ensembles next semester, just you wait and see!
Adios.
