Music Days
Our orchestra held its concert today at the theatre today. I forogt how small the back is on stage. But of course, I had enough percussion equipment to fill up the whole entire stage. Our concert went pretty good. A few guessed tempo changes on some songs but all around my timpanis stayed in tune and I didn't trip over a single thing! Ha! I only tripped after the concert. Which was embarrassing.
One of my friends in the orchestra has agreed to give me FREE cello lessons! I am so excited! All I have to do is find a cello. Perhaps I shall make one....But once I have learned the cello I can say I can play a string instrument, a woodwind instrument, percussion, and...a saxophone instrument. Tenor sax really doesn't count for anything. All I need now is a brass and I'm all set up to be a band director when I get out of college. But first I need to make it out of high school.
Speaking of high school. I hate it. It's so boring I want to scream. I'm trying to refrain from skipping half the week. I mean, who wouldn't? Sometimes I really hate routine. Especially when it is as boring as high school. I can't wait until my music districts start picking up this spring. At least that gives me something to focus on. But after high school.....
College. My brother loves it. He constantly teases me about still having to go. Ugh. It's only a year away. I can hold out for a year...surely? I wonder what I should major in college. All the orchestra members think I should major in music. I don't know if I should or not. I mean, I know I can play several hundred different instruments in due time...but....do I want to major in something like that? I'm thinking of computer sciences. But my brother is a computer science major. I'm sick of doing what he does. I mean, heck, we almost have the same friends save for my crazy ones and we work at the same place. How sad is that? Well...it's great that my brother and I have such a close relationship. I don't know what I'm going to do when he leaves for Arizona. That's going to really mess me up. Oh well...we all need to grow up sometime.
