"You know those little squares with the shit in them?"
SUBJECT: my roommate talking about those ghiradelli chocolate squares. she makes them sound so delicious.
I joined the UW Piano Performers Club. On Saturday I went to my first meeting. In the email they told me that everyone in the club just puts on a mini-recital for each other. Nothing hardcore and super casual. So I was pretty excited to go.
Ok.
All that changed when I got there.
It was me, two guys, and an old man who wasn't even a student. He didn't even play piano! He played the trumpet!! And one guy played music from his favorite anime film! And they both had higher pitched voices than me!!! And I only had one piece prepared so they made me play it twice!!!! And then they told me if I came back to another meeting they would make me an officer!!! BUT I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK!!! I CAN'T GO BACK!!!
It was so weird. The moment I walked in they asked if I was Christina. And I was like. Oh hey! how are you guys doing? and the club president was like, "So you want to bump up your resume?" I was so confused. So I asked him, "What do you mean?" and he said, "Why else would you join this club?" CAUSE I LIKE PIANO YOU IDIOT! i don't get it , i'm not in high school anymore. I mean, yea back in high school I did a lot of things JUST for my resume but a good amount of it was stuff that i liked. But they just couldn't seem to understand that concept of doing things for your own pleasure. And they also couldn't understand why I left southern California. ("Haven't you seen the movies and tv? It's such a magical place!") They wouldn't leave me alone. Between each song it was like..."So you left San Diego?"
I'M GOING TO GO SEE LUPE FIASCO ON WEDNESDAY!!!!
