Don't suck! Don't suck! DON'T SUCK! BLOW! 2003-09-29 - 12:35 p.m.
Well, I was still in an annoyingly good mood this morning, until I got to wind ensemble. Mostly. The thing I just don't understand is, why can't we play Toccata Marziale? This is easy stuff. High school music maybe. This group has amazing individual players. I guess therein lies the difficulty- turning a bunch of individuals into an ensemble.
Yeah. Sorry. I won't play band director any more. Hehe. I have no desire to go to Texas. ;)
Oh, yeah. Funny thing happened yesterday- my mom brought me a nice black concert outfit of reasonably un-old lady-like old lady clothes from her store. She asked me if the skirt fit and I lifted up the shirt to show her how it fit around the waist.
Sarah: "Does it look like it fits?"
Sarah's Mom: "I think so -- hey what is that?!"
Hehe. So a year and a half after the fact, my mom, she who thinks "body piercings are gross" and she who expressed this opinion to my sister in a long drawn-out spiel, has found out about my pierced belly button. And she'll just have to deal with it won't she? :-P That was my college graduation present to myself. It's not like my parents gave me a car for me to not be able to drive or anything. Or a flute. :-P
Heh. Anyway, I still am in a good mood. Ack! Make it stop! Well, off to practice now. Maybe my lack of practicing over the weekend and consequent sucking will snap me out of it. :)
