i love it when students are excited about what they are doing in school. I wish school was just teaching students and not about all the other teachers or administrators.
Unfortunately, since Swiss Days, the Belles have been on vacation. This is really depressing. I need to perform music. Now some people might say I have every opportunity to perform: I have a piano in the middle of my living room. My rebuttal would be: playing the piano doesn't hold the same challenge as performing in a group. Keeping the count, playing the correct notes, playing the dynamics, following the conductor are all new challenges to me. I think I would have really enjoyed being in the marching band for those challenges. I mean really how expensive would a pair of cymbals be to rent?
On the topic of performing, I haven't been in a production for 9 months and I am going through withdrawals. I know that I am not the lead, or even second string, but I like being part of the crowd. I just recently realized that there is another theater company that performs on a different schedule that would allow me to perform on stage and I would still be available for Belles and their winter performances. This would be another challenge since I haven't auditioned for this company so there is a risk involved.
