18 Days Later

Eighteen days after my last blog post here I am! With, of course, nothing to report. Life meanders on as usual, bringing it a plethora of... well... nothing that exciting really. It was a decent day. Food was good at brunch after church today. Tasha and I are as in love as ever. We will be home the weekend before Valentine's day so that Saturday I am hoping to take her out and give her the presents I have obtained for her. This week is going to be a little insane and maddening. Band here at Olivet is quite idiotic, to be polite. How about I be more specific. Band Winter Showcase is idiotic.

They never give us a scheduele or let us know when we are supposed to be practicing and when they do it is about a half hour before practice is starting and I am like "Well I already have plans" and they are like "well you have to be there" and I am like "Well I can't be" and they are like "but we told you" and I am like "Yeah a minute ago." Or how about this situation "Why weren't you at practice earlier today?" "We had practice?" "Yeah-why weren't you there?" "We had practice?" "Yeah-why weren't you there?" "I didn't know about it." "Well you should have been there." Yeah that is how it goes here. It kind of sucks. I am perfectly ok with concert band because were were emailed the entire schedule for the entire semester. I am putting an emphasis on THE ENTIRE SEMESTER. So apparently we have practice from 8pm-12am every night this week. Wait, what? When did that happen? Know how many practices the choir had for their thing and it was hilarious? TWO. That's right. TWO. Apparently we suck so bad we have to practice a lot. And memorizing music for something that isn't even on the field? What bull crap is that? Everyone is a better performer when they have the music. Trust me. I KNOW. UGH. It just really sucks and is full of bull crap and yeah. At most I will get a lot of reading done because I am only in two of like 10-15 performances. And I have to be there the WHOLE time. What happens to my academics? I have a lot of stuff going on this week. A lot of research to do and all that jazz really sucks.

Yep, that was quite the long rant. Basically sums up how I feel about band here sometimes. Oh well. I should be off to bed. I have an 8:30 class tomorrow morning. Woo... woo... Ok, goodnight everyone. Thanks for reading.
