chu_totoroA number of good things happened in the past couple of days, one of which being my AWESOME NEW DESK and my room suddenly becoming a lot cleaner because it's gigantic and everything actually fits on it... and it's all wood, but not those flimsy little sheets of constructed wood, nice, thick, real rounded wood and *___* I am in love with it. I actually like working at my desk now, y'know?
Aside from that, of course, lots of other things. But am too busy to record in detail right now. However, will say that Cello Congress went through a hell of a lot of issues the last week. Let's put it this way:
WEDNESDAY 3/26
First rehearsal @ WVC
-pretty fun, lasted ~3 hours, a bit over
THURSDAY 3/27
Second rehearsal @ the Korean church, put into sectionals
Sectionals end, setup for full group rehearsal
Mrs. Kim comes in and gives her commitment speech and cancels the whole thing
-we are all in shock
-Christine has to call her mom because she's out getting food for the group & doesn't know what happened
General misery
FRIDAY 3/28
CPYO rehearsal 6:30-9:30 as usual
(*meanwhile, SHS is having CMEA, which I was at &so missed all of the below)
Mr. Kim calls a meeting
-Mrs. Kim doesn't know about it beforehand
-every single one of the sixteen arrive with their parents
An hour or two talk between Mrs. Kim and various parents, general misery on all sides
Students send two representatives in to promise to commit and give 120% and, wut, rehearse to 3 am if she wants us to, anything if she gives us a second chance
-first representative starts crying, second takes over
-second representative starts crying, third takes over
-everyone starts crying and it's a general mess
-Mrs. Kim (crying) decides to give us a second chance
SATURDAY 3/29
Students go watch Jae Young's solo performance w/Mrs. Kim, 8 pm
3rd rehearsal @ WVC, 10 pm
-manager guy kicks us out of WVC
-massive relocation
3rd rehearsal @ the Korean church, 10:30 pm
-pretty good, about 2.5 hours
-Mrs. Kim (somewhat emotionally unstable from lack of sleep) despairs halfway through because some of us are talking (we were trying to count the rests) and walks out, near verge of hysteria/canceling again
-everyone is on perfect behavior for remainder of rehearsal. no one dares to... breathe, for chrissake
SUNDAY 3/30
Students/parents schedule sectionals (w/o Mrs. Kim), 6 pm
4th rehearsal @ the Korean church, 7 pm
-went fairly well, about 3 hours
-got more music!
-we really need to practice
---and remember to wear contacts/glasses
Yap. There's also poetry (National Poetry Month has started!), we're starting our panel for other English classes tomorrow, speaking of which I really have to go work on the prompt books so I'll leave this as is for now.
edit: oh, happy april fools I s'pose. nearly forgot.
didn't see any good jokes really. everyone's too busy with work and stuffs. though I conned a friend into thinking I had no keys and he had no ride home. only for about 5 seconds lawl.
mmmm sleep.
