I am constantly reminded of how lucky I am to have good people in my life. Especially @AmanDuhhh .
I need to keep my head on straight and push through this difficult semester so I can work on keeping everyone happy, and not just surviving to survive.
Today was a productive day indeed. I spent most of it at work. For those that don’t know, I tech at two indoor percussion (WGI) lines. Tate Indoor Percussion Ensemble and Solace Indoor Percussion Ensemble. With Tate I’m the Assistant director and tech the Cymbal line/write their book, and with Solace I help tech the cymbals and whatever else I can do. Tate High had a full day of rehearsal [10am to 7pm] and it was a pretty productive one. We spent most of our day working on re-setting and cleaning drill/music and the other part playing with the front ensemble.
After all that, I went to meet up with my roommates at the director of Tate’s indoor program’s house and we had some lumpia, made by his wife. Life is good.
I really need to practice my saxophone a good bit this week. Ugh, I’m not stressing it, more than I have to get ahold of my saxophone. My car ran out of gas so I had to leave it in front of an empty house until I get some money to put gas in it this week. I really need Tate to pay me for January so I can have money. At this rate it looks like they’ll be paying me for 2 months. Oh well.
Life has been pretty good to me. Yeah, I'm broke until classes start back up in January, but I won't complain since I'll be making money from teaching indoor percussion, Pep Band and teaching saxophone lessons at high schools. Getting dat papah.
Major updates:
Got my date for boot camp [Marine Corps]: Sept 17th, 2011.
Graduate college this summer! I'm excited.
Planning on dropping for a professional saxophone after I get out of boot camp.
This damn day. People pissing me off, but I've gotta keep posi. For real.
Also, I'm gonna keep plugging myself for a bit, get used to it:
Anyone who is interested, I am stating to Vlog my journey towards being a Marine Corps Musician. I'm going to update pretty regularly and answer any questions I can via video.
