i am royally f*cked...

so i have a recording session today, starting right now to be exact, with one of my school's ensembles... and i can't make it out there in time (just missed bus, roomates out)... so yeah, i can't make it over there. and i know this is gonna bring my grade down, and my conductor isn't going to be pleased about this, at all. so yeah, i'm fucked... time to post some more pictures...

 

I've never heard of a musician being on time. Just change your name to Sly and go with the flow.

 

but this is beyond being on time... the recording is only until 3.20... there's no way in hell i'm making it by then,

 

that sucks... did you try calling any of them and telling them whats going on? maybe one of them can pick you up

 

too late for that also... it's 15 minutes into the session right now... no one is gonna come out here. the best i can do is go to tonight's session, have an apology ready, and go from there...

 

can you call a cab?

 

what i'm saying is, at this point (even when i first posted), i wouldn't get there in time anyway. the session is over at 3.20... even if i had called once i posted (around 2.30), i wouldn't have got there until about 3, 3.10 anyways... oh well, shit happens.

 

That sucks. I'm sorry miami. Hopefully the conductor won't be too pissed...

 

i'm writing him a long email right now...

 

keep us posted man.

 

ok, email is sent... so i'll be talking to him either through email or when i see him later on tonight. we'll see how this goes...

it just sucks how much more responsibility you have when you're a college student, versus being a high school student. back in HS, if i missed a rehearsal, it wasn't a big deal at all... there were no major consequences. here in college, i know the professors on more of a personal basis, so i actually feel extrememly bad for missing out on this. and plus i know that my grade will be affected...

 

well he's a great teacher... and plus he's someone i wanna know after i graduate... so yeah, i do like him.

 

fuck off man... i'm really not in the mood for kid stuff right now.

 

so get this...

i go to the second recording session, talked to him personally and he apologized to me!? he said that at first, when he saw that i wasn't there he was really pissed. but then he went back and checked his email, and he told me he was so sorry for being angry. he realized that anger is such a selfish emotion. he even apologized to me in front of the whole ensemble. this guy is by far the best conductor i've had to date.

 

Taxie!
