So today was Day 1 of BYSO retreat, which is totally not a retreat. It's like normal rehearsal and free pizza. However, the concert hall is so miserably hot that you need pizza after like an hour, not 3. And worst of all, I barely played. So I was falling asleep but we were playing Mahler so I kept getting rudely awakened by loud trumpets and horns and such. It was rather unpleasant.
And on top of all that, I seriously did not need to be there. Well, technically I did, but I played very little and what I played really didn't matter. But see, we were supposed to be done at 4. Except that Fed decided at 3:50 that he still needed to work on the Cosi fan Tutte overture and 2 arias. So we did the overture, which I don't play in, and the first aria, which I don't play in. By this time it's 4:30. But he persists and I finally play the first note that actually matters at the lovely hour of 4:35. Wonderful... 35 minutes after we were supposed to get freedom. But no, I'm not bitter. But anyways, I'm sorry for being such a whiner. But it was a rather yucky day. And now my mom won't even take me shopping now. BOOOO! Tomorrow will be better...I hope.
