The Performance

Friday night was SO hectic. I was almost out of breath. I was tired as well. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me start at the beginning.

Well, first I had to get ready (which was almost an adventure in it's self.) Then I had to get all of my music and both of my instruments ready. then get all of the kids in the van along with my stuff. An drive to where we were having the performance.

That is the sum-up of the drive TO the performance. The actual thing is what was hectic.

Kara and I went in, and Set up. While everyone else was practicing. Practice a little with the orchestras, then walk behind the stage over to the other side, only to practice with the choir this time. After that we had to walk back to the other side, behind the stage, to play with the orchestra for the REAL performance. Then almost right after we had finished on that side, we hurried over to the choir side, using behind the stage for transportation, to perform over there. We were able to stay on the choir side for the ceremony, then we did one more choir piece, then literally ran to the other side to be able to perform for the graduates to leave. Then we played two more pieces of music before we were able to pack up.

Then we were done. *long and tired sigh* We don't have to do it again until next year. Which, I know, will come only to soon. The only thing that I was thinking of at that moment was: "It's over! I can get out of these heels soon!"

Well, better go find something productive to do. Hope to be hearing some comments soon.
