For the past two days my choir has been doing the annual 'Pops Concert'. It's basically our fun raiser event where the concert is filled with more solos and up to beat songs instead of classical music.
Friday's concert was pretty stressful though (when isn't a concert stressful?). I had to be at the Glassford really early, pretty much right after school. After school I literally raced to the bank to deposit my latest paycheck, get some food (Chinese Food from Panda Express~!), I run home to grab my outfit and things I would need for the concert itself and then return go to Glassford which is right next to my high school. I helped set up things, fold some programs, write out the program for all the choirs/solo people, and other stuff.
All that took up the time until the concert was about to start. I got to help in the audience, get them situated if needed, and make sure everyone could fit if it was a full house, which it wasn't.
But in the cafeteria, it was chaos. Everyone had to sit in the cafeteria to leave room for the audience so they had a projector set so that we could still watch the concert. But people wouldn't shut up. Mainly my choir cause their a bunch of immature people (not all but majority of them), and because it's such a big group of people as well.
After the concert I stayed after with Katie to make sure that the dressing rooms were clean, and there wasn't anything left behind, but of course there was. I crashed when I got home, it was such a long day.
Saturday night though was less stressful. I slept in most of the day an played video games for a few hours. My brother is renting a 'Tales' game so I thought it would be fun to play which it is. But I got up and washed the dishes before getting ready for the concert. This time I brought my notebook to make more notes and etc. for my two novels. I feel really good about these novels too, I just haven't started writing them yet though >.>a;
Most of the night went by quicker and I think because we had the concert the night before made it so much less stressful. After the concert we helped clean up the place and put all the sound equipment into the trucks to take back over to the high school. Though when I was helping on trying to take apart a stereo from it's stand with two other guys, Paul and Mitch; I was pulling down on the stand that was connected to the stereo while Paul and Mitch were lifting up... they pretty much lifted me along with the stereo because the stand wouldn't come loose. -___- It felt weird being lifted up... I honestly don't really think myself as the type you can just lift up because I'm so tall and not small. @_@
Katie, Mike, Mikiki, and I went for ice cream afterwards and met up with Emily and her boyfriend, Brendon. I forgot my debt card at home so I didn't have any ice cream and Katie only had three dollars, Mike had no money (surprise, surprise -___- GET A JOB MIKE!), and Micky didn't have any money on her cause she didn't know we were going to do something after the concert. It was a lot of fun though, and Melissa came by later in the night after Brendon and Emily had left.
But basically it was a great night. And the Pops Concert is finally over. One more to go.
