Monday Music Madness

100 kids from Band, Choir, & Orchestra at Main Event Entertainment Complex - I must be CRAZY!!! That was Monday Music Madness - bowling, billiards, laser tag, arcade games, food, etc., etc., etc. Plus, all the drama of 13-14 yr old girls and boys......At least I was home by 8:30p.
Right now, my task is quite a challenge - I have to shake some trees and find a few more kids to join choir - especially the guys. As of today, I have right at 100 kids signed up for choir. I did not meet my personal goal of 150 students. I am very disappointed. Before May, I would like to pick up 20 more students. But that is not going to be an easy task.

It is official - I need Spring Break. I was not motivated to teach today at all - I hate when I feel this way b/c it's hard to shake it off and move on. Of course, I never give my students a break of any sort - they rehearse EVERYDAY without fail. Today, my advanced girls - we just talked about nothing for 45 minutes. That happened in 3-4 of my classes - idk what was going on, but I didn't feel with it. I needed sunshine and all we had was rain.

March comes in like a lion and out a lamb....well, the lion part is definitely right!
