I hate it when teachers from OTHER music crap butt in. DX
For example, today we were doing some stupid counting exercises, and the cellos kept cracking up because for our part, we had mostly the offbeat, so all we had to do was say, "Te, te, te, te" or "Te two te, te four te" though it was actually kind of maddening. Very monotinous. Well, we were halfway through one, and the BAND teacher, who had suggested the stupid excersizes, thought we weren't taking it seriously enough. So he's all like; 'You guys think you're good enough? What did you make last year in UIL sight reading? Two? Anyone happy with that? Thought not. You AREN'T good enough. And unless you put more effort into this(blah blah blah) you're going to do the same or worse this year!" Yeah. Nice job Mr. Band Teacher. Way to shoot down our esteem. No one said another word through that whole lesson unless they had to. Talk about killing a mood. The funny moment in that was the 'te' thing.

The music teachers at our school are all "best buddy!" and help each other out. Sorta. The band and choir teachers come in and help us out sometimes, anyways. And apparently, the administration at my school wants to cut the fine arts! You do NOT cut out the fine arts! Apparently, math's waaay better than learning fun musical/dramatic/artistic abilities. At least the French teacher doesn't agree. She goes to all the concerts and plays and stuff. Anyways, funny moment.., during math, as usual. One kid's all "Wanna be extra nice?" as the teacher was passing out the tests, and "Yo, Homey" (as one kid calls him XD) rolled his eyes. "Want me to give you all the answers to the test by doing them in class together?" And the kid replied "Actually, yeah." Plus the sign above the trashcan: "Hey PERSON ABOUT TO THROW A PLASTIC BOTTLE AWAY! (Yes, all caps like that...) Stop clogging up our landfills and driving the price of oil up! Just put the bottle next to the trashcan and it will be taken care of. " No lie, that's what it says. Mr. F's pretty hilarious at times. Like his calling the bomb threat the "Parking Lot FreezeFest". XD

Yes, another funny Sweeney Todd related moment. Well, I was up in the library with Chrono and Midnight, and we were looking at the Sweeney Todd pics on the official website(I was shocked the school computers didn't block it!). So we're all lookin' at this one where Sweeney's standing to the side of his chair and glaring at the camera with his 'I'm gonna kill you now' look. And, well, here's what happened. Me: Wow, he looks kinda creepy in that one. Midnight: Yeah, he looks p***ed off. Chrono: Wow, he looks trustworthy! Me next! ^-^ Everyone: *Laughs*
And this was last night when I first visited the site. I'd pulled up this other one where he looks REALLY mad, only he isn't glaring at the camera this time and it only shows, like, half of his upper body. Nice pic though. Me: Hey mom, check this one out. He looks REALLY mad in this one! Mom: He looks ready to kill someone. Me: -.- Mom. It's a movie about a serial killer barber. Of COURSE HE LOOKS LIKE HE'S READY TO KILL SOMEONE! XD

This happened shortly after the TNBC moment in orchestra a few days ago.
So we're playing the Polar Express. During the "Hot Chocolate" part, the second chair (yeah, the one who didn't know why Making Christmas was part of our music XD) gets up and walks over to the cymbals, tapping them with her bow along with the bass part. And then the concertmistress' brother gets up and claps the cymbals together. Then the violin frowns. "It was funny when I did it, but you were too loud. I can't wait to see you get screwed by Reynolds when he comes in here." Yeah, the band teacher flips out when people play the percussion instruments, and he was right next door, teaching guitar at the moment.

I forgot this one. Also from in the library earlier.
Okay, so we're all watching the trailer, and so Chrono's all like; Chrono: Johnny Depp's so freakin' tallented. He plays a pirate, Willy Wonka, that one guy in Corpse Bride... isn't he batman too? Me: *Laughs* No! Chrono: How do you know that? 'Nanananananananana nanananananananana JOHNNY DEPP! Johnny Depp! Nanananananananana nanananananananana SWEENEY TODD! Sweeney Todd! Me and Midnight: *Burst out laughing* Chrono: It could happen!

^I'm sure Michael Keaton was the Batman in Tim's movies. I just know that because he also played Beej. So. I was lurking on Quizilla not long ago, and came across this, said by alana.monster.: XD I totally LOL-ed when I read that.

Well...lately, me and Midnight have been hanging out in the library so we can listen to Sweeney Todd stuff. Well, I almost did a backflip when I saw they added clips. Anyways, there are two funny moments. 1) Pretty basic. I click a clip, it happens to almost ALL be about something to do with the judge, and Midnight had to keep me from attacking the computer. Damn judge. I hate him. I really really hate him. 2) Some guy at a computer said it looked like a hippy movie and Midnight had to hold me back so I wouldn't try to kill HIM! XD

It was sort of funny today in orchestra when the concertmistress was screaming. She was all "AHHHHH! PERFECT!" and "FOLLOW MY BEAT, MORONS!" and "JUST BECAUSE WE'RE PRACTICING SOMETHING DOESNT GIVE THE REST OF YOU THE RIGHT TO TALK!" That and just screaming and laughing. And when her brother was getting a drink, she said "The pass is right HERE, buddo," as he passed her, and kicked it towards him (our hall passes are bright orange dog toys...). But she meant to say "bucko". She was laughing about that for about five minutes as she conducted. And her conducting consists of waving a marker around like she's trying to swat a fly. LOL

I kinda know what a concertmistress is but could you explain it more fully to me? Umm...Well I gto home from school today and and I find my dad as a BIG huge thing on one of his fingers. Appreantly he chopped off part of his index finger. And he is all trying to make it seem like it is all fake. It is not really funny buy I felt like it needed to be said. i had another one but i can't remember it.
