44 Thoughts During Choir Rehearsal

Oh choir. There's nothing else like singing with a bunch of other people, harmonizing, making music with your voices. It's not as popular as it used to be, but something a unique breed of people still enjoy. Those usually tend to be the singers, but we don't care. We're just there to sing. But the process of pulling off a great ensemble is more than meets the eye. And you think a lot during rehearsals that people who don't sing probably don't know. But I'm here to share that with you.

1. Oooohkay this song should be fun.

2. Actually I hate this. What is this?

3. Not solfege again...

4. What is this note. Do? no wait it's Mi?

5. I'm just going to mumble the words but sing the right note.

6. Wow we sound terrible right now. The concert should be great.

7. Oh yes we're moving on to that other piece we've been working on for weeks.

8. Whoever is right behind me keeps singing the wrong note at measure 43.

9. Wrong. Again.

10. Can't she hear herself singing it wrong?

11. Oh cool someone asked to go over that part so it can be fixed.

12. Ah, so much better.

13. Oooohkay what is this rhythm.

14. Sopranos just crashed and burned on that section.

15. Lol. WHAT am I singing right now?

16. Why aren't we stopping to fix that. We sounded like dying geese.

17. We sound like dying geese right now.

18. I don't remember this part. Is this new?

19. Back to the beginning? It better be to fix everything.

20. YES. Altos have to fix their problems first. Sopranos get to sit down. Hallelujah.

21. Oh wow they sound way better than we do.

22. We're going to be that section in the concert.

23. Our turn. Yayyy.

24. WOW I am singing way too loud.

25. Am I always that loud?

26. Okay now I can't even hit that note because I'm trying to sing so quiet.

27. How many minutes let of class?

28. I have to pee but I know I'll be in trouble if I ask to go.

29. "You have plenty of time to use the restroom before the beginning of class."

30. Does that girl have gum in her mouth?

31. How can you possibly chew gum and sing?

32. Sweet we're moving on to the next piece.

33. Ah yes it's in german.

34. These words are so fun to pronounce.

35. Was she cutting our section off on our part or what was that?

36. Okay now I'm confused.

37. Need. Clearer. Hand. Gestures.

38. Our pianist is so talented. #Blessed.

39. Sopranos just nailed that section. Yes.

40. What homework do I have tonight?

41. At least I never have choir homework.

42. Is it time to go yet?

43. Yes class is over.

44. Wait no, now I have to go to calculus. Merh.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
