Alright kids, I know, I'm really lacking as of late, so here's something that happened to me today. Please enjoy.

So toady I came back from being sick for a few days and I walked into the choir room second period and was bombarded with hugs from my classmates and 'You're alive's and I got in there a little bit early and I guess my choir director hadn't seen me yet. And so I sat and waited for class to start. And so a little into class he was looking around the room right before we started doing warm ups and I waved at him and said "Hi, Mr. K" and he stopped playing the piano upon seeing me. He like slammed his hands down on the keys quickly and then took them away.

So then a little later he was handing out sheet music and I walk up to him and said "Hehe... speaking of sheet music... can I get the sheet music I missed while I was sick?" and he nodded. So we walked over to his little table with his binder and the sheet music and all that and handed me it and I said "Jeez Mr. K, you looked spooked earlier, when I said Hi... like you had seen a ghost." I said.

He looked back at me with a smirk and said "Well that's because I thought you were a whole different person and I was wondering what a stranger was doing in my class." I pouted at him.

"I'm not a stranger, Mr. K, I've known you for 2 Years."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then, I had show choir, and it was exactly how it usually is. you know... mild havoc, lots of singing and dancing because we are a distinguished show choir... Right... well anyway, I was talking to my choir director about if show choir would continue next term or not

and he said "that's the goal."

I smiled and said "Oh thank goodness. I dunno if I could handle losing both choir and show choir next term." And so he frowned furred a brow.

"You aren't in my Chamber next term?" He asked me. I shook my head.

"No. I haven't even auditioned. And besides that, I can't convince my counselor to let me get it next term." I explained. He nodded because he was aware who the Senior counselor is.

"You didn't hear it from me," he said while looking around cautiously "but I've had some struggles with that counselor so I understand."

I smirked.

"What are your classes next term?" he asked me. I shrugged. (Personal note; this is probably the longest conversation I've had with him ever in the history of my choir experience, so I'm counting this one in the minor accomplishment category.)

"I know that I have English 12 and Gov/Econ. Those two are what's left of me to complete for graduation." I said. He nodded and I had a feeling he wanted me to continue. "Er... and then I have two electives... 3D Animation and... one other random one that I'm forgetting... (CERAMICS AVERY YOU ABSOLUTE FLOOR BOARD)"

He nodded again.

"Well," He said "I'll certainly let you audition for Chamber. But you're going to have to deal with the schedule stuff."

I froze. I almost stopped breathing. If I had water, I would have sucked it down the wrong tube, spit it out, or pulled that one move that Violet did in Incredibles 2.

YEAH THAT THING!!

"Uh-" I stuttered "Uh... What?"

That was the end of the conversation for a little bit. Then we did our Show choir thing then we took a break. So I asked My choir director;

"Hey so... When... when would this audition be? Like when's your preference?" I asked. He thought a moment the way he usually does... you know...

His signature Thinking face.

Then he says after a minute of thinking "Tomorrow, Or next week?"

I was freaking out on the inside. On the outside I kept my composure and let out a shaky breath and nodded. Then our first break was over. We did our Show choir thing again and then took another break. During this break, I approached him with a small smile.

"Erm... Hi... Me again... So um... what kind of music would I be auditioning with? Do you have a specific song you wanted me to sing or is it singers choice?"

(At this point, I thought I might have started to become an annoyance... but if I was, he didn't show it, he just kept right on answering all my questions.)

He said with a small smile "Singers Choice."

I wanted to panic. I don't have any sheet music for any of the songs I know.

"Oh... Okay... Thanks" I said with a nod. I walked away. Our second break ended, and we did our Show choir thing and had our third and final break. This time I just walked up to him.

"Uh... Would auditions take place during or after school?" I asked, him softly. At first I didn't think he heard me. I thought I had been too quiet and would have to repeat myself.

But after a second he said "After school or during intervention. Depends what day."

I nodded. "Okay... And um... how would you want me to sing it? Bring my own music? Accapella? Bring my ukulele? I mean... I can do a lot of different options-"

"Probably Accapella." He said. My heart dropped. I don't know if he could tell, maybe my face gave it away, I dunno. I'm a very Shy singer... so Accapella is... not my strongest... you know... suit per-say.

"O-Oh... Okay... Cool." I replied with the confidence of a scared puppy. And that was the end of our last break. So we finished up with our Show Choir stuff and all that, and I stayed a little bit after to confirm a day for auditioning.

"So If you're going to do it next week, It probably will have to be 2nd or 3rd period intervention, most likely 3rd because I want to work with Choir 2nd." he said. I nodded quietly. "Just make sure your third period teacher is okay with it because its always teachers preference first."

I nodded again.

"That shouldn't be a problem." I said "My third period teacher is actually quite fond of me so I don't foresee that being an issue..." I paused and thought a moment, "Actually a lot of my teachers end up quite fond of me I think... Er... at least I like to think they are...," I paused again, " I like to think you are fond of me too"

He raised his eye brow at me.

"Er... You are aren't you...I- I mean, I wouldn't want to assume-"

"Of course I am. You know I love you." He replied in a teasing slight manner. I stopped talking. I had to think a second.

You see, I've know this teacher for nearly 3 years now, so it's not like I'm a stranger. And I've always made sure to say hello to him when ever I see him. And he has given me a hug, so he doesn't dislike me as one of his students. And I've always voiced that he was my favorite teacher at my school if I ever walked by him on campus. Although... I was afraid it annoyed him.

So of course I know what he meant. That was like how I say I love you to all my gen-z friends that I don't think I could have gotten through high school without. Like my pals from Drama, or Choir.

But still... It caught me off guard.

So I guess I need to be a little more careful in the way I ask questions.

That's all from me! 

Thanks for reading!
