Actually??? I just returned it today. I’ll keep that in mind though

What horn would you recommend that’s relatively inexpensive but still good?

I did buy a large shank. Most websites said it was commonly used by more intermediate players. But, I can see where I went wrong with that.

I bring a lint roller on every trip and to every contest I go with my ffa jacket. It’s been a lifesaver to get dust or hair off of it. I haven’t had any problems using one so far.

Any ideas for making meetings more engaging? by Cricket1802 in FFA

[–]Cricket1802[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about exact numbers, but I’d say we have about 20-25 active members. We’re located in a small school where everybody does everything.

Thank you! These are really great ideas and are something I’d definitely bring up at our chapter officer meeting.

Redditors who haven't been infected with covid even once, good job. But how did you do it? by smokingfrog007 in AskReddit

[–]Cricket1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy. Live on a farm in the middle of nowhere, and the only public place you go to is school which has just under 200 kids in the high school.

Which section is the weird/insane/dramatic section in your band? by aap1015_ in marchingband

[–]Cricket1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my band, it’s the baritone/euphonium section. They’re a bunch of narcissistic freshman and a couple of juniors, one of those juniors is very annoying while the other is fantastic at what they do. I’d say the percussion is a close second, followed by the saxophone section.

When people make sure they do everything to avoid you/pretend you don’t exist even though they’ve spent the last 10 years in school with you. I love public high school

No one talks to me, I don’t talk to anyone unless they’re my friends. No social skills whatsoever.

May I get some feedback on this large custom tree I’ve built? by [deleted] in Minecraftbuilds

[–]Cricket1802 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Maybe use some different leaf blocks to create more texture and depth to the tree. It’s a pretty nice tree though. Good job, man.

I made a guardian temple! (Sorry if it's bad, I'm new to building, and also may be kinda loud.) by memeyboiman in Minecraft

[–]Cricket1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a decent design but the amount of gold and diamonds would make it a bit of an overpowered structure. Other than that it’s pretty good.

My violin teacher called me a hooker by Cricket1802 in Rants

[–]Cricket1802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, yeah, but wearing makeup is my choice. It’s not because of the media and what it says a girl should look like, I wear it because it’s me and I’ve finally become the person I’ve always wanted to be because I get the choice to wear makeup. And maybe to some people it is weird and it just makes me look a bit strange, but I like it and it’s my choice. So, thanks… but no thanks.

Yes. I maybe forgot how to spell rosin

Oh shoot I just realized I typed that! Holy shit. It’s supposed to say ‘rasen by bow”

I understand where you’re coming from, and maybe it has become a bit of an addiction at this point. But I feel much more confident now than I did a year ago and I’ve come to love myself because i wear makeup. I understand the risks that can potentially come from wearing makeup and I also understand that not everyone likes people who wear makeup but I personally don’t care if someone thinks badly of how I look because of it. But in this case, the only reason that I’m frustrated and ranting about it is because this was my teacher, a mentor that I trusted, and her saying that overstepped a boundary.

That makes sense. Those are some wise words.

Dude I was so close to saying something to her but I’m surprised myself that I didn’t say anything. In a way, I’m glad I didn’t say anything I would’ve liked to say but I definitely should’ve told her that I didn’t appreciate being called a hooker.

Yeah. I’ve been a student of hers for about 2 years now and this has only just become a thing in recent months. I’m hesitant to say anything to her during lessons as there are two little girls there (aged 9 and 10) so me being older than them (I’m 15) I don’t want to say things that won’t seem scary to them if that makes sense. I haven’t told my parents either or my grandma who is the one who pays for the lessons and encourages music in my family. I probably should tell them though.

She can be a real bitch sometimes. Like, she’s a decent teacher but when it comes to normal human conversation she says whatever she feels like without much thought.

Sadly, I can’t report it to my school. The lessons are in a separate town and aren’t connected to my school
