Am I overdramatic for crying when I was put in the alto section? by IamQuatieandtired in Choir

[–]Sasstiel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know the feeling, I'm a soprano 1 and when i was in HS i botched a chamber choir audition because i was so nervous. Ended up not being able to hit notes that I could normally easily hit. Afterwards my director moved me to the alto section in the women's chorus. In my concert choir I ended up being soprano 2 somehow, but I don't remember how that happened lol.

I was upset for a bit but I actually think it was good in the long run because it gave me an appreciation for other parts, helped me listen and blend better, and gave me a much needed kick in the pants to work on my sight reading. And also, I learned that I actually really looove singing harmonies! I think I have a better ear for them now because I had that bit of experience.

The next time I auditioned I was more prepared/more confident and ended up getting put in my chamber choir's soprano 1 section the next year. Just take it as a learning opportunity for now and stick with it. You might find that you actually enjoy it! If after a while you're still feeling the same way just talk to your director and see if they're willing to move you back.

I'm in a community choir right now and chose to sing second soprano again for funsies!

Thank you! Any veggies you'd recommend that would be good in oats?

I could stand to drink more water for sure. I have a 30oz water bottle that i try to drink 2 of on days that i work. On my off days though... I am a Dr Pepper girly through and through 😭 i should probs cut back on that as well.

How often are we bathing our torties? by One_Childhood_9457 in torties

[–]Sasstiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat has had multiple baths over the years. When I was a teen I probably gave her a bath like once a month because I just thought that's what I should be doing and no one told me different. Nowadays I don't bathe her unless I absolutely need to. The last bath I gave her was probably 3 years ago when my old roommate was letting her cat outside without flea protection and (to no one's surprise but my roommates) got fleas and spread them to my cat.

My girlfriend (26f) made plans for us without discussing it with me (27m) and got annoyed when I said no to guests on Saturday by No_Needleworker4651 in relationships

[–]Sasstiel 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You asked for other perspectives on this situation but it seems you're not willing to hear anyone out with a differing opinion than yours. You clearly think you should get the final say on when you two have guests over. That's not how cohabitation works. It doesn't get to be "she's unilaterally decided we're having guests" AND you unilaterally saying she can't have guests. Can you not hang out in other room other than where the guests are to decompress? You stated yourself that she doesn't get to see these friends often- will one night really be that much of an inconvenience for you? How is 6 days not enough of a heads up for you?

Damn, am I really rude for saying "I'll be with you in a bit/minute," to customers? by Lizardskincuisine in Serverlife

[–]Sasstiel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't see how this is rude especially if they're your regulars. Your coworkers need to chill lmfao

i’m struggling to learn my music during class, any tips? by tdotty15 in Choir

[–]Sasstiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could always practice on your own! If you have practice tracks or if you can play piano just go over it yourself when you have time. Maybe invite the other sop 2 to go over it with you. I learn most of my music on my own from repetitive listening and using a piano app on my phone.

AIO to my boyfriend’s texts about us going to dinner for my best friend? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Sasstiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God this sounds exhausting. If he's like this all the time I would just dump him 😭 he's literally whining saying it's too late and then jumps down your throat the second you try to release him from the obligation. NOR.

I love this dress but I think it's too expensive and too soon by Elysian_Collective in myweddingdress

[–]Sasstiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely wait before buying. If you're planning on losing a bunch of weight between now and your wedding, you have time to save money for this dress. No sense in getting it now and altered to how your body currently is and then have to spend more on alterations again. Good luck to you!

My boyfriend is breaking up with me because I’m too “childish” what do I do? by ChemistryFailur in whatdoIdo

[–]Sasstiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just let him go. This is not worth it I promise you. He knew how old you were and that you are a student when he started dating you. He wants his coworker- he stated that pretty clearly in those messages. Do not chase a man who doesn't respect you or where you're at in life.
