i hope every professor who forces me to record my own voice instead of actually letting me give a presentation goes to hell no matter what

ok so today i had my first thai class after a really long christmas break and somehow andreas gabalier (an austrian folk singer) and his music came up. and i don't remember what exactly my teacher said but he made a comment along the lines of "andreas gabalier is considered a standard good looking dude here in austria, right?" (my teacher is from thailand, so he wasn't sure about austrian people's preferences)
and his question was met with complete silence, because the thing is... our class consists of 3 middle aged guys plus one more guy in his early 30s. and then there's me. the only girl
and since no one answered the question about andreas gabalier's looks, our teacher then addressed me directly and following conversation ensued:
teacher: "[airenyah]?"
me: (feeling slightly shy and embarrassed) ".....i don't know what andreas gabalier looks like 🙈"
everyone: (breaks out in laughter)
middle-aged classmate: (highly amused) "i suspect he's not your type..." (me: "oh 🙈") "you're not missing out on anything :D"
i really like my teacher but god, let me live. don't put me on the spot like that 😩😩😩

it isn't too late to switch to cello!!!!! a professional cellist who played at an event i went to started without having touched an instrument at 18, she's in her 60s now and she's toured europe for music stuff. come join us!!! cello is fun!!!
thank you for the encouragement!! what i meant in those tags is that the orchestra i'm involved in is through my school, i'm in the top one out of the three, and i'm in my second to last year. i only realized a couple weeks ago that a large part of the reason i'm so miserable in that class is because i play the viola, but i can't really do anything with that realization now. i'm sure i could learn cello if i wanted to, but i have a bad history with taking private music lessons, and if i switched now i'd probably have to drop out of the top orchestra since i don't think i could get up to the level we're expected to be at over the summer. i also have a bad history with joining orchestras outside of my school, so that doesn't really feel like an option either. it just sucks that i'm only now figuring out what's wrong when i can't really do anything about it

do you ever ask your teacher to explain something during study hall when hes not doing literally anything for the next 40 minutes and hes like "oh i would explain that but actually go talk to this person who hates you and get them to explain" and interrupts you when you try to explain they've been harrassing you for the past year and then tells you that you cant sit where you want to actually you HAVE TO sit next to this person who hates you so they can explain something when you know for a fact they sleep through every single class so they wouldnt help even if they did like you and so you sit there in the MIDDLE OF THE CLASSROOM where its impossible for you to properly function because of your crippling anxiety and paranoia when youre doing anything in full view of other people so instead you just sit there for 40 minutes on the verge of an anxiety attack and get less done than you wouldve if you hadnt asked at all???? and in the end youre still confused?????????????
yeah. love those days actually.
