So is saxophone players being literally the best, kindest, prettiest people a universal thing or is it just literally every single one I've ever met??

Have yall ever wanted something so bad that you literally get hungry every time you think about it? Like the phrase "I have a hunger to do this" literally becomes real. Like all you want is to do this one thing and it literally sucks everything out of you to not have it.
I feel that way about being a section leader in band. I've wanted this since I was a freshman, and there's only one thing I want more than to be a section leader (to be a band director).
And I'm so close. I think I'm going to get it. I've been physically hungry thinking about it. So I drink some water to fill my stomach.
I feel like I'm going to puke when I think about it, it makes me so excited that my heart races and I can't think straight.
Is that what love feels like to normal people? If so it's amazing.

Ok ok im probably not ever gonna end up doing anything with the marhcing band au but amber would play mellophone (or trumpet if the badn didnt have enough) as much as i woudl want her to play the same instrument as me for self indulgemnt reaons i can not imagine her playing somehting thats not brass. Also i cant imagine syau being band at all but like,,,,, what if we put her on bass 5 guys… tiny guy sayu walking around with ginormuous bass drum…. It would be so funny but also i really dont think she could carry that but whatever i dont care let me be insane for a second. She could also be in pit playing, like, idk the rack or something… hmmmmm
My school is a pretty small school so we dont have that many different instruments also im a wind player so my knowledge of the pit and percusison in general is pretty limited but anwyas
Ok since i really dont pay that much atteniton to inazuma characters that much were gonna pull from my syau boat fic and put sayu in mond territory so i dont have to figure out what all the inazuma peoples insturments are
Definitely feel free to correct me on what these guys would do if you actually read this because i am an expert of 0 characters
Kaeya and eula would defintely be guard, ii could also imagine mika being guard cause reconaissance company but honestly i didnt pay that much attention to him either so idk. Jean drum major obviously but in concert or if we dont make her drum major she would be flute :) venti flute or maybe in the pit playing mallets or someitng lisa., pit. Idk what but i dont think she would be marhcing, uhhhhhhh noelle. Low brass something. Tuba or baritone. Or maybe in battery as bass drum. Sucrose, upper woodwinds, either flute or clarinet, probably clarinet maybe. Albedo. Looks like a pit person. Mallets. I guess. Razor low brass probably, or marching cymbals?? Idk we dont have those at my school so idk, i can defintely see it though. Bennett is trumpet probably fischl is guard, rosaria would be guard too? Barbara would be pit piano or upper woodwinds….. i cnat think of anyone else besides klee and diona but idk if were gonna count them, if we do klee in trumpet maybe and diona in pit on mallets. That being said if this really is eveyrone in mondstadt we’re definitely gonna need more poeple which would be fine but also i dont pay attention to most or hte character so i wouldnt know what they would play……

even tho it was a positive post speaking against the negativity, that post about “t voices” from about a week ago made me reaaaaalllly insecure about my voice because i had no idea that was a stereotypical thing for singers on testosterone to be concerned about so, although i hadn’t been anxious about it before (all the trans singers i’d talked to said i’d be fine as long as i kept up with the singing), I suddenly was (because that’s how my shit brain works). So, counter-intuitively, I’d been avoiding singing high because I didn’t really want to accept that I’m gonna lose that range, but i FINALLY got up the nerve to for real sing again and I’m back to report that my voice IS cracking if i try to take it past E5, but I’ve also gained a couple new low notes and the entire rest of my range works fine, so I’m feeling really good about it!!!!!!

Today in “apparently this crappy show will haunt me forever,” I mentioned the jukebox musical we did for my high school freshman year, Back To The Eighties, while talking to someone. Including bringing up the Star Wars dream sequence set to the theme from The Greatest American Hero - and no, I have no idea why they chose an entirely different property’s theme song for a Star Wars dream sequence. Even if they couldn’t get the rights you’d think they’d have chosen something that wasn’t a theme song? Anyway.
On the way home, what comes up on the radio but Believe It Or Not, theme song from The Greatest American Hero. My mom and I find this very funny and sing along because how can you not, and keep singing even as we enter a tunnel and the signal cuts out. I time the instrumental break in my head and continue. My mom can’t keep track of it and wonders out loud as we finish the song what part it’ll be at when we get out of the tunnel, shortly before we do.
Me: I know I go fast in my head but I remember how long the lightsaber fight is, we’ll probably be at the very end or the very start of the next song.
We exit the tunnel on the very last notes of Believe It Or Not. I was in this show fifteen years ago and wasn’t even in this number. Score one for Regalli’s musical memory, I guess.
#family shenanigans#incest mention in tags#in fairness it’s also a very memorable sequence due to having one of the funniest stage directions in a show full of bizarre ones#(a dancer with a chiffon scarf appears to give the scene a surreal feel) which is entirely unnecessary#because the scene puts Acceptable Levels of Nerdy Protagonist as Luke Skywalker; Jerk Jock Romantic Rival as Darth Vader;#and Love Interest as Princess Leia. and then they do the Luke-Vader fight from the end of Empire. You know the one.#don’t think too hard about it the writers sure as hell didn’t. this is about the level of eighties reference and plot writing throughout.#the pit had to rewrite/improvise the Eye of the Tiger score because it was so profoundly off#they also had to debug the score because apparently it had sections for saxophone containing notes saxophones cannot hit.#as one does.#the other funniest stage direction here is the one at the end of Centerfold in which the final count is ‘one last tirade against humanity’#(that one-two-three-four before the final round of nah nahs.)#in case you couldn’t tell this is not a good show and as far as I can tell it’s largely done by amateur productions like say high schools#because they need nostalgia money and the license is cheaper than Footloose (or it’s otherwise unavailable)#it makes for some great stories though.#oh also I give it a pass because it was written in like 2001 but it includes Never Gonna Give You Up. so we also got rickrolled for months#riiiiight around its peak.

Happy 2023 to my EST friends and to all who have already or have yet to see it! We made it. We all made it. And we will again!
And to those that haven't, we carry them in our hearts with us and make it for them.
