2. "so while my harp teacher is on vacation" In response to Reply # 0
I've been taking singing lessons. Just so I won't embarrass myself, you know, not because I think I'm a singer.
They turned out to be SUPER fun, I'm just loving them and it's making me think that I made a big mistake not doing this and the harp lessons for so long.
Anyway, I think this is hilarious -- my teacher is a guy, and I've always known I had a low voice, a fact that was ignored by high school chorus teachers and frankly also in the monastery because everyone needs sopranos. My teacher affirmed that I'm actually a contralto (low alto) -- so every time my teacher sings to show me how I should be phrasing something, he invariably starts at my note, says, "wow it's really hard for me to sing that low" and transposes it up three notes. A MAN CAN'T SING AS LOW AS I CAN.
I feel like writing notes to all my former teachers saying YOU FUCKED ME UP lmao
