Hye-sang Kalile Alako Now that would be funny. Actually, I did finally ask him out... he said "I don't know. We'll see," which is the nice way of saying "heck no, go away!" and we spent the last two weeks of school studiously avoiding eachother. I was talking to someone near the door of my english class, and I happened to look up as he walked in. The person I was talking to looked at me funny because I turned my head away so fast while she was in the middle of a sentence, and J tripped because he was looking at his feet and didn't see a desk. rolleyes That was pretty embarrassing... never been turned down by a nerd before... sweatdrop Aw, but we, the instrumentalists, are nerds and I embrace it with love. It's the geeks that you have to work for, anyway. mrgreen Actually, that was a dumb thing to say; I've never asked a true nerd out before/ never liked someone that much before. I am a true geek; I work for myself, I guess. xd

*Sigh* My Orchestra Romance is still in effect. It all started with a youth orchestra in my city. The top 2 groups go on a retreat every year & that year, my mom went w/ me as a chaperone. Well, she didn't want to sit with me on the bus (hmmph) so I went to the back & she sat next to someone who offered her a seat because he was new and didn't know anyone. She talked to this guy the entire 3 hour way & told him my life stroy (great...). redface Well, after the trip she came up to me and said "Mi'jita, I found this really cute guy for you. I sat next to him on the bus and we talked. He's polite and really nice. I told him about you and said I'll introduce you guys during lunch." Needless to say, I was curious. After all - my mom was hooking me up rolleyes . Anyway, I met him, was completley impressed and interested. So we talked for the next two rehearsals (we only had them once a week), he asked me for my number and we ended up dating. A month later, he asked me to be his girlfriend. heart Almost 3 years later we're still together, I have a promise ring, and we'll probably be married after college! Orchestra romance... who knew?

*cries. cries alot*
that's such a beautiful story.
in my orchestra i didn't know anyone and all the guys were little nerds. except for that one guy who was brainless moron who felt it was necessary to make is inferiority complex my problem. i didn't talk to anyone. and i was pissed off cuz he seated me really low. i wouldn't be complaining, but i think i deserved to be higher.
sorry, i didn't mean to rant about my youth symphony grudges.

Cookiin Kalile Alako Heh. My story is quite funny, actually. At least to me. My high school has four levels of orchestra, first being the lowest and fourth the highest. Our third orchestra, not to brag, is a little above the level of most high schools' top orchestras, and our fourth orchestra is sublime. I'm in third. After a mix up in schedules, I got transferred into an english class with this guy, also called "J". J is a dork. Seriously, he's got the geeky blonde hair, the glasses, wears turtlenecks and argyle shirts... the whole nine yards. I absolutely adored him the second I saw him, and although he hardly ever talks, he said something really intelligent in a class discussion that proved my first impression right. That day we had a rehearsal after school, as we were playing "Unforgiven" at open house. V4 violins were instructed to come up to the front to lead the class. And there was J! I almost dropped my bow. Later I found out that he's the concert master of V4. Basically, the best violinist in the state. He's extremely shy, and I'm... not. I've tried talking to him a few times, and I scare him to death. Seriously, he edges away whenever I talk to him. And I can't get away from him; because we're in the same major he's usually wherever I am. I've literally run him over about six times. biggrin I told him I thought he was "really neat" once... stressed Seriously, the whole situation is hilarious. yes. good luck. lucky bums. Cookiin-san, your siggy has my kimono heart

Naw, I've come to terms with the fact that it's just a funny story. Nothing's ever going to come of it... and that's ok with me. ...Well... sort of. xd Don't worry; romance is waaay overrated, unless you get lucky like mariachic and a few people like that who find their loves early in life. Other than that... I'd rather not bother. Not that I can help it... *points to above story* The worst/oddest part is... we might be in the same orchestra next year, and we're both in History AP, American Lit Honors, and Physics Honors. So, if I make it into top orchestra, and since we've both got the same major, it's likely we'll have most of those classes together. *sigh* rolleyes

I have my own recent saga.
As a Sophomore in my High School Orchestra, I became friends with a few Juniors in the Orchestra, namely Laura & Anna {2 violinists}. By being friends with them, I became friends with Bob, the bass player. I actually started really becoming friends with Bob by giving him advice on girls, and being a listening ear. While he was going out with a girl in band, I guess I started to like him as more than just a friend. But I tried not to think about it, since he was rather unavailable. I just set him aside for once she graduated and they would most likely break up. So, near the end of the summer, they did in fact break up. "Yay!" says I inside, while comforting him. But then I ran off to Canada for 2 weeks, and he to San Antonio. By the next time I saw him, he was going out with Anna. I don't even know at this point if I really like the fellow or not, but it just pains me to see them so happy together when I'm so very.. lonely. sad

I'm sorry. It does get awkward when you have friends that are dating people and you're not. confused
The conclusion of my orchestra romance: we are friends now. Good friends. When we hang out, we almost never talk... but we're still good friends, and that makes me happy. We have to play for open house, and the orchestra is situated in the top balcony of our new theater; I'm standing right next to him, and the two of us move a bunch when we play, so we pretty much clear out the top balcony for several feet around us... he's tried to knock me over the edge with the scroll of his violin a couple of times, because his shoulder is about level with the top of my head and sometimes we move in opposite directions and I have to dodge his bow or the scroll or something. But it's ok... we're expressive. And that's a good thing; we dance together. whee

I really thought it was going to be a real romance (musical). not sentimental.

That was such a cute story! Aww. I too have a story of orchestra romance! It's not as cute as yours, but it's still nice:
Right before the 7th grade, I started to play the violin. My teacher was so impressed at how well I was doing that she said that I would be able to join the orchestra at the middle school. I was esctatic! 4laugh 3nodding biggrin heart The first day of school when I came in, that emotion quickly changed. cry Everyone rejected me because I was new (everyone else had been playing since the third grade). One guy (a violist) welcomed me, and let me in. He even fought off rude comments about me. We became great friends, and remained best friends for many years. Deep down we both new we would be a great couple, but rarely brought it up. A few months ago, we officially hooked up. We are greatly in love, and it's all thanks to his kindness, and my violin! heart heart

ah, orchestra romance. I seem to be ignored in orchestra. I mean, people talk to me, but not like they mean it. Heh, I'm a violinist, and I'm a second. There are only a few boys in the violin section, so most are girls. I try to be friendly with everyone, but it's hard if you're ignored. But saying that I never had girlfriend...never mind. There is this one girl that is about my playing level and a few days ago, we met up and practiced together. I really like her, but it seems as if we're going to stay on a "friend" level. Well so much for orchestra ramance. But, it will happen eventually.
