It's actually better not to practice on the day of a performance. Warming up a couple of hours beforehand is fine, but actually practicing pieces/parts right before the performance can panic/nerve-wrack you easier. That's what I find when Saxophoning, anyways.

I remember when I was in band in middle school, I practiced immediately before the Spring Concert, and I agree with the poster above, it can give you the chills right before the actual performance. So at that time I was so nervous. xD

I played the flute btw. Easiest instrument ever imo xD

I feel bad because I didn't really participate in things like that. .__. I was more into things like leadership, student government, things of that nature. Not really much of a sports/band person, if anything. Last time I actually took part in any kind of sport was middle school, and that was soccer.

..I still kinda miss soccer, and I really look forward to playing things like Tennis soon, hopefully. I'm just really interested in it for some reason...

Maybe that's why we sucked the day we went practicing before the night performance x]

Idk I've always practiced, it calms me down because it lets me know that I know what I'm doing and can do it without much effort, so I don't have to be as nervous.

Even in other activities, say tests or sporting matches, I would make a point of not practicing to heavily. I would mostly just mentally prepare and warm up.

Hi guys! I hope you don't mind if I change the subject here. :3

Ever since working at a popular theme park, I've met some pretty colorful people. And I say "colorful" as a word for meeting alllll the different kinds of wonderful tourists. Now it just so happens that I meet British tourists the most, and that's awesome! Because I love British accents, and I find it funny because most of them(at least the ones that I've met so far) sound so unbelievably posh that I can't help but giggle to myself a bit @_@

Let's just say that I have to make some sort of note to myself to travel to other countries at some point in my life because I hate seeing the world just based on silly stereotypes. ;O;

I mean really, Australians don't say crikey? ._. /shot

I dunno, I just find British accents to be awesome-sounding, yknow? @_@; Though to be honest, I've yet to hear an actual Australian one(as in, me talking to an Australian), as of yet, I'm kinda excited for when that happens, tbh. xD

No, we never say crikey Derk. :(

Also I keep reading the title as the Sexually Confused DCC and I wanted to mention that.

Well, I've been a victim of being "sexually confused" with regards to others confusing my gender. And I think my signatures on PC are hurting more than helping with regards to clearing up that confusion xD

Sad to say I have no studly qualities personally. Nor do I have a cool accent.
