Something You Do Well on

Something that I produceed to do non academic is a to play cymbals. Why cymbals you may ask? well(p) I was never really interested in band even though I was in it for a year. I wasnt interested in playing a wood, horn, or drum. I never knew that my school had cymbals cause my class period there were none. The first time that I ever seen factual cymbal players was at TSU football game. I saw how they twirled and danced as they played the instruments. My cousin was in the drum line he bounced around to instrument to instrument.Then he institute his last option cymbals. He told me Keandre why you dont play in band anymore? I said they dont fall in any interesting instrument s. He said you should play cymbals. I immediately joined again. On my first day I had to tick the three basic skills on cymbals choke chase and crash. First was the crash. Crashing the cymbals you had to hold the left or right at an angle the hit it with the other. I could do this step it was the easiest. I ne ver could mess up this step. Crash, crash, crash, one after another left then(prenominal) right then again.Most people that first learn the cymbals this step should come naturally. Next was choke a little more complex. I had to put my hands in the a certain way then had to act as if I was clapping my hand and then move the cymbals forward. I couldnt do this motion right, I tried and either it was persecute or wasnt loud enough. My instructors told me that I couldnt keep moving forward unless I learn this step. I took my pair of cymbals home the next some days. Came back and perfected it like I was one of the cymbal players.The last step is chasing, when I do a little crash to a chock, right in advance you do the choke you turn your cymbals towards you. I couldnt do this difficult step. I tried to watch the others do it merely couldnt, I was thinking of quitting but that wasnt a factor this time. This is something I wanted to do. So I took my cymbals and watched an instructional video on Youtube. I found out that something difficult could be so simple. Once I got this step then I was allowed to play with the rest of the band. As time went by, I learned most of the songs. Then they taught the exceed part of cymbals to me.Twirling, I was already watching videos on Youtube. They said what you got? then they showed how to call other cymbal players out. Put my cymbals in the air and twirl them towards each other. I started to learn the call outs and soon called out everyone even though I would either get beat or win. Someone from Stafford called me out then I raised my cymbals and battled. Once I was done, he sat down. I can hear all of my fellow band members cheering behind me. Once I actually felt like I was a part of an activity. People were actually proud of me.
