The Symphony







Last weekend I went to the St. Louis symphony orchestra it was pretty awesome, but only because it was a new type of expeirence. The whole situation was pretty weird. For one thing I went with another classmate and his girlfriend and i was with mine but we all didn't know each other that well so it was awkward. When we got there all we saw was old people. We should of knew it would be like that but it still came to a surprise. I never felt so out of place and it seemed liked everyone was givving us mean looks or something. Anyways right when we got there we lokked around the whole place and went and looked off the balcony and stuff like that. Everything was covered in velvet and looked really nice and fancy. After that we took our seats and waited for it to start. It was preety cool at first watching such great complicated music get made in front of your face. But after about the first ten minutes we all bout wanted to kill ourselves. After the first two thirds of the symphony was played there was an intermission. It wasWe all got up and went to stretch our legs and get a drink of water. We then had a choice to just leave then. Instead we didn't like idiots because we thought the last part would be good. It was actually the worse and we all left the place about to fall over asleep. Then we got something to eat and tried to make the best of a boring akward situation.

  1. That is too bad that your symphony experience wasn’t that enjoyable. I went to see a symphony once, but my experience was a little bit more enjoyable. I went to see an orchestra perform pieces from a movie. It wasn’t quite as fancy as yours sounds, but it was still pretty cool. They played the songs while scenes from the movie flashed on a giant screen behind them. There were even some pretty cool light shows during a couple of the songs. All in all, I really enjoyed my experience. Why am I saying all this? To let you know that all symphonies aren’t as boring as you think.
