If I Could Turn Back the Time

Oh if I could turn back the time, I would love to go back to my college days. I will not change a thing though. My past is a reflection of who I am now so; I am satisfied. I just want to have a quick look in those happy times with my friends, classmates and workplace. Singing as a hobby is part of my growing up and it became an outlet from my disappointments of life which is a good thing you know. I was surrounded with positive people too who enjoyed clean fun, good music, pure friendship and most of all, great camaraderie.

When I was in elementary, my aunt bought an exceptional student guitar for all of us. My cousins and I play the guitar everyday and we sing a lot. I was a church choir member too. I had fun with my friends especially at Christmas time. My college life is the highlight of fun. Almost all members in the Glee Club knows how to play a musical instrument or two so; we just enjoyed singing. If I could turn back the time, I would love to be in the little theatre with glees, practicing a repertoire.

Audio Materials

When I was in college, I was a working scholar in the main library. I was assigned in the counter where students and faculty loan-out books for few days. Sometimes, if it is slow, I put the books back on the shelves. I love the smell of books and I love working in the library. My work schedule was up to 7 PM and I have a Glee Club practice at 8 PM. I would then get the key of the Little Theater from the in-charge of the Audio-Visual Office, which is part of the library. There is a small booth in the Little Theater which houses the audio material and operation of the sound system, I took charge of that. I do not fool with other functions except the sound system and the microphones.

 

When our beloved conductor arrives, everything is already set up and we practice right away.  After the practice, I make sure that the Little Theater is securely closed and I will then; turn-over the key to the night guard in the campus. In the Audio Visual room, there are so many materials which for me are fascinating to manipulate. Similar audio material like the tone hammer at musician's friend, they have that. By now, they improved a lot with all those new and high tech gadgets for audio-visual usage. Oh yeah, I am reminiscing my college days and I had a wonderful memories in it.
