Hey everyone~
I hope you had a great three day weekend (if you're from the U.S. like me) and if not, I hope you had a great normal weekend. I had a little cookout with my family, and we made burgers! It was preeetty good, not gonna lie ;)
So my question for this week is a little more deep, but I DON'T CARE! I think it'll be an interesting one nonetheless :)
What is something that someone told you that has always stayed with you? Share your quote down below!
My quote is from my old bassoon teacher. I was 15 at the time, but she said something very important to me about career choices that I have always held close to me. If you don't know me very well, I play the bassoon (google it) and have still continued to at university on a partial scholarship! Anyway, she told me this:
"Quin, don't study music when you go to college. It's honestly the biggest mistake I ever made. Don't get me wrong, I love what I do, but when you pursue one of your passions as your only means of living and making money, it sucks all the fun out of it."
As much as I love being a musician and making music, she was right about the fact that I wouldn't have been happy turning music into my whole world. It's very difficult being a musician for a living!
