1. Being compelled to analyze any music you hear in the real world.
2. Feeling overwhelming guilt when you spend any waking minute not practicing.
Even in the bathroom,I can't escape practice. #MusicMajorProblems
3. Releasing your frustration on the practice room walls.
4. Hearing all the rules you learned in music theory being broken by the composers you're studying.
Parallel fifths EVERYWHERE.
5. Knowing that a child prodigy filled more seats in one night than you will in your lifetime.
6. Going to a recital solely for the reception food.
The coolest plate I have seen in a while. #recitalfood #yummy
7. Turning your own pages.
8. Taking 18 classes for about zero credits.
After putting it in a schedule it's too painful to see how little time I have....#musicmajorproblems
9. Failing to restrain your impulse to conduct everything.
10. You don't always receive the in-depth feedback you're paying for.
11. Trying to make a captivating recital poster with your minimal art skills.
12. Taking classes outside your major.
#MusicMajorProblems lmaoo
13. Missing out on gorgeous weather because you're trapped inside a practice room.
14. Literally trapped.
15. Knowing that everyone in the hallway is judging your practice session.
Maybe you'd sound better if you could hear yourself over the trumpet next door.
16. Never fully satisfying your studio teacher, no matter how hard you try.
17. Living in constant fear that your instrument will fail you during your solo.
18. Having to make your recital seem cooler than it is to get people to come.
Is it bad I laughed aloud at this? #musicmajorproblems #tweetsfromcatlett
19. Getting depressed because your recital is over and now you have to take your dress off.
20. Never quite mastering circular breathing.
Especially if you were a voice major.
21. Wondering if the conductor is eyeing you because he's trying to flirt or he knows you messed up.
22. Dealing with crippling self-doubt on a daily basis.
What's that? Only .0005% of my class will make it as full-time professional musicians? Oh, okay.
But still, it's your passion, and you wouldn't trade it for anything else.
