I appreciate everyone's advice. It's just really difficult right now because just going to grad school didn't even become an option until about a month ago.
Most band directors I know rarely, if ever, perform. There's just no opportunities for it. I can't give the performing aspect up. I love it. If I taught saxophone at the college level, I could have it all: I could teach AND still get to perform and teach an age group that appeals to me the most.
It's funny because I know in my heart that this is what I should do with my life. So why can't I convince myself to just do it?
I'm not graduating for 2 more years. Yeah, 6 years total for a bachelors degree. Anyone that has ever been or known a music major can understand. There's a zillion classes to take, and the more advanced you get as a musician, the more ensembles you end up in. Haha, right now I'm in *6*: Wind Ensemble, Jazz Band, Orchestra, 2 choirs, and Saxophone Quartet.
Anyhoo, I really appreciate all the advice. It's helping me tremendously!
