KARAOKE + MINORS (Rant)

Okay, I'm pretty sure everyone had fun at our first Karaoke Night, right? I'd like to thank all the people who were RESPONSIBLE enough to turn in their permission forms.

This is not supposed to be a joke! We made those forms for the minors for a reason! And that was apparent when ONE person did not even give a form to his parents... and what happened? He got in trouble and gave the choir a bad rep with his parents. The situation was so full of lies it just pisses me off. That was the whole point of giving out forms. We made special arrangements for minors to be let in to the karaoke bar. As you probably saw, the sign said, "No Minors! No Exceptions!" We set that up so everyone can be included in the fun. And for one person to mess that up, especially a new member, is just very disappointing.

Having something in writing gives us back up so you cannot possibly lie to your parents about where you were going that night. Also, if you have to leave by a certain time, the SMART thing to do is to TELL SOMEONE! If you think we are there to save your ass, think again. You have to take responsibility for your own actions. We did our part, you can't rely on the choir to cover up for your delinquencies.

I'm sorry, I don't mean to offend anyone, but really, everyone else was smart enough to understand the situation except one person. I don't want to pick on anyone, but please, you really should have known better. It's even more disappointing that his friend didn't even have the sense to tell anyone about the situation. You really have to learn to take this seriously.

Because of that, if ever we have another fellowship like that, you either show me your damn form, or you won't be able to go. No joke. I don't care if you travelled 100 miles just to go, if you don't have permission IN WRITING, we're just going to send you back home. I don't know how many times I must stress the point of those forms. Don't take it lightly. Those are the exact situations we tried to avoid. It only takes one person to fuck it up. By next time, I hope people learn from it. But the way I see it, I don't think we'll be planning one like that for a long long time.

That's all I have to say. Once again, I really want to commend all of you who DID turn in your forms. That was very responsible of you and I'm proud of you. Yay! BUT LET'S NOT HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPEN AGAIN. (sorry, i'm really pissed off about that. you would be too if someone told fibs about where they were going and used you as an alibi. that's just bullshit.)
