Okay im the starting Varsity quarterback for my high school football team. We have practice 4 days a week and every other saturday from 4 to 6:30. I have also been in choir and all the school plays with mainly leading parts for my whole life, and its never been a problem interfearing with football before but now this year the play practice is going to be every night that football is except tell 7!! (and not every other saturday) I know the choir/play director very well and she wants me to do the play so bad, and my coach asked me about it when i talked to him.. HELP!?!???

Or you can talk to the play director and your coach and try to fit in a schedule to do both, but that's unlikey. Just go with what you like to do more.

I wish I could help more but right now I say give it a shot at taking off from the choir until football season is over!Best of luck hun,let me know how it goes!!! :) [ ShOrTnSwEeT42094's advice column | Ask ShOrTnSwEeT42094 A Question ]

Love, you have your whole life to impress people and make a good impression. It's awesome and sexy to be multi-talented, but in highschool there's always going to be somthing that's more important. Make the right choice because it's somthing that you like more, not because it's "cooler" or "more attactive". Go with what you think is right, and not what people on this website believe to be true. Only you can make your decisions.
xluvinux answered Sunday October 3 2004, 11:28 pm: thats tough. if you cant find time for both, you have to decide between one. since both are important, you should at least try to do both. you could ask to alternate between tasks, or use half the time for each. this is a decision you have to think through, and decide which needs you the most. get opinions from your friends and discuss your dilemma with your coach and director. i hope it works out for the best
