Ah, yesterday was so much fun. Emma decided earlier this week that she'd take the entire saxophone section to Northwood Pizza because all of us but like 2 or 3 had come to the carwash. Daniel didn't show up because he hadn't gone to the carwash and felt bad about coming, Parsa was in San Francisco, Jordan has no spirit for marching band at all, and Eric couldn't come for some reason not explained, but everyone else was there, and it was lots of fun. I played some pool and some air hockey (ah I love air hockey!) and wasted millions of dollars (well, it seemed like that) on this arcade type game to get these sticky deformed animals. The more I got the more deformed they seemed to get. We played mafia and speed and Egyptian Rat Screw. Around... 6 or 7 me, Emma, Andrew (not a saxophone in marching band, but Emma invited both Andrew and Jackie for being drum majors as well), Brian Kim the younger, and Xiafei (I think that's how you spell his name) came to my house and ate lots of desserts my mom's hairdresser made her for winning the dessert of the month drawing which were delicious and we played Clue and Cranium. It was great fun. The sax section is totally the best section.

Beach party was not as fun. Kind of disappointing, really. The thing is, it started off really fun, I thought, so my expectations for the rest of the night rose, but then... everything just kind of sucked after that. I got really bored and the annual burying of the drum majors/directors was bad because people kept kicking sand to fill the hole which gets the sand in their eyes and mouth and all which is obviously bad, and people kept crowding around them really close, and it's like... you can't do that because then there's a lot more weight on them and it's harder to breathe and such. The worst part was when someone lit off a firecracker in the middle of our area. I mean, not only is it illegal in this city, but wtf the least you can do is not set it off in the middle of a bunch of people! That's seriously dangerous. ugh. That just pissed me off a lot.

Oh, and I also liked how Paul and Gavin managed to show up for the beach party when they've missed nearly all of marching band. And I hear Paul's excuse for missing band camp today was he was sick, but if he's too sick to come to band camp I feel he should be too sick to come to the beach party.

There were some good moments, especially early on, and I did get to see Annie which was definitely like the highlight of the day, but... ugh. Most of it was just disappointing. Oh well. At least band camp (last band camp for me ever!) is finally over. Anyways, now for some pictures!


I have a lot more than this on my computer but I tried to cut down the ones that I was going to post.


Beach!


Richard and Jackie. (I think he was pretending to hit on Jackie here, but I think the picture actually just came out like a cute, friends-y picture.)


Richard and Brian.


Galaxy looking on as Duncan drops Richard.


Annie!


Andrew loving Brian.


Battle of who has the whitest chest: Richard vs. Duncan.


Andrew loving... someone. I thought this was the other Brian, but then I saw another picture with him in it and he wasn't wearing a gray shirt, so I don't know who that is.


Dogpile!


The other Brian holding Andrew.


Soan holding up Judy.

Aw, I just checked my e-mail and one of my freshman mentees e-mailed me with a bunch of questions. That makes me feel happier. I like being able to be all helpful and such.

Despite the fact that you said it was disappointing, your pictures make the beach party look fun. :p

The pictures from the beach party I posted are primarily from the part of the beach party that was fun, so that's probably why it looks that way. Because yeah, even though in the end it was disappointing, there were definitely parts that were a lot of fun. :)

*envy* your band is so much more gay than mine. :( xD; i <3 you!! awww... no more beach parties to see each other. :( but hey, football game on the 22!

Hee, I know, this is what always ends up happening whenever we go... anywhere. There's a lot of kissing and groping and gayness. It's pretty awesome.

[violetmist2003.livejournal.com]

Ha, I thought you meant gay as in happy. Stupid me.

Aw. All your talk about the saxophone section reminds me of my days in youth orchestra and at music camp - I played the viola, and the viola section ALWAYS was the friendliest, most fun section :D

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

Ah, that's awesome. I don't know why the sax section seems to be the most fun and friendliest, but I don't think I'd be having nearly as much fun in any other section.

Guess what I found on my bookshelf yesterday? The RnB :D. Gosh, good memories. We were all so psycho back then.

And I think we have English together next year, since Fitz doesn't teach 5th period.

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

Hee, that's awesome. I think I have a RnB (I think we had like... two or three, right?) in my bookshelf too. 8th grade was a lot of fun, despite certain teachers.

Ah, Fitz doesn't teach 5th? That makes me happy, because I wanted Jelnick. Yay for possibly having English together! Soan has it 5th too, so she'll also probably be in the same class.

[violetmist2003.livejournal.com]

It'd be awesome if we could find the big one that we originally had. And 8th grade was fun because of Poole. I mean, how much fun was it to make fun of her green pen and her boyfriend and all her weird habits? And the petition totally made the entire class bond. Too much fun, I tell you.

I wanted Fitz, if only because I had her freshmen year and I was hoping to get a rec letter from her. I hear Jelnick's an awesome teacher though, so yay for that.

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

I think I might actually have the big one, but I don't know where it is. I should look for that. Heh, yeah, that class definitely did make things a lot of fun at times.

I wanted Jelnick because I heard she was a great teacher and I knew nothing about Fitz, so yeah. I'm happy with having Jelnick (as of now, at least).

aw dude it hink i found the tandem story thing we wrote about the evil computer eaters .. or something. I might not have actually found it though, that might have been a lie. But i remember it! Are you ... one of THEM?!?!?!

I wanna see the RnB... >_> <_< growl!

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

Hee! I totally remember that. That's awesome.

You should either come to my house or I should bring it next time we hang out and then you can read it! I think I know where it is. The RnB was totally awesome.
