brokenrecordYesterday was the best day ever. It was my last marching band competition ever (since I'm a senior and not doing marching band in college) and the last of the season, and we ended up getting 1st out of 6 bands in our division! We also got 1st in percussion and 5th in colorguard. So yeah, that was pretty awesome, especially since it wasn't our best show and I would've been really happy if we'd gotten 3rd or 4th. And it was totally like freshman year at the exact same comp, where we thought we did badly and then we ended up getting first (that's also the only other time I've been in marching band that we got 1st). Very nice end to the season. :D
It was also especially awesome since on Friday both the competition and the homecoming game which was on Friday (which we perform at) were cancelled because of the air quality due to fires in San Bernadino. And all the seniors were kind of freaking out because Mrs. Bentley wasn't being very... cooperative about adding another comp and we didn't think she'd really try to find one, and that would mean our last comp ever was last Saturday and it was just overall very bad. But then the district changed their mind and the football game was back which meant we could go to Loara too, so it worked out just fine.
Oh and Thursday was Spirit Night which was fun. I helped by reinforcing murals with tape in the senior building, and then I spent several hours hanging out with my friends at the band room. But whatever, the seniors won Spirit Week, which is especially cool since as juniors last year, we beat the seniors (which was the first time that happened in like 13 years) which means our class won Spirit Week two years in a row.
Anyways, I guess that's about it that's been happening that's really exciting. Really tired now, since after we got back from the comp at 11:45ish, we all went to Denny's and I didn't get home until about 2:40 AM. I haven't checked my flist since about Wednesday what with Spirit Night, the homecoming game, and the comp, and I'll try to get through most of it but I'm not sure how successful I'll be. Marching band season is only two more weeks and we only have one game and no more comps (although we do have Band Spectacular on Wednesday) so I'll be a much better friend shortly. Fall just happens to be super hectic.
