Band Camp!
It's interesting. You have to be HELLA flexible for Colorguard (if you want to do it right, which no one really can, but whatever). o.o Anyways, it's really hot in the Commons (where we practice), and add that to tons of conditioning and stretching (we're supposed to be able to do splits, which no one can do...) and it equals lots of tired Colorguarders. Lol. But some of the routines are sort of weird, and I SUCK at footwork. So I'm going to need a lot of practice at home... DX Oh well. I think Colorguard should be worth more than a semester of PE. Like, sure, Colorguard's only the fall season, but we work way harder than Marching Band in terms of physical exertion. Whatever. So basically, we have around 20 people in Colorguard right now, and we just stretched and did some interesting "routines" today. Tomorrow we're going to learn the "Basics of Marching" and work with some flags. I'm probably going to smack someone on the head, and I'm wondering whether or not I should request a 10 foot radius so I don't give anyone else (I mean, I'm almost certainly going to give myself) a concussion. So anyways, band amp isn't bad, but it's pretty damn tiring. Marching Band isn't hard, from what Courtney says, just fast music basically. And the weather plus marching, but we all have to deal with that.
