Band Camp: ABCD, and Rifle Work

(I couldn't find a picture of the hand placements, so... XD)


So anyways, I always play ABCD with Ross, Peter, and John (and occasionally some other people; Tommy joined in today) during lunch and stuff. And it's hella fun, unless you mess up when it's Peter's turn, because he slaps like crazy hard, and it actually hurts. XD Ross sort of slaps, but not really, he could go harder. But he won't, because I'm a girl. Stupid chivalry, but it's cute. In a way. XP Then Tommy and John don't slap at all. They're like, okay, whatever. But the funny thing is, usually Ross messes up when its my turn, and I mess up when its his. It's actually sort of interesting. Then I had this time when I messed up like 4 times in a row and I was like, "Aw damn..." But its really fun!!! Haha, it like, makes my day.

*****

Guard didn't have instructors for a while (like, two days), so that was hella cool, but Jay came today!!! Yay! Except he's teaching us rifle, and I suck. XD So we learned a LOT of work today, I'm seriously afraid I'll screw up really bad when we're reviewing. Kyle's coming tomorrow though!!! (Jay is again too.) So it's pretty awesome, because I thought I'd never see them again. ;D Now we just need Jesse... But she's on vacation with Kelly. =P But anyways, our new rifle work is really fast, and sort of confusing, but at least I can do it at a slower tempo (excluding one of the tosses). So it's better than last year, when I was hella confused about the 24 counts coming off the front side line for like, a month. XD
