Band Camp Tomorrow!

.

Anyways, I finished AP Bio homework in 2 days! I feel so accomplished. Still so much to do though!


Band camp starts tomorrow; I'm SO not ready for it. I haven't run a mile in like a year too, on account of not having taken PE last year... I'm screwed. Ahhh... I fainted during a practice last year too, so that's always a possibility. Wonderful.


At least it's only 3 days this year, plus the extra 2 guard practices. Better than two weeks, so I'll take it. xD It's not as hot these days either, which is nice. Aha, no crazy tank top/short/sock tans this year! Actually, scratch that. They'll still be crazy, just not as much as before. =P


I'm so not ready for this season though. No more field shows. =[ Parade will probably be fun in its own way, but there won't be any stadium lights and the whole... "stage" feeling I guess? And there are probably certain things that will never come up in parade, like that lift for the Zorro show frosh year. I doubt anything like that would ever be woven into a parade show. xD


Plus, there's tons more pressure in parade. Not to say that dropping during a field show is good, but it's way less conspicuous than if you mess up during a parade show. There's a chance a judge could miss a drop in a field show; with judges like 5 feet away now, that would be a miracle. And the area for performing is so narrow! The audience is probably 3 feet away. Lots more stress not to hit anyone; especially if you're going through the band too... I already had enough trouble with that in certain parts in field shows... -sighs- Well, good experience I guess. Two years of field, two (presumably) years of parade.


Well, band camp is going to be painful. But I'll get to see all my guardies again! [The picture's from championships last season, just in case you were wondering.]
