I know what happens at band camp stays at band camp but omg guys I have to tell you about it
Uhhh tired. I'm tired.
okay happy part today, srs bsns life lesson shit tomorrow or something~
So we had a great week, it was sunny all day long every day. And considering we have to stand outside, all day, in a field at LEAST the size of a football field... Yeah, I got sunburnt.
Freaking all over.
XD It's really terrible.
I made new friends, who are awesome, and I slept in the same bed as a bisexual girl who snuggled with me all night ;DDDD
YEAHHHHHH
ah, we had skits, which were HUGELY inappropriate XD One of the best things about my show band is the fact that we can get away with anything. I swear to god. People were making fun of the band directors, and a few are overweight. At one part, they killed one in a skit by feeding him healthy food.
A quote?
"Healthy food? I haven't eaten that since NINETEEN FOURTY FOURRRR."
then he started shoveling hamburgers down
"NOO IT'S TOO LATE!!!!"
then he dies XD
and like you guys are probably thinking that's mean, making fun of our band directors so harshly, but we ALWAYS DO THIS. And they laugh! It's amazing! We can get away with using a pool noodle as a vaccuum hose between our legs and jacking it off really fast to "get it into turbo", and using a foot as a boner in our pants. I mean honestly, nobody gets in trouble.
It really feels like a family, with those guys. I honestly am like, so teary eyed thinking about how great I feel with my show band. It is the toughest work I have ever had to do, but it is so worth it. We laugh together, work together, succeed or fail together, do pushups when we mess up together.
I've never really felt so at home in my house, so I usually rely on outside activities to make me happy. Getting out of the house is a godsend. Whenever I used to be upset and cut, it was because I didn't get out of the house enough. I think that's true for everyone, the more stagnant you are and the less you work and make goals, the less happy you will be.
And now I'm happy. I am part of something bigger. I teach people and help people and teach myself. I work; I work hard.
I am so glad I took that risk, got over my insecurities and fears, and got out there and joined something. Because I don't know what I'd do without guard, honestly. I am so proud of myself for what I do. Hell, this is crazy for me to say, but....
I might even like show band more than orchestra
I mean like, they're both kind of similar- It's like apples to pears.
But...
Orchestra was always something I enjoyed to do.
Guard is something I enjoy to do AND to be a part of. The people, the music, the dancing, the choreography....
I am so addicted :'D
TL;DR version
Me likey show band. They inappropriate and funny and family to me.
*Shelby gets mushy*
I love you all... :'D
