Wrong mute!
Wrong mute!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got the wrong trombone mute! Now i have to get someone to drive me to a very far away music store within a week. Gah!
Before the symphony thing was marching band. It was tiring. We stood the whole entire time. A little boring too.
The symphony thing was confusing. I don't usually play so many naturals and F sharps. I couldn't play the notes fast enough and couldn't keep up (i'm a horrible sight reader) I was completely not use to it. Usually i play in a key where there's at least some flats but in a symphony it really different. I played much better after break though. I already seen the music and got an idea of what notes to play.
I started practicing the songs and i can play them now. YAY!
Anyways, on one of our songs it says it needs a mute and i don't have one. My band director says i should use a "stoneline" mute. So i went to the far away music store today and got a mute. (i trusted the guy gave the right one) I ended getting a stoneline "practice" mute.
I emailed my band director to ask it i got the right one because i have a feild trip tomorrow. 2 minutes later he emailed me back saying i needed a stoneline "straight" mute!
GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you have any idea how i feel right now!?!?! I have to get someone to drive me back to the very far away music store before next week! The next rehearsal for _yso is tuesday! *cries*
I didn't even get to play with the mute yet. *cries more*

Art Club
Joined art club. Actually i just went to the meeting for like 10 min the i had to catch the bus. It starts next week.
I told my mom that i wanted to join art club but i didn't give her any details. (i forgot there was a meeting today -_-') So yea...i want to join. It isn't expensive but i'm gonna talk to my mom 'bout it.
__yso thing is tomorrow! Idk what i feel about it anymore. A little excited, i guess. Tomorrow after school we're gonna march in band! We didn't march today (T.T) I'm not sure if we're gonna march tomorrow either but we're definally going to stay after school tomorrow for band 3. Get a few minutes to go home and do hw and stuff then i leave or __yso. That's pretty much about it.
Byes!

Agreed to it
I decided i'm going to do the __YSO. I"m SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo nervous! My band director said he wants me to take private lessons. Private lessons are SOOOOOOOOOO expensive (everything where i live is expensive) I'm already taking private piano lessons $55 per hour, if i do trombone private lessons i'll drain my mom's pocket money. The rehearsal starts on tuesday and i'm scared!
Went to a party today! it was sorta fun. I gave my friend some stinky lotion and body spray. Didn't know what to get her. But overall it was sorta fun.
Still scared about __YSO!
WE"RE MARCHING TOMORROW! I'm so excited! never marched before

I'm scared, unsure, confused etc.. Mixed feelings
I don't know what to do. I don't understand why my band director would choose me. I don't practice THAT much. Heck! i only practiced once or twice over the summer. I don't practice the recommened amount of practicing. I don't have a lot of tromboning experience.(this is gnnwan's third year of playing. that's only 2 full years since i didn't even know how to open my case) I don't take trombone private lessons so why me?
I like band and all that but i don't understand. I tried out for jazz band the VERY VERY VERY VERY last minute last year and played 3rd trombone (out of the 3 trombones there were)Even though i'm in band 3, i was in band 2 last year. Plus, i never played in a symphony before, only band. We have string orchestra but we only combine to symphony @ the end of the year in band 3. (remember i wasn't in band 3 last year!)
I really don't know. The thing is my band director is also the director for the _____(insert city name cuz doesn't want to share her location) Youth Symphony Orchestra (_yso). He wants me to play in __YSO because he really needs trombones and really wants me to play in it. He said i'll get a scholorship and they can pay half of the money thing that covers the whole year. And i don't need to try out and i'll automatically be in the symphony. But i'm a very doubtful about it. The ppl there probably more experienced or have private lessons. Over the summer they went to Europe to play!!!!!!!!!! (that's like insanely good kind of symphony)
I don't know what i should do. I do have some transportation problem but if i really wanted it could probably get there. I feel like i'm really doubting myself but i'm really not sure if i can do it. I was kind of thinking to try out for __yso but now i know that if i join i'm already in, it really make me VERY unsure.
HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!
btw, haven't discussed with parents yet.... Going to tonight.

I must practice. MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST PRACTICE! -looks over @ trombone-
Oh yea! I presuaded my friend to play cello! I couldn't presaude her to join band so yea....THE POWER OF PRESUATION!(my spelling sucks, as you all know) MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! I would totally play cello if i was in the school string orchestra. I think it sounds really cool.
Beat bus again today. Oh yea!

I lost my turtle
Oh no! I lost my turtle! I have 4 turtles. 2 big ones and 2 little ones. My turtle tank has a floating platform on it and the 2 big turtles climbed out and dropped a meter on to the floor. When i got home i couldn't find the bigger turtles in the tank! I found one of the big turtle but i can't find the other! So i have a turtle bigger than my palm crawling around somewhere around the house.T.T I hope it isn't hurt or anything.
If i find i'll make sure to tell you all!!!!!
Oh! i didn't take the bus today. XD I missed the first bus by like 6 seconds. I was like "Screw this..." and started walking home. and believe it or not i made it back home before the 2nd bus even got to the bus stop! XD MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I beat you BUSSY! Very glad didn't wait for the next bus.
Oh i had a writing benchmark today. My writing sucks. I really don't like writing. I can't write and i can't spell. I think i did really bad on it.

Stupid BUS AGAIN!O.O LONG POST
I hate the bus. I take the city bus today like i do when i don't have a ride. This is the first day of school and the first time to take the bus since a long while. I know why i haven't been taking the bus cuz IT"S SO FREAKIN UNRELIABLE!
I've been waiting at the stupid bus stop for more than an hour and a half! I ended up just walking 2 miles back home. Ugh! My backpack was so heavy forom the text books too! Now i have little free time left. I have piano in about an hour and i still need to eat. I HATE BUS! (and my back is killing me)
First day of school was of course very boring and HOT. My first class is Algebra and it like upstairs in the back. It was kinda out of the way from rest of the classrooms(btw, my school is an outdoor school. Like It's not in a building.) So it was a little weird to go to class there especially when you've NEVER been there before. All the teacher were okay. But only our science teacher...She was kinda boring and quite and she kinda looked strict. We already have homework. ugh.
Oh! In band 3 (marching band! Whoo hoo!) I saw this kid that was in my summer class. He was sometimes in my chinese class and sometimes he isn't. HOW IN THE WORLD DID HE GET INTO BAND 3. HE"S LIKE A CLASS CLOWN! I really hope that i don't get him for the Web orintation (sp?) tomorrow.
Yesterday, i went to the charopractor(sp?) becuz i have scoliosis (sp?) I think it's the HIO charopracotor (sp?) Anywayz i think it was pretty cool how the doc knew so much. I have to agree A LOT of meds are pretty much FRAUD and were made for pretty much money making purposes. (a lot of meds don't work on me) Well he adjusted my spine and told me not to strain it so it won't get out of place. So i did for like the first day. I think it's out of place again...Ooops. O.o
Tomorrow, I'm going to the Web oriantation(sp?) thing. YAY no class tomorrow! Except i have to baby sit a bunch of kids. Should be fun! (sarcasm)
Random FACT!
Most of your physical sickness are from having unajusted spine. Means that your very top bone of your spine (located in the neck area) is not straight. Allergies, stomache aches(sp?)etc. is a chance that your spine isn't perfectly straight. having a unstraight back cause enterfearance (sp?) of the back.
bye!
