Haha...HA HA HAAA HA HAAA!!!
*insert evil sadistic grin* Hehe...as of now...Katana is...FOURTEEN!

That should explain how I feel. XD
So, now...I had band camp yesterday. And today, tomorrow, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. God dammit. I'm on cymbals, since oboes don't march (we'd smash our reeds every step of the way - ask Celtic Rune for verifiance ^_~), and god, I can't do it.
Okay, maybe I'm jumping to conclusions too soon. But I've never actually played a percussion instrument before - like, you know, actually playing it, not banging - and everyone else in the drumline has. I think. But there's only one other freshman with me, and he's a regular drummer - a really, really good drummer, and he's one I actually like. So I'm feeling kinda...useless.
When one plays the cymbals in a high-hat fashion, you have the left on the bottom and the right on the top. Your left arm is supposed to kinda stand on it's own, and, supposedly, most of the weight of the cymbals is supposed to go into your stomach. Therefore, you open it and "close" it like a lid. I kept pinching myself on my left arm, 'cause I'm a newbie - *points to five blobs of red/purple marks*. Then, my left arm just suddenly collapsed on me. I couldn't lift it at all. Previously during the break, my arm couldn't survive gravity.
Then, at 6, we went to the auditorium to practice some music. The guy and my teacher let me clap my part, which made me feel really guilty. But then again, they all had their shoulders supported the weight, not their arms. Which do you think has longer endurance?
So...practice kinda proeceeded like this:







...Yeah.
Woke up this morning to "Happy Birthday"'s and sore as hell elbow joints and a left shoulder. God I hurt. I think I need an icy-hot patch. =_=;; Or at least, lotsa ice.
Hmm, there was something else I wanted to say...
Oh. That was it. XD
Hey wait, no it wasn't. >.>
The front page has the Time thingie with anime:
ANIME NEWS: Anime TIME?
Posted Yesterday by Adam

Katana, one of our friendly myO members, notified me that Time Magazine's latest issue features their opinion on the top 5 anime DVDs. Their picks: Perfect Blue, Spirited Away, Steamboy, Akira, and Barefoot Gen. Interesting choices, I guess...

Haha, I'm friendly. Guess I am...I like to randomly do stuff.
Oap! You know those new staff positions? I has kinda interested in be a news poster...but you have to be 16? What? C'mon! I write better than someone twice my age! Sheesh.
Edit: Oi, folks, people twice my age, not half. Meaning, someone 28 or so, I typically write better than them. I hope I write better than someone seven. =_=;;
