Band camp is awesome so far....I MADE HONORS BAND!!!!!!
That's really good! That's the top band where most of the
'talented' people play in. I'm 2nd chair. They have symphonic
and Honors band, about 6 of my friends made symphonic,
and 5 made honors, give or take a few....The food is AWESOME!!
You can get seconds, and thirds if you want, and they
have Dr.Pepper, Cherry coke, Root Beer, anything, you name
it!! It's way better than Middle School food!...........The only
bad thing is that it's really hot. I've been sweating nonstop
these past two days! I wish I chose flag class, but my mom
wouldn't let me. This year they're holding flag class in the
school curch where it's nice and cool. But i'm glad I didn't
choose marching fundamentals, my sister almost did....That
class is in the after noon when it's really hot, and they have
to march outside for a whole hour in this blistering Texas heat.
The lowest it's been this week is 99 Degrees!!!! So it's very hot
outside, and the band hall where we practice barley has any air
conditioning. We spend most of our time in little rooms on the
second floor. Actually, it's not even a second floor. It's just a
huge square building that's very tall, and Has two stair cases on
the left side of the hall one on the side of the room across from
you (if you were standing in the door way) and one on the same
side as you, and there'e this little balcony thing that goes around
the hall on three side, the fourth side is covered by curtains
to hide the bare wall. On the balcony thing (for lack of a better
word) are over 15 little tiny, hot, non sir-contitioned, steamy
rooms that you could barley fit 8 people in, some of them can
barley fit 3. That's were we spend most of our time, if ur a clarinet
or some other un-fortunate instrument asigned there for that
certain session or what ever. But it's fun non than less... My schedual is:
9:00..........Band Rehersal
10:00..........Music Appreciation
11:00..........Masterclass
12:00..........LUNCH!!!!!!!
1:00..........Sectional
2:00..........Band Rehersal
3:00..........Recreation Activities
4:00..........Woodwind Ensemble/Choir
5:00..........Go Home
On Saturday we have a concert, and on Thursday, at 3:00-5:00
we can either swim in the pool, or watch a movie. I have to go,
I'll talk more about the subject later and try to visit every one's
sites when I can.
