Holy crap, its been forever since I've written in here...almost a month...where to start.
Atlanta rocked ALL. We did really well, best show in 4 years. Nolan cried. It was amazing. After the show we did the standard seniors talk in the hotel, and we all signed the drill. It was great, and it just brought back so many memories over the last 4 years.
The practice before was even better. That thursday, when suddenly we realised that we had just finished our last true rehersal after 4 years...we all cried...it was just such an incredible feeling.
As far as the past month, things have gone pretty well. I've generally been happy, always a plus. Back in september something really scarey happened to one of my closer friends, but the doctor said they were gonna be ok, so that turned out fine. Other than that, nothing bad's really happened.
Yorktown day was awsome. I didn't march with the core, but some of the old members were there. We hung out and goofed around for a few hours. Connie and Matt showed up for a while, but he had to go. It was cool seeing all the old instructors again, and then we ate at the pub too...yay free food!
Speaking of food I officially gave up fast food. Ok, so I nixed Chic-Fil-A and subway from the list. other than those 2, no fast food...ok so I also cheated like a mofo on the band trip, but that's kinda un-avoidable. It'll probably be damn near impossible to give up all junk food, and I don't plan on it. but already, I've lost 13.5 pounds over the last 3 weeks of not eating fast food at all Once I hit the 13 pound mark, I kinda stoped lossing weight. That's ok, cause the regular exercise I've been getting has probably added minor mussle mass, and the first 10 pounds were probably water weight to begin with.
I dunno, senior year has just been rockin so far. I don't think I can ever remember a time in my life, when I was simply this generally happy, for such a great lenght of time.
