I remember one of my happiest memories. Last season at worlds, we were all discombobulated after our performance, with half the guard dying, trying to get that damned picture taken and waiting for our score. I remember Dave coming back with the tapes, and then telling us Plymouth's score, and then ours. It seemed like for one moment we came together as a guard as we flipped out. I don't know why I didn't realise it then but I felt like this surge of energy and then I felt it diminish.
I think that was one of my biggest things with renaissance the fact that I never felt like I was really part of the guard. It was wierd for me to feel like that. I was so used to Clarkston and being who and what I was. And then to go into something new, midseason. It's like I was that trying to shove a square peg into the circle that was that guard. I mean, I don't have any resentment or anything. It's just a part of life. It's hard being the odd man out. Granted, I'd never give back that opportunity for anything. I'm so glad Dave asked me in midseason, it's not a question of that. I just wonder if I'd be so apt to jump at such an opportunity the next time it rolls around. I guess we'll see if such the instance arises.
I really liked Renaissance for the most part. It wasn't my family, and we wen't all best friends, but Renaissance was just Renaissance and I wouldn't want it to be anything else. I'm going to miss them. I just really hope/fear that I'll be banashed. I hope not, that would really hurt.
To my guard: I love you all. You're in my mind on a Saturday night at two thirty in the morning.
I also figured out what went wrong with Indiana circle. But, it doesn't matter. So, I won't get into it.
