Day 1 of Band Camp 2004
7:15 a.m.- I arrived at HHS. To my dismay I was the only other person to arive early other than the staff and Jake Bokeno, but I dislike Jake. So I talked to Heather. I walked outside and seen no one was coming. Darn my luck.
7:30 a.m.- I saw Greg get to school for RIB camp. I like his car it's cool. A couple of the girls arrived. I then proceeded to talk a jog around the parking lot. I gave up on the way back, I walked. I know, I'm so lazy and out of shape.
8:00 a.m.- Rules and Regulations. Fun. About ten mintues after those we marched (as a unit) down to the practice field. Not so bad. A lot of people were out of step. Dumb FRESHMAN! Hopefully they'll get better during this week. Once we got to the field we did some warm ups. Fun fun!
8:20-10:00 a.m.- BOOT CAMP! Well it might have been. No words were allowed to be spoken on the field. None! And then we find out we have a marching instructor to help us "better our marching". He's so weird. They are changing half of the things we know. Our Parade Rest is different, our Attention is different, even how we stand is different! We shout different things then what we were used to. "AND ONE!!!!!!!" that's what we yell. Isn't it just so nice. It's like we're in the army not high school. All we did was march and stand still. No words, no sound other then our screams of "AND ONE" and "ssth". "Ssth" is the sound we make when we mark time.
10:00-10:10 a.m.- BREAK! Nothing to state. Well except...THANK GOODNESS FOR WATER!!!!!!
10-11:15 a.m.- hmmm nothing but marching! YAY!
11:15-11:25 a.m.- BREAK! WATER!
11:25 a.m.-noon- MARCHING!
Noon- Dismissed. Wooohooo! I love marching band yet I'm always glad when it's over with too. Especially the marching portion. Twirling is my passion...not the marching.
Ohwell, I got to see my friends. I forgot to mention that I talked to Justin this morning. He's really the only person I have talked to. Well until I got home.
Since I've been home I've talked to Mindy, Justin, and Nora. I've done some ironing. I'm kinda hungry but I don't feel like eating. The only thing I've had in the past 48 hours was a small, tiny spoonful of spaghetti. I'll write more later. Right now I wanna sit here and relax and finish thinking!
