I guess the Kentucky trip is off. It's all right, it's okay. I just give up.
Band camp was so frickin' cool. I got labeled "so frickin' cool" girl in the first day or two and from then on, everything I did was just the same. The fire alarm went off at six a.m. in the dorms, and I was "so frickin' cool" because I was the only person in camp besides Matt who brought their axe out of the building, just in case. I still got stuck with backing up vocal jazz, but I guess that's not as bad as having to have played with the blues band. I did a vocal solo, which was fun, but had to hang out with the vocal kids all the time, which was less fun but still amusing. Also I met an amazing guitar player named Stephen who taught our little clique a bunch of stuff.
Also, it'll be really nice to have friends at school. I'm pretty excited about having people that I know.
My doctor prescribed me new contacts that I leave in for an entire month, but I'm fairly absolutely certain that the woman who doled them out to me gave me two week contacts. I was on my seventeenth day today and just woke up in tears at five a.m. and it was moderately painful. I cried like a baby to my counselor and forced her to look in my eye and she got all ticked off and went back to bed. It's all good now, though. I wore my mom's bifocals all through the concerts today. Check me out, I'm soloing onstage in my camp t-shirt and my dork groove glasses. I had a laugh.
