ok well this entry is going to be dedicated to all the band kids. and im just gonna keep it public instead of friends only.

we had finals yesterday. it was quite sad at first cuz me and am were in tears since it was the seniors last comp. but it got better. we had a good talk before by jake, mr t, mr beach, and bill...so then was our preformance. and all i have to say is holy fucking shit. i was amazed. everyone played their hearts out. it was "yay points CUBED". btw AM, sorry if the tape is messed up cuz of me :-[...so then we watched the rest of the comp which went pretty well...i love watching stoughton. they are absolutely awesome. and THEN we had awards. we got to sit on the track near our drummajors and sarah. EB swept div 1. i was happy for them cuz bill is the man. they got a platinum metal which was amazing. then they started div 2 awards...i was holding kim's hand as they started to annouce high caption awards. new bedford won best guard. then we won best music and everyone cheered and we won best percussion and i was soooo excited...and then they decided to be cool and start off with 8th place and i got nervous. so then it got to like 3rd place and kim and i were gripping each others hand so fucking hard it was riduclous. i think it was weymouth or something who won 3rd. then for 2nd place my heart started pounding. we all thought it was gonna be us. then the announcer said new bedford and it was so unrealistic. i looked at kim and all we could say was "holy shit". THEN for first place it was like time slowed down: "in first place, recieving a platinum medal with the score of 96.0, thats nine six POINT 0 bishop feehan high school" wow. i could not believe it. we fucking got a PLATINUM MEDAL and beat new bedord by 1.2 points. thats absolutely insane. after they said that someone landed on my face, which hurt like a bitch. but its ok cuz all my problems were solved after they announced that. like seriously, i was ready for 2nd place and for the ride home to be depresing as hell cuz of not winning and the seniors leaving, but all that was changed around and it was the most impressive thing ever. we tied for 2nd best score in NESBA and got our first platinum medal and 1st place in the history of feehan. i could not have asked for a better ending to the season. all the seniors-we're gonna miss you next year. i'll be playing my best just to make you guys proud. it hasnt really hit me that you guys are leaving...but when it does i'll be a wreck...
so now i just have some thank you's

kerrie-you are by far the best drum major EVER. i could not have kept myself somewhat sane without you. you always found a way to make me smile and laugh when i needed it most. thanks for an amazing season.

kim-you always gave up your emergency smartie stash to cheer me up. no one else would have done that for me. thank you so much. and of course, you are one awesome vb and you've helped me more that you even know.

ann marie-wow dude. we've had some good times. you're one amazing marimba player. im glad i could share with you. we always had fun making fun of people and laughing our asses off when someone said something ridiculous to cheer up...like "poops and laughs" thanks for making this a year to remember.

jake-i know i never really talked to you alot but you're one hell of a good kid. its not gonna be the same without next year. you always made me laugh when i was in a bad mood. thanks.

mr. beach and matt- you two always made me feel good about myself and not many people can do that. you made me be the best i could be and i really appreciate it.

and of course mr t who is the best music instructor of all time. thank you for everything.

im never going to forget this season. we set school records and i wouldnt be who i am today without all you band kids. you are the greatest. i have so much love for every one of you.

alright well im about to cry so im stopping there.
