I marched Surf last summer and Iām going back this summer and he knows that. so I was just likeĀ āUh well Iām actually doing my second year of DCI this summer with Surfā and then he was likeĀ āOh but thatās just Surf, I meant like a good DCI corps though, like Glassmen or somethingā And I didnāt want to get into a huge debate with him so I just was likeĀ ādude, Glassmen doesnāt even exist anymoreā
BUT YEAh. Iām just so sick and tired of people who clearly know nothing about the activity shit talk Surf because they just assume that since we donāt place well competitively we donāt work hard or we arenāt good. Like, he hasnāt even seen a Surf show, ever. Itās just really fucking shitty when someone manages to discredit all of the sweat, passion, tears, pain, time, and money I put into marching. And I know he knows hardly anything about drum corps so his opinion/lack of knowledge really shouldnāt irritate me as much as it is, but I think itās a culmination of lots of people thinking that lower corps like Surf are lame and pathetic and stuff. Like, Iāve met many people that I march with at other places tell me Iām wasting my money at Surf, or that theyād never spend that much money to not make semifinals, or that Surf isnāt worth it, or that they think I could march somewhere so much better. Like, it just really hurts because they donāt know or care how much this summer with Surf changed my life in so many fucking ways that I donāt even want to begin to list because there are so many. Iām not in this activity to fucking get a medal or make finals, Iām in this activity for personal growth, in so many different ways, and I have gained SO much from marching Surf and thatās gonna happen again this summer.Ā
