Random fact about me (@frostysfrenzy I think you’ll get a kick out of this!). Back in high school, many years ago, my marching band played both national anthems on the field at an Orioles vs. Blue Jays game in Toronto.

My Friends
Today.... we marching unit people Band Together.
https://discord.gg/ttGpZGW
Join the marching unit discord and join me in geeking about things and complaining about band camp. Any age, anyone can join (gotta be nice yknow) and guard, band, poms, anybody in marching unit can join.
Do you ever feel so randomly let down by something that you want to cry? Ugh, that’s where I’m at. I’ve been going through things in my room (it’s awful, i have way too much stuff), and I came across a sealed “video cd” from Beyond Main Street. I thought it was the copy of my high school marching band marching down Main Street at the Magic Kingdom in spring of 2000. Turns out it’s just a promo for the people that make the BMS videos. The copy of the parade must be somewhere else. I really wanted to see my marching unit perform, and now that I can’t i’m really disappointed and want to cry. I have a VHS of Homecoming 1998, but my VCR is a pain in the ass. This is one of the things that sucks about having done cool stuff in the stone age, it isn’t all over the internet. :(
At least I’m feeling stuff, so maybe the Vraylar is helping?
Is it really that hard...?
sooo yesterday i had my first band competition, although my band is in a non competitive collision. But we performed and it was great. Honestly if this is how the season is gonna be I'm forever doing band.
Fun Fact
The California State Board of Education requires that students in grades 7-12 get a minimum of 400 minutes of physical education every 10 days. If Marching Unit practice is two hours a day, four days a week, then I would get 480 minutes in 4 days. Including the approximate 35-40 minutes every Tuesday for PT, then I would get at least 515 minutes in 4 days. If I need 400 every 10 days to get credit, then I should be good since I get at least 1235 minutes per day. I get 3 times the minimum physical education requirements needed for credits.
After being constantly surrounded by MU kids for hours on end the last five days, it feels rather lonely without them.
Just need to get some stuff out.
Omg, I feel so terrible right now, like I don't even.
MU participated in a parade today, and on the way there my mom and I got into a car accident. We accidentally turned into the wrong street, and when we were turning around we were passing an intersection at the main road the same time another car was and we got hit.
There was a stop sign for us at the point intersection but neither of us saw it because there was this huge ass truck parked right in front of the fucking stop sign. Like WHAT THE HELL. Why would you park right in front of a fucking stop sign. Newsflash Mr. Truck Driver, stop signs are sort of fucking important. You shouldn't fucking obstruct them.
The other car hit us on my side of the car, and it was this cute old man and I felt so sorry for him. I was so scared though, I didn't know what would happen. When I got out of the car, I was shaking so bad, but I couldn't actually like freak-out or anything. I went to check if the guy was okay and I traded information with him and helped him call his nephew while my mom didn't help at all.
Like what the fuck, Mom. I know that it was a bad moment for you too, but seriously, I shouldn't have to take responsibility at a moment like this. And then, I she made me fucking walk the rest of the way to where the parade started and then I had to get into parade mode, except it totally didn't work because I was messing up left-and-right, and our feature, which we performed in front of a ton of people, was even worse.
I feel like shit right now and all I want to do is curl up and like cry but I can't because I have a fucking Spanish worksheet to finish and two tests to study for, plus Lovely Auntie is still here and I don't want to like do something stupid while we have people over.
Just. Can it be next weekend already?
