I play the clarinet. I named him Clari! ;D By November we can choose to master this "District Band" Song and I HATE IT. It's all natural's this flat's that and don't forget sharps.... But whenever there is a band practice opportunity I'm in! I'm also learning to play the Super Mario Brothers theme. It's so much fun! On youtube there is this 8 year-old girl who plays like 1000000000000000000 times better than me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlwK8-xW44c"Cruella De Vil" www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FRd6FLpCZw&mode=related&search="Beauty and the Beast" www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YoSVgJAGc0&mode=related&search=Johann Pachelbel's "Canon" One time like half of the class wasn't paying attention, and my band director (My sister and I know her very well) said "I could stand here in the front of the room and say there is a purple dragon flying in the corner. And you guys still would be like 'Wha?'" I thought that was purtty funny.

Aaaarrrggghh! I had the worst nightmare last night! i dreamt that it was our band trip to Rome, and our Drum Major and Assistant Drum major woke us all up at 3:29 am to tell us that we weren't doing the field show. Instead we were going to do a tribute to Brittany Spears and Sonny and Cher. It was a horrifing dream...Probably had to do with reading TFBC comics before earlier...

^Lol! That's awesome XD Our majorettes always freak out before contest, and tell us that if we get off-tempo, they'll kill us...they just don't take into consideration the fact that they can't stay together even if we were going the right tempo kolibri [thread killer]: Yikes, that's a scary dream ;D

I'm a band geek!! Or I used to be. Now I'm in orchestra. I've played the flute for three years. I'M WITH THE BAND. Everyone in my band class used to say, "One time, at band camp..." on a regular basis. Good times. I miss the band so much. But then I moved....

All of my friends but one play band, but only one is as geeky as me! About half of the time in band we don't even keep on the subject of band.
One time at halftime at a football game, my band-geek friend and I were watching the band and I said: "One day that will be us" She said "Yep...OH! I SEE THE FLUTES!!" "I see the CLAR-I-NETS!"
Good times...good times.

I have laryngitis and a sore throat. So I can't play my clarinet even though I really really really want to. It sucks. Whenever our whole band plays (Woodwinds with brass and percussion) the trumpets play way too loud and the drums always mess up. I hate it. Sometimes I can't even hear myself!
