I went to the leadership thing...pretty much very boring. Interviews are next week. I doubt I'll get it, but that wouldn't stop me. Must brainstorm on what to say after I get some sleep. Today either has been very boring, or I'm just yawning a LOT (to the point where it looks like I'm crying from the tears), but it's a high possibility it's both. The leadership thing didn't help the boredom and tiredness.

I just came back from band camp. Three days go by too quickly. After camp we went to Lonsdale Quay and performed there.
So...we're going to the National Music Festival on next Saturday...wish us luck! Out of curiosity, what pieces have you guys been doing lately? |

nope, no tryouts for us. we have auditions for class placement, but only in 8th grade, before coming into high school, then we never try out or audition for anything but leadership or jazz band and whatnot again

The key you use on your right hand for F sharp is messed up, though. It's leaky. |
