Band and recent happenings?

Oh, hey there.

I'm sorry I've been kind of neglecting this lately.

I'm thankful we finally have a couple followers.

Anyways, marching band camp has started. It's from 8 AM to 4:30 PM, with an hour long lunch break in between. Basically, it's like school, only you just practice instruments. Ben and I are in the pit (xylophone, vibraphone, cymbals, marimba, congas, etc.). It's kind of fun sometimes, but sometimes it's just so boring and frustrating. I'm probably the worst in the section because unfortunately, we've been playing a lot of chromatic scales. I play the vibraphone a lot, and it's larger than the glockenspiel, which is what I played for most of last year, which makes it difficult for me to get used to, causing my difficulties in playing the chromatic scales.

Bleh. I'm too lazy to write anymore. I'm busy planning a friend's birthday celebration! Eeee!
