Band Competition -Part 1

On Saturday the 23rd i went and performed in a band competition. Just a few words could explain how this went and you can imagine the rest....IT POURED....FOREVER!!! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!! haha. it started out we met at the high school at 12pm to load up the buses. Me and Jaclyn were there and i was actually sick but wanted to make the best of it. Lexi showed up and decided which bus to ride on. This bus trip was going to be long since we were going to Orem so i knew we needed a good bus. Well the good bus happened to already be pretty much taken up except the front seats werent just as good as going on another bus. We go on the other bus in the back thinking we are all cool and then we notice that nobody cool was on this bus.So we packed up our stuff again and headed back to the cool bus saying that it would just be better to at least be on it in the front. So on we went and on i went getting sick. I WAS NOT FEELING GOOD! I kept on feeling like i was going to barf. We finally arrived at our destination. We sat down in the football field bleachers and watched other bands compete. they were all amazing and looked amazing in their amazing uniforms. I felt stupid. Later on i was treated to a small sprite that saved me from my erupiton of guts all over. I recovered and was read to dominate. We were leaving to our bus to get our instruments. Then it POURED!!! LITERALLLY POURED!!! We were soaked. We warmed up in a soccer field a few blocks away from the football field. It was still pouring. I noticed that we were amazing though without any sissy ponchos and our drums were literally having sychronized rain droplet competitions. Every time the drums would hit a note water droplets would pop up in the air synchronized. We marched out on the field wet since the rain had stopped. We performed on a super muddy slick field but thats alright-we loved the mark it put on us that we were tough. After we did amazingly awesome-urggg..kinda:)- then the announcer said for a standing ovation for us .! I felt special :)
To Be Continued.....
Stay Tuned.
