Band Geeks

Just got my elegibility letter for NHS. The application packet is 9 pages. This is literally going to take me so long. fml in a bittersweet kinda way, cause it's still National Freakin Honor Society.

American Idiot the musical is coming to the Orpheum next season. So is Blue Man Group. Tickets are so #1 on my birthday list. So far...

Speaking of American Idiot, 21 Guns is such a great song. Most of that album is just bomb. I need some synonyms for "great". Now that I'm thinking about it though, there is definitely no shortage of them. Lets look at some, shall we?
-Bomb
-Sweet
-Totally Awesome
-Sick
-Supermegafoxyawesomhot
- Amazing
-Fantastic
and on, and on. 3rd and 5th are my faves though... obviously.

Zac Quote by his own request: "Oh really, you were walking? You're sure you weren't running? Or jogging? You're sure you were just walking?" (Sorry I tend to tune you out sometimes, so I can't really remember what you said...burn)

Do people still say "burn"? No? Oh...well I do frequently.

Monday night: -Hour and a half soccer game
- Two hour drum line rehearsal
- Spotlight Award Performance
And all I can make it to is one. Which am I choosing to go to? Well let me lay it out for you this way:
- I have soccer twice a week until the endish of July, and I only play recreationally.
- I have a full week of 9-5 drum line rehearsals the next week.
- I will probably never get to perform onstage at the Orpheum ever again.
Take a guess.

I looked at my blog stats for the first time yesterday, and turns out there have been people that have read my blog from like 5 assorted European countries.

I dropped APUSH next year to take 4x. Worst decision ever? At least I won't have summer reading :)

The people sitting next to me and my friends at the dance recital we went to tonight were amazing. First, this like 90-year-old lady asks if she can sit in the seats next to us, then proceeds to climb over them from the row behind us. Then, in the middle of one of the dances where the dancer was doing a series of mildly difficult moves, they exclaim "OH, YES!" out of nowhere. And finally, they tried to start clapping along with the music, but it was so off and at such awkward times, that they just sounded awful. So funny. Oh, and the recital was pretty excellent too ;)

I'm planning on re-watching AVPM, AVPS, and Starship this summer with no regrets.

I've lost interest in Saturday Night Live. Except when Justin Timberlake is on. That studly man.

Bugs are just starting to come out of their magical winter hiding places and it is the most annoying thing ever. That is literally the only thing I don't like about warm weather. Yea, humidity sucks, but it is waaaaay better than sub-zero temperatures in my opinion. Except when you're riding to a graduation ceremony in long black jeans and a long sleeve black shirt in a crowed bus with 40-some other band kids and their instruments for like 40 minutes.

Speaking of graduation, it wasn't as bad as everyone said it was going to be. Then again, I didn't play during Pomp and Circumstance, and when our principal's speech got boring, I started playing rock, paper, scissors with Ally. My friend in the audience said that whenever a band kid's name was called, there was an audible increase in the cheering level from the band. Oh, band kids...

I don't know if I can handle three more days of school. In my mind, summer has been in full swing for about two weeks.

I'll close by saying a heartfelt goodbye to my senior friends, especially Alese, Nina, and Alex. I'm going to miss you guys so much, but I'm sure since at least 2 of you are staying pretty close, I'll still be able to see/talk to you guys enough. Maybe I'll get a skype. Anyway, best of luck to you all. Bon nuit!

  2. It's just so much writing, and all I can think about right now is summer. And come on, you know it was a joke.
