i take band. i an a saxophone player(alto). its pretty fun except for the fact that i am last chair. but thats pretty cool i guess... lol actually i couldnt care less. my teacher has been gone for the past 3 class periods which is pretty cool because nowadays i guess nobody knows how to conduct or something. so we have had free period for 2 hours every other day when we have band. its pretty fun! plus, i have been perfecting my rifle. for colorguard. i can spin it really well now and im hoping to make the weapon line next season.if not, whatever. flags are prettier anyways. :P
then during this class, my best friend, brooke, was trying to learn a soccer flip, throw-in thingy, if you know what i mean. so i was helping her do a handstand-bridge-stand thing and then turn it into a front handspring. while i was teaching her the standing up part, i wanted to do the handstand. and it was perfect. i was so proud of it.
ok well thats all for that story. i hope my teacher comes back soon. kinda. these free periods are fun. <3

They might shut down the band program? That would suck, unless you don't like band, which you should. I loved band, i'm a former band geek! I agree flags are prettier, but rifles are much cooler. Well, good luck!
i know exactly about the flags and rifles. i do like band and even if i didnt, that would mean shutting down colorguard as well. that would suck.
haha she was telling me that her quads hurt from doing those!! and we got into this whole conversations of which muscle groups you use to pull yourself up when you do em... :]
and now I get it. finally! I think like a week ago (?) she said that she thought the soccer flip throw-ins were awesome. and then she told me she was doing front handsprings in band with you... and now it makes sense! haha :]
I kinda regret [notice the word kinda] not being in band anymore, and I hope they dont shut it down. Mainly because that would just be stupid. Leigh's supposed to have an 'excellent music program'! they're telling the elementary and middle school band students that, so a lot of them want to go to leigh. It'd suck if they shut it down...
it would suck. and if they dont, do you know how over whelmed with happiness he would be? our tuba player, sucks! lol we need you!!
Good words.
