The name of this post makes me chuckle. It was something we said a the Drum Major Academy this summer! lolz Well what does that have to do with anything?
Tonight was my first band competition as Drum Major. Talk about the scariest thing I have done in a while!!! Well, when we got off the field our band director was hinting that we did horrid. (he does that a lot... haha) Ends up we actually did pretty good. 1st place percussion, 1st place color guard, and 3rd place, out of 4 or 5, overall in our division. I was stoked... pretty freaking stoked. I couldn't help but smile when they called out "ROXBORO COMMUNITY SCHOOL!" I wanted to scream in excitement! The only thing I was disappointed in was myself. There is an award for the Drum Major and I wouldn't say I was expecting it, but I wanted it... really bad. When they called 2A (our division) DM winners and my name wasn't one being called, my heart sunk. I was saddened, but it was followed by the color guard and percussion winning, which made my heart extremely happy.
One thing that makes me happy is my band in general. They love me and it makes me so freaking happy that they do because I LOVE THEM! They help me get through things like this. If it wasn't for them, I would have been to nervous to even breathe today! They just make me smile how amazing they are and I love every single bit of them.
Well, there is another competition next week and I think we are going to do even better! That's all I wanted to say for now. Thank you and goodnight! :D
