"Just whenI feel thiscrazyworld is gonnabringme down...
That's when your smile comes around."
So, on Monday, I offically become a Sophmore in High School! (YAY!!!!) This summer could have not gone by more quickly. I mean between the hospital (a story for a different day) and band camp, which just ended on Wednesday, I really haven't been able to do anything at all.
You may probably be wondering, "Another band kid! YAY! What does she play?!"
Well, to honestly answer your question, I play clarinet <3, which I have been playing for about seven to eight years, give or take a few. I also am close to becoming section leader, which I will hope will happen next year.
Anyways, I love marching band, so band camp was actually pretty fun this summer.
Next year, though, I am going to Europe on a twenty-two day vacation for a exclusive band trip.
So, I think I'll be signing off, for today.
Briarpaw.

Started school on Monday and already this girl is dead tired. Though, my schedule is pretty nice in the way of how far I need to walk, the classes are quite rigerous.
So, yesterday, I picked up my schedule from the office and looked over it and low and behold,"Wind Ensemble," was printed on the line for formal band.
To some of you, this may not seem as though it is a big deal but in my band, it means you are a very good player. YAY!
i'm in wind ensemble at my school, too. i'm excited. it's a tough course though. good luck this year. ^^ i don't enjoy high school all that much. since my band friends dont always mingle with my sports friends and dont mingle with my school friends. not to mention all my friends are juniors and seniors...

okay, then. unfortunately loving an idiot who doesn't love me back. but i'm not falling. i just kind of... am. .
Sometimes I feel that somepeople need to high-five their face.... with a chair. I'm serious, really. These people can be so irritating that I causes me face palm myself in pure humiliation, and they have unintentionally ruined my day. This is the quickest version:
During the night, my cat had yarped all over my comforter that covered my bed. What a great thing to wake up to in the morning, huh? I cleaned that up and proceded to get ready for school. SKIPITY SKIP SKIP to fifth period, which is Wind Ensemble. wahoo... So, after playing the warm up music with the rest of my section, which is the Clarinets, low and behold the "clarinet prodigy" son's bottom keys fall off of his clarinet. (back story on "clarinet prodigy": So, according to my band director, the boy is amazing at classical music. I have yet to hear him play anything remotelly "amazing" yet, but that's probably the jelousy seeping through me. Anyway, none of my section like him because he was allowed entrance to the land of Ensemble without trying out. Maybe, he will be kicked out second semester. hehe. :) ) Laughing as I stood up to play the opening movement of our show, he whined at me that he couldn't fix his own instrument. I mean, the "boy wonder" has been playing since he was in third grade can't even fix a little mishap with the keys? Come on! SKIPITY SKIP SKIP again and we arrive at seething underbelly which is Marching Band. So, there I am... waiting to go onto the next set after the visual, and suddenly one of the clarinets falls as we march backwards. Then another... almost like dominos. After we finish the rept, my friend who fell... lets call her 'Amanda', starts to get all up in the grill of the person next to me because said person announced as 'Amanda' was marching to stop, which caused her to fall. My other section leader almost loses it as she yells at them to shut up and leave the drama off of the field. *shakes head* And you didn't think band was drama?

Hahahha I love reading your journal! Your voice is so funny and the way you document things is just interesting to read. I've never been a bandie or anything (trumpet for a year in 6th grade doesn't reaally count) but I see that you guys are probably really family-tight, like my theatre group, which is something I can compare it to! So I actually understand kind of what you're talking about haha (: The "prodigy" sounds hilarious hehe. And frustrating :( Anyways I liked sophomore year for the most part. I hope it's going well for you too!
hello, world...this is the new and improved me calling...i am who i am. but you don't know this, world, and i would like to show it to you.
I've been doing a lot of soul searching during the weeks passed and come up with a few things. I feel change is good, if your afraid of changes... one cannot proceed to live life. One... I have a problem with confidence. There. It's finally out. On the outside, I might seem to be over-zealous and ubber confident, but the truth is that I am just a girl. Two... I can be quite boastfull and instead of making myself look good, I tend to cut myself image down in my friends' eyes. I feel that this is one reason to why some of friends do not like me as much as they used to. Three... I am not compatible with anyone. Period. It's just so true. When someone tries to get close to me, I block them out of my mind and my heart, so I can't be broken again. You want to know what the worst thing is, though? I know that if I keep on this type of road... I might never come back.
world?...it's me again. i'm slipping through the cracks... broken.
I walk a lonely road The only one that I have ever known.
i know...feel..that something is missing from me. something called...faith. no not in God or Jesus... but in love.... i don't know quite what it is yet or when it will get here. but i feel a sense of abandonment from everyone and everything in the world. is it wrong to wish for something that is a distant 'star'? i'm growing up too fast, world. when will he get here?
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'til then I walk alone
