Okay, felt like tooting my own horn here (No pun intended) so ehre's how it goes- got up at nine AM this morning, got back home at about 11:30 PM. Spent the entire day at two marching band competitions. First one, the Ancient City St. Augustine band festival was purely objective. We recieved a superior in Marching, Visual appearance, and music. We recieved a distinguished in auxilary percussion and for our drum major (The guy who conducts everyone). We then proceded to the Citrus Bowl- if you pay any attention to Florida sports, you know what this is- a ginormous cement bowl. Today it had no football teams, but Marching Bands instead (And, I might add, no ****ing hash marks...) There we recieved judging which was based on us compared to other bands which, I will add, are the best in the state of Florida. We recieved an overall rating of Excellent, which I personally think is rather good. For those of you who do not know how band ratings work, I shall explain it to you: From best to worst it goes Distinguished, Superior, Excellent, Good, Poor. At least I think it does... I've never recieved anything below excellent at a competition... So yeah, figured I'd inflate my head there since we did so good at our competition- that and I managed to sort of get a girl friend ... ... ... I'm rather happy about this, did you notice? So anyway, yeah, heap praise upon me, tell me what a wonderful person I am, and pretend that you know what I'm talking about!
