I know it's been awhile since I've posted, but senior year has been so RIDICULOUSLY busy! haha.

I love senior year so far. Classes are pretty easy. I made all A's and B's this six weeks. =]

Band's going alright. It's more frustrating then usual this year, but that's alright.

We had our first contest yesterday. What a hectic day that was. I was originally going to wake up at 6 o'clock, because I had to go take my SAT's before, but woke up at 5 and couldn't go back to sleep. Too many nerves. We played at 2:45, and I got out of my SAT (which I took in Commerce) at 1:20. So we drove 75 the whole way from Commerce to Mesquite, with me freaking out in the back seat the entire time. We pulled up in the parking lot, I leaped out of the car, mom zipped up my jacket, I threw together my horn, and ran down the hill to the shoot, where the pit (and luckily, my vibraphone) was waiting. There was one band playing, another band about to go on, and then it was us, so I just barely made it. Unfortunately for me, though, not only to my reed crack in the car on the way over, but I didn't have time to warm up. So when my solo came around, it was dry, quiet, and squeaky. A.K.A: AWFUL. Lucky for me, the microphone wasn't turned up, so I don't think the judges heard me, because despite my icky solo, we still made ones, which I was ecstatic about. We got to the stadium at 2:20, and were back out by 3:30, on the road home again.

I finally joined the Twilight band-wagon. And I must say, I can really understand what the fuss is about. Though I'm not a huge fan of vampires, this book...is amazing. It's so detailed, and so written. Now I just have to wait for the movie to come out. I'm hoping that my best friend (who let me read her copy of Twilight) will bring me New Moon tomorrow. I read the sneak-peek in the first book and now I'm SO excited to see what happens.
