BAND CAMP CONCERT


There's me in the yellow.

Band Camp Days 4 and 5

    Shallowsister was right!  Band Camp did have a happy ending!  Today was the concert and now Band Camp is officially OVER.  When I finally figured out the songs it became a lot easier.  BUT I AM NEVER GOING BACK.  NEVER EVER EVER.  NEVER.

Band Camp Day 3

   Today was MUCH better.  Last night I had practiced some more and wrote down all my notes, so it was way easier.  I actually had FUN today! :)

Band Camp Day 2

   Okay, so today wasn't really any better.  I got there late, and pretty much forgot all the notes I learned last night.  Plus, all the notes are really high, and I was having trouble hitting them.  Anyways...  I feel like I'm complaining... a lot.

Band Camp

 For all of this week I will be going to Band Camp.  Yay!  So today was my first day, and I figured out that Band Camp is a total waste of my time.  No yay.  I got all registered and I played a scale, badly.  So I think I got put in the Beginner group, but they didn't actually tell me.  When I got to my first class, they handed us out some music to play for the concert on Friday.  I took one look at the notes, and knew that this was way too advanced for me.  We started practicing, and I didn't know ANY of the notes.  So I pretended to play along with everybody.  Then pretty soon I got tired of the teachers yelling at the Trumpet section that we need to be louder.  So I gave up pretending that I was playing.  And sat there.  For three hours.  Today I am going to try and figure out some of the notes, so I might actually  have fun tomorrow.  Wish me luck.
