Ever had something that just makes you happy? It can be a person or a place, or even a thing. Some may like books and reading makes them happy, or maybe it's that one guy that you can never get enough of.Personally for me it's colorguard. I guess that it is the only thing that has made me feel that I'm good at something. There is no feeling that can ever compare to that feeling that you get when you are on the field set to begin the show...the nerves and the energy could just swallow you up and take you over. Yet you have to stay calm, composed and perfect. Then the feeling at the end...the way that you can't remeber anything that happened in the last eight minutes of your life....thats the feeling that I live for. You are on top of the world and nothing can change that for atleast the next ten minutes while everyone else around you is just as tired and just as amazed at themselves.
And eventually you are all one big family. Yeah, one very crazy, diffrent, slightly messed up family, but a family none the less. You have laughed together, cried together, and felt like you were going to die when you have a five hour marching block ahead of you. But you have bonded because of the pain. You have become this force that no one can break. And these moments with my guard family, and my band family, are the moments that I really do not ever want to forget.
Sorry about the lack of updates. I went camping for my family reunion and then I went straight into pre-band camp. Nine hours a day of marching which will lead into next week which is thirteen hours a day for six days. Crazyness....But I love it!!!!
Love you all. And have a fantastic week!!!!
