Life Things

Well last week was definitely a long one. We had our final junior high band concert (8th grade is considered the last year for junior high here), performed for 6th graders, performed for veterans who received the Medal of Honor, and I got my hair done today!

So most of the stuff happened on Friday. First thing we did Friday was perform for 6th graders. I did so horribly omg I'm glad no one really heard me.

Later on in the day, we performed for the veterans that came, and it was really cool. They were proud of us for playing "The Star-Spangled Banner" so well, and it was a real honor for them to acknowledge that! I find it always good to remember that it's because of people like them that we are a free country.

Then, after school, we performed a THIRD time that day, and we did an incredible job! The tuba players omg!!! They played SOOOOO well! I'm not just saying that because I'm friends with one of them, but because they really did rock the night. Overall, we did really well. :D

Oh, and I found out on Monday that I MADE THE SYMPHONIC BAND AT THE HIGH SCHOOL!!! Not the 9th grade one, I mean THE symphonic band! The bands are divided from the best players in the wind ensemble (btw, two people I know made it into that, which is highly unlikely for freshmen), followed by the symphonic band, which is followed by the concert band, and then it goes down to the freshman symphonic band and then the freshman concert band. I was SOOO happy!!!! I literally ran around the house screaming XD!!

And finally, I got my hair done today. I got the under layers of my hair died black, including the under layer of my bangs. It turned out SOOO well!!! I was so happy with the hairdresser's job!

So yeah, that's pretty much it for now. I made the all A honor roll, and I have another award (that I don't know what will be for) that I'll get on Thursday at the awards assembly. We also visit the high school on Friday.

Bye for now!
