Things I learned on Spring Trip:
Doing four parades in one day is awesome!
Charter buses are way more comfortable
Don't open the windows on the highway
You're not marching right unless it hurts to breathe
Don't sit in the wet grass in your uniform
Don't be surprised when your two best friends like each other
Baseball games are great for catching up on sleep
Seattle has a lot of tunnels
Memorize your music before the parade
You gradually get better the more parades you do
Don't ever let people say that you are weak
You really shouldn't let people hit on your drum major
Always address your section leader "Oh great and wise section leader!" right before you insult them
Sit by friends on the bus
Don't try to play complicated card games on the bus
Cotton candy in the hands of trumpets will be really disgusting
Sitting on the bus doing nothing for an hour is really boring
Everyone will be cranky after staying up way past lights out
Don't wake sleeping people to tell them something very random, they won't take it very well
You will be sunburned and tired after a day of marching
Everyone has hat hair after four parades
When you finally get to change, you will feel so nice
You will be sad when the seniors are celebrating hanging up their uniforms for the last time
Band moms pick really good restaurants for you to eat at
Continental breakfast is really gross
Don't answer the phone at 6 in the morning
Band moms are nice
The best hugs happen when you're in your marching band uniform
When you're on a band trip, you never want it to end
