Dang, I am proud of myself. I've written a heck of a lot this week. Not
like anyone has reviewed, but still. Good on me. Come on people, can I have
some comments? Lol. Must continue the story now.
After dinner we met back up in Brittany and Mouldy's room to talk. All of BLEACH was sitting inside (Brittany/Alex/Laura/Elise/Clara/Hannah) Laura talked about Charlie and Brittany and Hannah chatted about John and Brandon. I threw in my little episode with Zach this morning, and everyone gave their opinions.
"Awww, that's so sweet." Brittany said.
"Pfff, he's a loser." Mouldy added (they went to church together).
"I thought he had a girlfriend." Alex pondered aloud.
As casually as I could manage, I turned and asked her what she meant. "Well I thought he was going out with Leigh Ellen." Thank god, I mentally sighed. I needed some substantial evidence that nothing could happen. Now I was back to my happy place, which, unlike the rest of the world's, was alone.
We went back out to block to begin marching our next song. A small ensemble had been chosen earlier that day at sectionals. Derek, Munchkin, Charlie, Hodges, Zach, and Jermey were the ones to go up to the front and perform at the beginning of the song. With Hodges gone, I, the freshman, was to lead my line.
I've always been one to soak up the spotlight so it thrilled me to think I would be leading all of those people. Then I had to march it and my thoughts changed. I had thirty-six counts to walk just 10 yards. Not only that, but I was to do it backwards. For the sake of many in my line (or arc as it was to turn in to) we marched the first set facing our next spot. It helped slightly, but I was still confused. Even so, I did the best I could and got pretty near my spot. After that first move, it was smooth sailing. I walked back up then over in a right slide. No biggie.
We finished, it seemed, more quickly then we had the other days. Leaving block, we practiced our music under the streetlight as usual. They released us and we made our mad dash back to the showers. I was slower then I had been previous days so the top floor showers were already taken we I got back. I dashed down to the first floor and decided to use the showers there. They were uninhabited so I got my choice. As soon as I stepped in and got the water started others arrived. We laughed at our cunning as we thought of all the people getting cold showers because they hadn't thought to come downstairs.
When I was done I went straight to my room instead of my usual trip to Brittany and Mouldy's room. I sat down on the bed and began listening to Dishwalla while keeping close watch on the door. Soon the chaperones knocked signaling time for bed. I stayed up and wrote in my journal for a little while then gradually I began to get tired. I went over to Clara's bed and sat there staring outside just thinking. I crawled back into bed not knowing the utter disasters that would happen the next day.
A/N. ok the next day is going to be really whack so try and keep up. It was by far my favorite day of band camp.
