Sasha came home that Monday evening very tired, but completely satisfied with the day's happenings. The first day of band camp had gone really well, she thought. She couldn't wait to take a shower, eat dinner, then get online and analyze everything about the day with her best friend, Kaitlin.
Kaitlinbug87: hey! whats up?
Trumpetgurl123: not much, just really tired… you?
Kaitlinbug87: same. How was your first day as drum major!
Trumpetgurl123: haha really good… I think ppl actually respect me kinda
Kaitlinbug87: yeah totally! I hope you dont mind me asking but what was up with you and mark today?
Trumpetgur123l: ohhh… um yeah things arent going well in that department
Kaitlinbug87: ok you better tell me whats wrong… you two are like perfect together!
Trumpetgurl123: well not really… I don't think I like him anymore, I kinda like someone else.
Kaitlinbug87: wha! Who who who?
Trumpetgurl123: I don't really wanna say……
Kaitlinbug87: oh come on im your bff you gotta tell me
Kaitlinbug87: wait… I bet I know who it is
Trumpetgurl123: you do? Omg plz don't tell anyone!
Kaitlinbug87: so you do like charlie! Omg I was right! Whoa
Trumpetgurl123: hangs head in shame
Kaitlinbug87: aw its ok babe, I still luv ya… I mean he is pretty cute you know. But hes asst. band director!
Trumpetgurl123: I know I know…. What am I supposed to do about mark?
Kaitlinbug87: well I say if you don't like him anymore then you need to break up
Trumpetgurl123: I guess so… well I'll handle that tomorrow either before or after camp… meanwhile I need to get some sleep, we got a full day tomorrow
Kaitlinbug87: ok hun see ya tomorrow!
While Sasha was having this conversation with Kaitlin, she was also talking to another good friend. She had been talking online with this guy she met on a marching band message board. They decided they wouldn't tell give each other any personal details about each other. Kind of weird, but Sasha thought he was way cool. She could talk to him about anything and everything.
Musicalchairs101: hey there
Trumpetgurl123: hi how are you?
Musicalchairs101: good but tired, you?
Trumpetgurl123: same, band camp started today
Musicalchairs101: lol same here. Very tiring… how did yours go? First day as drum major and all?
Trumpetgurl123: it was cool
Musicalchairs101: you don't sound very happy. Anything wrong?
Trumpetgurl123: yeah actually… love problems.
Musicalchairs101: care to share? You can talk to me about anything you know
Trumpetgurl123: yeah i guess it couldn't hurt to talk about it. Its so cool how we talk about anything… but yeah, I think I wanna break up with my b/f cause I like someone else.
Musicalchairs101: ohhh that's tough. But if you like someone else, then you should probably end it before you lead him on too long.
Trumpetgurl123: yeah that's what I was thinking. But another problem is…. Well this is embarassing but I don't stand a chance with the guy I like…
Musicalchairs101: Aw I'm sure you have a chance. You're a great girl and fun to talk to, why wouldn't he like you?
Trumpetgurl123: well cause theres an age difference. Hes quite a few years older than me :(
Musicalchairs101: Oh thats kind of a problem… but age aint nothing but a number.
Trumpetgurl123: yeah I know, but…
Musicalchairs101: But what?
Trumpetgurl123: well, lets just say he's a teacher of mine.
Musicalchairs101: ohhh…
Trumpetgurl123: well I'd love to elaborate, but I gotta go… another day of band camp tomorrow
Musicalchairs101: Ok we'll talk about this later. have fun, bye!
Trumpetgurl123: see ya!
