Being a Drummer is:

Getting away with things because you're in the back of the room

Being able to eat candy and not mess up your instrument

Relaxing, and/or writing things when the sucky trumpets have to do a measure by themselves

Trying to steal the book of poetry Elliot has…and suspecting that you have something to do with it

Rolling your eyes at the saxophone player who shows off all the time

Listening to the rest of the band when you play when you're not supposed to

Claiming you're the coolest part of the band

Proving that claim true

Looking at the two popular people there and wondering, "How the heck did that happen?"

Cringing at concerts when the other drummers do the wrong tempo

Arguing over who it was that was playing too loudly

Dressing like a Gothic person just to scare the two preps

Still sitting at the back of the room when there is a movie playing and you can sit where you want

Being able to sit in the really cool squeaky chair

Laughing hysterically when your band director makes fun of the saxophones with a sound similar to yyyAAAT!

Snorting in the middle of said laughter

Calling your friend (who is a flute) a sexy elf across the room during band practice

Flipping your tuba friend (who goes to your church) off because the teacher can't see you

That's all for this chapter, bye!
