BCG At Mt. Olive

Oh, goodness. I have the itis! Tonight was the very first time, in all four years of my marching band experience, that I went out to eat after a competition. It was very nice, despite the fact that Deejay couldn't make it. Back from the competition, we were chilling back. We headed to Applebee's to enjoy some food. Emily, Ana, nor myself had been there in a while so it was definitely good opportunity. At first, I only wanted dessert, but we all ended up sharing two entrees and two appetizers. It was tasty, but before we knew it, keeping our eyes fully opened was a great challenge.

Back-tracking to the beginning of the day, I really wasn't looking forward to starting the day early and cold. Rehearsal began at 8AM and I really wasn't in a motivational mood. Thankfully, the rehearsal was short [due to the fb game]. Unfortunately, i twas so cold that during the final run-through, I felt like I was already having an asthma attack with a side of deaaath. It was hard but we got through.

When the competition strolled around, a fear or discomfort regarding the wind rose. When we first got there, I had to pee very band, on top of the fact that I went right before leaving. We tried to advise the guard not to fear the wind and to make up with great performance. Though our show was not perfect because of the ridiculous wind, we were still commended for our efforts. Hrm, perhaps that be why we received the Best Colorguard Caption with our first place! woot. Photo is from the competition. I put the swirl on the wrong side.
