Dec. 19th, 2006 12:32 amOkay, guys, I'm leaving for Breckenridge tomorrow morning. If you need me, you can call the cell, I'll have it with me. Or if you just wanna chat, that works, too. Because mostly I'll be absorbed in my magazines and books, and hopefully not too much skiing, lol. There will hopefully be a Christmas post, since I didn't get to do Halloween, and since there are coffee bars with internet in the area. Just have to convince my mom to take me, or whatnot. If not, there will be a post when I return on the 26th.
Anyway! Went to Southwind last weekend, and it was a lot better than Phantom's camp. Although, it was really empty (a lot of brass holes, and the guard doesn't start yet) and kind of felt immature, because I'm pretty sure that half or more than half of the people I talked to were younger than me. A 15 year old girl being the youngest, though she's marched one year of corps. But there were tons of guys who looked like they could be freshmen, sophomores in high school! Or they WERE! Who knows, but it still creeped me the hell out. But anyway, I pretty much have a spot there. I have the horn (so shiiinyyyy) here with me, and the paperwork, but I didn't officially get offered a contract, apparently? I don't know, I'm not really sure what that's all about. But I'm on third trumpet for now, though it kind of sucked because these kids were younger than me I'm assuming were only on second and whatnot because they have range and were at the earlier camp, because... I dunno, it was weird. At any rate. Apparently SW is getting new uniforms AND new hats (BOO to losing the sharkos, which, by the way, IS the BEST name EVER for a hat, and is extremely clever), so I really don't know about that. I just am hoping they don't look way gay. ALSO, I won't be allowed to take a cell phone on tour. FUUUUCK. I might still see if I can get that internet card for my computer through Verizon... that way I can still get internet a little. If not, I'm going to have to find someone to check my friends page and whatnot and print out updates or save the pages as hard files or something. I dunno.
Anyway, I still have to pack and whatnot.
I am feeling so apathetic right now. *sigh*
