No more being a bum!

Remember when I said that I was gonna be in Stevenson's marching band?
Yeah. It didn't work out. I didn't have reliable means of transportation so, oh well. I'll join next year when I have more experience with driving. Bummer, but it worked out in my favour. If I had to drive all the way to Stevenson, I probably would've caused an accident or something. :P
What else...oh! I dunno if I wrote this yet, bu I'm getting my license on September 10th! Hopefully D:
Since for parraell parking, if you hit the curb it's okay, as long as you don't roundhouse slam into the curb, you won't really loose points.Plus, you also have 3 minutes to park. So, I'm kinda confident about this test.
As the title entails, I'm not going to be a bum anymore because I start work tomorrow! I'm training as a waitress at Baugher's Resturant. I'm really excited and nervous. I hope I don't mess up or anything, but fortunately, they're putting me in the back room where there are less people so I don't get overwhelmed. :D It's a shame though, cause I have to wake up at like, six. Ugh.
I also start college on Tuesday! I only have one class though, English. I was also supposed to take a math class but it was interfering with Stevenson rehearsals so I dropped it. Of course, like two days later, I had to tell Lortz that I wasn't going to be in the band so I dropped that class for nothing. Oh well, I hate math anyway. :D
I think that's it. I hope I can remember to update about my adventures at Baugher's and my English class. I only have it on Tuesday and Thursdays from 5:00 to 6:50. :D Okay, that's really it!

OH MY GOD.

So I was on the interwebz today per usual and my band director from High School messaged me on Facebook. He said that the new marching band at Stevenson University needs trumpets and mellis. Now, if you REALLY knew me, you would know that I have been missing band TERRIBLY since...our last competition, basically. Now, I of course had a panic attack! Cause one, band director talking to me?, two, MARCHING BAND, and three, FREE OFFER TO THOSE NOT AT STEVENSON. So, oh lawd. 

The only thing that is bugging me is that band camp is during my high school's preview show and my bestest friend's birthday. But...I could never turn down an opportunity like this. I'll just make it up to him another time and see WHS another time as well.

Also, my classes are towards the evening, and so are rehearsals. I'm not missing any rehearsals, that's for sure. So I guess I'll have to move the classes to the morning. 
Lortz is gonna post more detailed dates next week, and I'm glad cause that schedule was so confusing to read!

I'M SO EXCITED.

If my classes are moved back, I get my dad's permission, and I get more details about this, I can join and live through band for another (hopefully) four years! 

So, yeah. I'm absolutely psyched!
