SLEEP!!!
Ahhh. Sleep. That joyous thing I know nothing of. I woke up at like 5:45 on a saturday. A Saturday of all days, I had to be up early! How dumb is that? Sigh. Anyways, I get up, get ready and head to the High School to catch the bus that will take us to Solo and Ensemble. Well, my idiotic band director only had one bus for both of our bands. 100 plus kids, a ton of instruments, and one bus. I don't think we're gonna fit, but don't tell Him (i.e. Ianelli) that. Anyways, we all loaded onto the bus to find... what do you know... we don't fit. So Ianelli told the woodwinds to get off the bus and the brass to stay. Which is totally retarted because woodwinds perform first. All of us woodwinds stayed in the band room waiting for the bus to come back, when it finally did, we all packed on and took the trip up. The rest after that is pretty much history. We got there, waited around, warmed up, performed, waited awhile and then took the bus home. I did watch the brass section, and second woodwind group. We did pretty well. Our Concert band percussion got a 3 which is not too bad, but not great. Our first woodwind group in concert band got a2 and our second woodwind group got a 1. Our concertband brass section got a 2. So overall, our bands didn't do too bad.
After I get home, we go to Krogers, then head home. Daddy made dinner, mac and cheese, and then we watched a movie. About halfway through, I fell asleep. Go figure. And didn't wake up for a whole three hours.
Well. Now that I'm done ranting, I'm gonna go now.
Peace Out ya'll.

Exams Are OVER!!!!
Wow. I am so excited. Exams are finally over and the school day will go back to normal. Well... at least as normal as it can get. We spent about two hours playing so we could practice for Solo and Ensemble. I really don't think we got much done though. Tonight we have Pep Band, and of course, tomorrow is Solo and Ensemble. I have to get up really early tomorrow so I can catch the bus at seven. Seven o'clock in the morning is way to early to be even thinking of band, but hey, that's how it goes.

Regular Blah
Today went very well. All I had was my science exam, then lunch, and then... I left! Yahoo! My Grandma and Grandpa came and got me, and took me out to eat. Wendy's of course... Yummy! I came home and watched Seabiscuit, my favorite horse movie. I sat around being lazy. My new hiking boots did come. They're comphy and really nice. I like them. The best part is they are waterproof, which my barn boots are not. Definately not good for snow. I eventually logged online and had fun looking for horse pictures. I eventually found one, which is the one I posted here earlier.
Ahhh. The horsey world. The best place in the world. I mean, you'd think that just having great friends or something is all you need, but... WRONG! If you're a horse person, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. The way a horse just consumes your life can be a pain at times, but is totally worth it. When your out riding, it's enchanting. You feal like your in another world. Of course, I get that feeling just being in the barn. When your grooming, your bonding with your horse, which is what makes it special. Okay I know I'm nuts, but I actually like barn chores. After a while, they become methodical, so you can get lost in thought as you work. You don't even have to think about it.
I had better end my horse rant now, or you'll be here reading forever.

Not Such A Chatterbox
Normally I could blab and blab as much as I want, but I'm tired right now. We had exams today. First day of three done and gone. Tomorrow I just have a Science exam, and then I get to go home early! I'm excited. I get to sleep in a little, and then I get to leave early! I'm just not too happy about it being a science test. I hate science, and this is going to be hard.
I must be off!
