Since I don't want to do my chores right now, I'm distracting myself with this. =)
There's five days of school left...yes, count 'em, five. It's totally exciting! I feel like we're already out, though, because the seniors graduated last night. It's so not cool that they get to leave a week earlier than us.
In fact, I was at the senior's graduation last night. The band was invited to play Pomp and Circumstance and some other similar song at their graduation. I was worried about how it would turn out, 'cause our teacher had only given us the music a week or so prior, but the kids that choose to play at the graduation are more dedicated than the others, and so we got more done this way and ended up being fine. =)
The auditorium where this was all held was enormous! It had three different levels to it, and the stage was obviously pretty wide itself. Me and a few of the other band kids had fun running around on the top level of the auditorium, where we felt rather important as we were up higher than anyone else in the auditorium at the time. The people down below looked like ants, practically!
There was probably about 200 kids or so that graduated last night, five of them being from my band, or the orchestra. We weren't supposed to clap or cheer for any of them as their names were called, us being on stage along with those graduating, but it was hard for us to not clap for a few of our buds. Our teacher had threatened us about loosing a good part of our grade if we did so, but I think he came to understand as the night went on, so I doubt any of us lost any points. =) Afterward, we were able to go congratulate our friends before hopping back on the bus and heading home.
...And sadly, that's all I've got to say...I guess I should go clean the bathroom now and whatnot, before 2:00 (graduation party xD). Talk to you later!
