Hey,
I had a LONG day. I got up around 7:30ish for band camp. And I left for band camp at 8:30..I had an embarressing moment during band camp.. My dad put some sunscreen on me because we thought I was going to play on the vibes outside all day and he put some sunscreen on my face so i wouldn't get burned. and my arms plus my legs. But after maybe 2 hours or an hour later My face became red and broke out an allergic reation from the sunscreen..I was soo embarressed! Then my parents had me bring a COOLER to band camp for lunch. I noticed everyone else wasn't bringing a cooler to band camp..and I felt embarressed about bringing a cooler because it was a medium size cooler.
I had a fun day also. We got to stay inside practicing on the vibes, marimba, bells, etc.. And the Woodwinds,Brass, the drumline, and Bass had to practice outside because they march on the feild. My dad heard or saw that the drumline had to do pushups. I was glad i wasn't going to do that today but I'm guessing that we'll have to do pushups either on tuesday or wednesday. On my left hand, underneath my pinky (kinda in the palm but up close to the pinky finger) got a blister from playing the mallets all day. My hands are worn out too. I almost mastered a 200 speed on the vibraphone. But i'm still working on the pedal, the pedal is kinda hard for me since i'm a rookie but i'll learn.
We are also learning a new song called: Wild Things. Its a COOL, AWSOME song!!! I luv it!! We had to pretend to use a cymbal that is attached to the marimba and vibes because we haven't set it up yet. But I think we will later on. The pit members were helping me on a few things on Wild Things. Some of it was pretty easy but when they were helping me it beacame clearer and more easy to understand and easier to play on. I can't wait for tomorrow. All I'm worried about is the excercise that we'll have to do later..
I'll keep you on the updates more when I can..
Hopefully tomorrow..If not, i'm tired and want to go to bed really bad..
