today was an ordinary day. nothing special.
except we had a really whack schedule. it wasn't that baad.
HMMM, i really need to go shopping. but that's gonna happen
this saturdaaay ! i'm going accesory shopping with jamieelee <3
&then we'll come home and have some FUNFUNFUN !
so, afterschool i had drumline PRIVATE LESSONS.
and JENNIE CHANG came ! i'm so glad she's going to ayala now .
i missed her sososomuch. but, i'm kinda scared because. there is about
five us trying out for mallets. and they are only taking TWO. but then again,
ryan started to get my hopes up by telling me that they might EXPAND the pit and battery. meaning that they will get more equipment which means they will take moree peoplee ! hopefully this is true. MAN, ayala excercies are pretty touch. Scales are confusing because the old scales that i know and have been playing for two years are like, stuck to me. The muscle memory i have from that, is NOT helpig me with learning the ayala scales. LEGO BLOCKS. it's a funn excercise. i like it (: but the triplet part keeps throwing me off. aish. and i still have to learn the notes for the next part. FRIED RICE, hehehe, what a funny name. it's a LATERAL excerice. dislikedislikeDISLIKE. anyways, clinics are TWO weeks away! and auditions are THREE weeks away! i have to work my ass off to get into that toppp gold medalist school. enough about drumline, on to maah friends. idk, i feel like everyone is hating on me. like literally, the 3 people i thought i was closest too, and like two other people, are giving me this vibe that they just dont wanna be near me. maybe, we weren't meant to be bestfriends. idontknow. i guess time can only tell. and this one other girl, me an her are TIGHT. i like her haha. but, she's not going to AYALA so yeah that sucks. but me and her will keep in touch! i hope haha. jamielee will always be my bestfriend, but idk. we aren't in the same group of friends, or have mutual friends, so it might be a little hard. i guess i'll wait till highschool to find that ONE bestfriend. but who knows when that will happen. i guess when it comes to friends right now...it sucksass.
i'll give it some time. not get so paranoid and whatnot. anyways, i'm tired.
it's ten'oclock. i played wii fit plus, and i need to study for the civil war test tomorrow. ugh.
well goooodnight !

EXHAUSTED.
today was such a long day. i am exhuasted, but i thought i'd blog about my thoughts before i go to bed.
so today was SHOWCASE. and we totally crashed and burned the performace, but that's okay cause it wasn't judged. it was supposed ot be fun. & of course i watched AYALA. they are supergood . i hope i get there this fall. CHINO highschool was also very very goood. and i finally have some respect for the colorguard. they are very talented, and go through lots of hard work for a good show. so props to colorguard. HMM, i've noticed that, when your in pit and you play some really cool part/solo or anything, people don't clap. they dont even care. but when your in battery and you play something REALLY SMALL that gets their attention, they go crazy. so unfair. but it's alright, i love the part i play, and as long as i feel like it was great, i will be fine. auditions! i'm scared, terrified actually. i really want to make it in. OH, and the bunny today made no effort to say hello. I shouuldn't anticipate so much huh. I mean, he's like HIM. something unattainable. i guess older people, dont dig younger girls. oh well. he can just be my eyecandddy x) i dont mind that eitheer haha. whatelse, OH, i'm still freakingout over somethings, and i'm hoping for the best. but i can't control what people think, or do. i just hope she keeps her word, and means what she said.
otherwise, my arms are SORE and i am TIRED.
so goodnight to anyone who actually reads this pointless thing.

041710;
what a funfunfun-ish day.
WELL, i guess the whole day kinda revolved around drumline.
i payed 24$ to watch the WGI DAYTON, OHIO performances ONLINE.
it was money spent for a good reason .
Jamie Lee and Ryan Aguilar were supposed to come over and watch it with me,
but Ryan ended up going to Six Flags, and couldn't make it.
JAMIE did come luckily (:
we walked to fresh&easy and bought FUNFETTI cake and CHOCOLATE icecream.
so DELISH ! & then we just watched drumline shows for the rest of the time.
We watched alot of schools, but one i have to point out in particular is...
AYALA HIGHSCHOOL. yes, it is a bias, but whatever.
they were AMAZING. annd, me and jamie had our little....spazzams.
-LOLOL, JAMIE YOU CAN NEVER ERASE THAT VIDEO OKAY ?!-
& Chino Hills High was also VERYVERY good. i like their show alot. The cymbal solos are very cool.
RCC & PULSE also performed. RCC's show wasn't that interesting to me. it was whatever, but PULSE's is AMAZING. i saw vanessa x) go vanessa! but, yeah. i love the toms solo.
& Music City Mystique, i've never heard of this school. But it was really interesting, like a circus.
They had Cymbals thrown into the air everywhere, and they would land on the tip of a stick.
and then start spinning, y'know like those plates on sticks that start spinning? very very cool.
OH, and RHYTHM X. i think they are my new favorite. they are absoulutely phenomenal when it comes to visuals. They had like Cymbal players runnning ON TOP of the snare drums, (yes feet touch the snare drum head) and then they would like jump off and do an aerial. & like snare dummers were on tenors and playing. and yeah, very very very nice.
OH. last year, in Rhythm X, there was a BLIND tenor player. i think he's one of my heroes now. It's really amazing. hmm, now i just have to wait for the results. too lazy to blog about that. so yeaaah.
goodnight !

DRUMLINE CHAMPIONSHIPS.
today was championships, and it was a LONGLONGLONG day !
although i'm the negative one of the drumline, i actually think we had a great show. The arena was HUGE, and so intimidating, but i loved performing in it. but sadly, that was our LAST performance of our junior high year. looking back on it now, i'm amazed to see how much i've improved. how much the drumline has improved. I feel so accomplished, and i would like to thank mr.sun for it all. The day was pretty boring until ayala came. They are so freaking good, it's kinda scary. Their music is so pretty! and they are so talented. I can't wait till I'm in their drumline; that is if i make their drumline. Their standards are so high, i have to try extra hard to make it in. I will work my ass off for a spot in their drumline. Unfourtunately, both Ayala and we, got second place. Oh well though. In my eyes, we both got first place, and we did great.
I truly am never going to forget this experience. It's a memory i will never erase. It's sad that it's all over. Why did it have to end ? Now, i just have to wait till MAY, to see if i make ayala.
OH, and theres still showcases at CHHS, and AYALA. so those should be fun.

R.I.P DRUMLINE.
so. tomorrow is our LAST drumline competition of the 09-10 season !
i'm excited, yet sad all at the same time. i dont' want it to end. but, i want to win!
it's championships, and i'm worried that we'll get last or something. we'll just have to go all out!
but...yeah junior high drumline is over. it's depressing to hear those words, but it's reality. i' truly am going to miss everybody. i have to make a note to myself that i'll visit all the time. i'll miss the scrubs, and just being with the WHOLE ensemble, together. rehearsing. it's a memory i'll never forget. the sad part is, i think today's rehearsal was...overall depressing. Everyone was depressed, and had personal problems, and they let it affect them in rehearsal. I hope tomorrow, everyone stays focused, and pushes all their problems to the side during the performance and just MAX it out ! even if we get last, if i know we had a great show, i'll be satisfied. would it be nice to have a gold medal? yes. but it doesn't matter as long as we all beilive we played well. after tomorrow, there is still ayala showcase, chinohillshigh showcase, our third rally, and banquet. These should be fun (: but they just wont be the same. The feeling that theirs competition out there, and your fighting for something, is gone. R.I.P 2009-2010 Drumline Season. "The Tree"
MAY 10-14; is ayala clinics. and i'm SO FUCKING SCARED.
i really REALLY really REALLY want to make ayala, and i dont know what i'll do if i dont.
i have to work real hard for it. since, ryan is a freaking prodigy and might make FRONT ENSEMBLE.
and then theres like one more spot left, and like 4 more people trying out. i really have to try. try HARD.
im scared. because, drumline is like a passion of mine, and i dont know what i' would do if i had to wait a whole nother school year till i can do it agian. i hope this quote is true, "Practice makes Perfect."
i'll have to practice my hardest, and hope the insturctors see what i can become.
