No way. Really? That is funny. See, I'm the only senior on my guard, so I get to spend two hours yelling at a bunch of underclassman snots. Who never listen except when I hit them... stare

... You know your last shows counts even when the next season starts up
... You pick up a branch or pole and begin spinning out of habit
... You don't mind changing on a school bus in front of the opposite sex
... When you walk the track for gym you keep your chin up and look at the box as if you'll be judged
... You enjoy mowing people with tape recorders down because you get marching band nostalgia

-When you've broken more than one umbrella due to spontanious spinning and tossing habits.
-You notice when people are in and out of step
-you count music without realizing it.
-after you graduated you continue to go "that would be a great song to preform to"
-you still carry your rifle around as a prop for cg classes in college.

    Actually, I'm in Wind Ensemble, Treble Airs, and Color Guard, so I've been reading and counting music for a looong time.

    You know you've been in Color Guard too long when you start spinning a tennis racket spontaneously. During a match.

This one probably applies to more than just me...but I'm like the poster girl for this:

....you've been hit in the head with a flag pole so many times that even your nonguard friends and people who don't really even know you know why you have a gigantic goose egg.

Here's one I came up with:

You know you've been in Guard too long when you tell all your non-gaurd friends jokes about being in Guard.

You know you're a guard addict when:

-For Christmas, you asked for the WGI Championship DVD
-You can't stand any other way then right foot third
-You have a private stash of your own equipment (stolen or bought xd )
-You can change into your unitform, do your hair, do your friends hair, eat a 12" sub, put on make-up, and get on the bus in under 5 minutes
-You combine your instructors names (example: Tracy+Royce=Troyce)
-There are more guard t-shirts in your drawer then you should have
-Never the less, you cry when you lose a shirt
-You love concession food
-When you write poetry or essays on guard or preforming
-When you put your show music on your myspace profile

I absolutly LOVE colorguard and will seriously miss it next year!! (Graduating this year so four years of guard is a lot to miss crying )

You know when you're in winterguard too long when you only remember the gyms you go to by parking or locker rooms. You also know when you're in drumcorps colorguard too long when you talk out loud in the shower asking what's for dinner... and then you remember that you are showering by yourself and not with 45 others.

-You can change into your unitform, do your hair, do your friends hair, eat a 12" sub, put on make-up, and get on the bus in under 5 minutes.

That one applies to me

-You can change in the boys bathroom with 30 other girls and still have time to do you hair and makeup and get on the bus before anyone else.
-You can smile on comand and its flawless.
-GUARD IS ALL YOU THINK ABOUT!
-You talk about guard all the time.
-You think you can design better unifourms and design cooler flags.
