The first day was where we got our music, talked, and ate pizza.

I sat in the corner for the three hours we were there, refusing to look at or talk to the other people.

(I'm shy, if you couldn't tell)

Incredibly confusing (I'm a freshman)

It was the same day as out uniform fitting and so I had to come two hours earlier. I didn't even know the way to the freakin' band room >< I got directions from the guidence counselor and there were a few other of my freshmen buddies who were also confused. Some random person came over to us and had a huge smile
"New marchers! Uniform fitting is in the back room. I'll show you."
So we all followed quietly and got our uniforms. There was still like another hour and a half once I got mine and so I sat in the band room and talked to a few people I already knew. Then, one of the mellophone players (my section) came up to me and was like.
"You're Alina right?" (me wondering how he knew my name already "I'm Ian. I'm in your section. I hope you have a lot of fun. We're the coolest section... but I hope you don't mind *pause* perverted jokes, nonsense, randomness, and *pause* guys in short shorts"
Me... "><"
So he left and I was sooo confused. I later met the rest of my section, became adopted (an older marcher adopts a freshmen) and they taught me stuff. No too bad... I think.

Wow, you guys did uniform fittings on the FIRST DAY? I've never heard of a band doing that before (and I'm the uniform manager for our band this year xd ). Our band waits until the weekend before or after school starts (I still think it's so people can drop out if they're wimps). Marching band doesn't stay QUITE as confusing as the first day usually is. It'll get a little mellower as you get into the day to day marching band routine.


ANYways (now that I've gotten over my fascination with first day uniform fittings), my first day of marching band was... interesting. I knew someone in almost every section since most of my middle school band mates moved up to MB with me. My section leaders were INSANE. They gave the freshmen little rubbermaid containers decorated with fish and C/O '08 and they were full of goldfish crackers (get it? 'cause we were fish. ha ha ha? ... okay, not funny). We went over the basics (forward march, left and right flank, backwards march, to the rear...) and played some of our football game stand tunes. Then we all danced to the drumline out in the parking lot before going home. 3nodding
