The Back Row is Cursed.

So. Today is the day before I leave for Spring Break. But before I get into that, a quick recap of the week:

I had to perform in two concerts this week, on Tuesday and Wednesday night. On Tuesday, we had the Concert Band concert, and Wednesday night was the Trombone Choir.
My dad got videos, perhaps I will post those later. I'll at least link to them, if they make it online. Both concerts went pretty well! And my family was in town to watch them and to buy me delicious food, so it's been a good week.

And speaking of good weeks, this week has gone by ridiculously fast. As the week before Spring Break, you'd expect it to just draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag, you know? But nope nope nope, it's been flying by. That's a good thing because I want it to be two weeks from now, but it's also a bad thing because I have SO MUCH TO DO.

So I get to do everything today. I have my Anthropology midterm today, I need to do laundry and pack for my trip, I mailed off some stuff, I have to finish my Theory homework (eh), I have to go to the library and check out a copy of my Jury piece, copy it, practice it, I have to go to a concert tonight, and I'm positive I'm forgetting something else, but oh well. This paragraph is still filled with enough commas to get my point across! My point being that today is busier than it has any right to be. >:(


So, my trip. For Spring Break, the Trombone Choir is going to be going up to the Eastern Trombone Workshop to perform and watch other people perform and such. On the way up and the way home, we're going to be playing at various schools and churches.

So, that's the schedule for my trip. I won't be blagging at all that week because I won't be bringing my laptop. (No internet for 10 days? Noooooooooooooooo)
Gonna be playing a lot of DS, listening to a lot of music. Road Trips, woo.

But yeah, that's all for now. I'll tell you how things went when I get back on Monday. ;D
(Maybe Tuesday if I'm tired)


(Our performance will be at 3:30 EST on Saturday, March 20th, and will be broadcast live. For a complete schedule of the Eastern Trombone Workshop and a link to the live performance, go here. If you look, you should be able to find it pretty easily. Hope you watch!) ;D


Text me while I'm gone, since I won't have internet!
