Okay sorry it took so long but here is my trip.When we got to OHHS at 5:30 A.M. Mr. Hawkins wasn't there he left the kids incharge and decided he would drive down to CMU by himself.Then we have to pick up uniforms.They gave me a overall thing that was to big and a jacket that was to small.Then I had to get shoes.The size 9 shoe fit just right but they didn't have another 9 so they gave me a 13!!!!!!It was so hard to walk.then i have tons of stuff to carry to the bus.And there is only one bus.Now there is about 65 OHHS members and about 16 SMS members and 10 chapporones.ONE BUS!!!!That was not a fun ride.I slept all the way there cuz of Motion Sickness.And it was early.When we got there we all met up with mr. Hawkins.He didn't have enough snare drums for everybody so me and these two other people {one guy and one girl the guy was cute!!!} had to sit out of practice.Well after practice mr. hawkins says the has snare drums on the way.So then we go to lunch.We had Chinnese so i tell him i don't like chinnese and he says "don't worry they have Mongolian" yeah like thats any better.Then later some kid form our band {Trevor} comes in with Wendy's.Mr. Hawkins never told me that we could eat anywhere but apparently other people were told they could go all around town.So when my friends, Chealse,Allie,and Sahra were done we went to this halloween store we got kicked out by the OHHS people cuz we weren't 16 and you had to be 16 to go in the store.A few of those people weren't 16 either.So we went to Save Alot and i picked up some Resse Bites.After lunch we walked back to the stadium we watched the first half of the game{CMU was leading} and then when the first half ended we got to go play on the field.That went pretty well except the snare drum i had to carry was extremely HEAVEY.Then Mr. hawkins made us leave before the game was finished {the game was tied}.The bus driver put the game on the radio.I fell asleep.So i didn't get to her who one but my friends told me on Monday that EMU won so that sucks but i can't control the game.Well it was fun.it had its down points but everything does.

I thought you weren't going until October 5th. Or are you forecasting into the future.
October 5th is the Midland Parade. I hope you get shoes that fits next time for marching.
You are one heck of a trooper kid. You took what they gave you without complaint and carried on. A true Junion Amazon Van Houten.
p.s. I watched the start of the new Endurance, I was glad that Brooke didn't make it. At least that broke up the threesome
Well I didn't eat anything at the restaraunt I didn't want to pay 8 bucks to eat frnench fires.
Grandma, I didn't know Endurance was back. What time is it on?
A note on the shoes, they did not give her a pair of size 13 shoes. She had one size 9 and one size 13. Carrying a snare drum, definately an Amazon-In-Training.
you know...some snare drums are not that heavy. Mike has one that is like so light. I was surprised because back when I was in band (for like the whole 3 days) i remembering picking them up. But then again i was 13. Good job mego!
Endurance? WHen did that start and why weren't Meg and I notified?
Ask Mike if his snare durm is like a concert snare or a Marching snare cuz at school we had concert snares wich were totaly lighter than the marching snare that i had during the game. Well I guess i should be happy i didn't have the base drum. :}
