Guess what tonight is? If you guessed marching band practice, you're only PARTIALLY correct. No, this is far more monumental an occasion than a mere practice...this is the last evening practice of the school year! HELL TO THE YES.
Ah, well, while it's been fun (and I mean that in the loosest of definitions), I rejoice at the thought of no longer having to march with a bass drum hooked to my shoulders in a ridiculous costume that's always too warm, no matter how cold it is outside. Honestly.
For the past few weeks, I've been a member of the Youth Symphony Orchestra of DuPage, which is excellent because I need an outlet for my oboe in the form of an ensemble. The first three days of every week, though, I have all of my oboe-related activities: orchestra rehearsal on Monday night, sectionals in band on Tuesday, and oboe lesson after school on Wednesday.
So, despite marching season, I've been coping. I simultaneously dread and eagerly await tonight's practice. Weird, huh?
