| We got bumped!!! From AAA to AA!!! and we came in second. not to bad for my first ever winterguard show...
sooo Premier was almost perfect. I nailed my solo. the 45 toss was amazing. I was scared I wasn't going to get it out...I don't really know why I freak myself out with little things like that. and the beginning flag work was good. for me. Not too sure about anyone else. Rifle...for the part that I did, it wasn't too shabby. But considering that I missed more than half of it; not too hot. but that was my only big blooper of the evening.
So. AA class. yeah. good. yeah. bad. definitiely. now we have absolutely no room to mess up. at all. zip. zilch. nada. nothing. The only part that excites me, really, is the fact that everything gets harder. I can't wait. But that's about the only good thing about getting bumped.
Okay. Why is it that people say they absolutely love doing something, but when it starts to fall apart, they wish they didn't do it, could quit, want to go to somewhere better, etc.? Because it's a theory of mine that if you really love something, you stay with it. No matter what. Through all the ups and downs. Why not instead of complaining about it, work your ass of. Get better. Prove to whoever that you should be on that team. Do something about it. Sitting on your butt and complaining gets you absolutely nowhere. That just really annoys me when people do that. And I guess while I'm on the subject of what annoys me, I'll add people being hypocritical. I know everyone, including myself, is/ has been a hypocrite. But does it make sense for a person to set a rule and not follow it? What gives you the belief that just because you said something, it's automatically the law? Why do the rest of the people who heard the rule, law, statement, ect. have to follow it to the nines, but you don't? I don't know. But I do know that it's bullcrap.
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on my life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company ... a church ... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past ... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the string we have, and that is our attitude ... I am convinced that life is ten percent what happens to me and ninety percent how I react to it. And so it is with you ... we are in charge of our attitudes
Get it C-side's A-side! Love the B-side!!!!
