i love band

friday went good. although i didnt do to hott.

after the potluck me, erin, jenny, jeremy, jason, megan, ari, stephanie, holly, josh, and cameron went to  kelly's house and hung out in the pool for 4 hours. it was so much fun. i love those kids. this year is gonna be better than ever.

love you kids

im tired and i have so much to do

today i really started having problems with some of the stuff im conducting. its totally frusterating. it has to be close to perfect by tomorrow at 6 oclock.

in other news jenny is back in band so thats mega exciting

ok i have freshmen presents to work on and i hate to work some with my score too

goodnight

im loving band

we only have 2 days left though wich is very very sad

its odd to see how my group of friends is changing and such

one thing is odd though. i know all of the drill. i can march just as much of the show as i can conduct.

i love being up in the truck and starting the set to set runs. its awesome. its also awesome to cue someone and hear them come in. its also funny to give a hold to a section and hear them cut off 2 counts early.

my band respects me and likes having me as one of the DMs. it means so much to me that they respect me. one guy felt bad about something he saud to me that i didnt take as a big deal. he came to me later and appologized for "disrespecting me." i was so taken aback that he did that. it made me feel good and think highly of him.

ok well its late i need to sleep so my muscles can finally relax

much love

no more phusebox??? ya right.

its amazing, band is. im so proud of us. the level of focus is so much higher. the music sounds amazing. we put our first 5 sets on in an hour.

as for myself. i got to conduct the opener yesterday. it was an amazing feeling. for the first time i wasnt conducting to a recording. i was conducting people that had the ability to watch me. i couldnt help but to smile like crazy through the entire thing. it was such a thrill.

went to summer music games yesterday. it was very cool.... until it started raining. so after an hour in the concord with thousands of hot, wet, sweaty kids they called the competition. while tring to leave. there was a kid sitting behind us that we ended up talking to for quite some time. sax player from some school in KY. so yeah we went to sonic after they called it and got home after 1.

well thats all the news i have for now

love you kids lots and lots

-milly

well its been a sweet time here on phusebox, but all good things must end.

this one ended with an overflowed toilet and erin leaving the computer up to phusebox.

mom came upstairs to help and was like what is this phusebox?

and now i must not post.

i love you sweet phusebox and will miss you greatly.

band was yesterday.

i was introduced as the DM and everyone clapped and yelled for me. it was awesome.

so the band sounded better than i thought it would considering all the ppl that were missing. why do people wait till band starts to be on vacation? its stupid.

so yes this year is gonna be awesome.

jenn and D slept over and it was fun. i got to hang out with my girls. we stayed up until it was light outside again .then got very little sleep.

i was glad to be at church on wed night. i love wed nights at clavary. i loved running sound board. i lovbe the worship too. its just so awesome even when you are messing with levels every now and then.

ive realized that i cant let God take a 2nd place to band. it may sound stupid to all of you, but i need to want to know God as badly as i want to win a competition. i need to want him more than a superior drum major award.

well i guess ill ttyl!!!!

me encanta tu

its so odd. i hate this feeling. it comes every time i leave dads. its hard to go becuase hes your dad and he wants you to stay with him and you want to stay with him,but then there are your friends and an entire different life in another town. the end of this summer has been great cause its been just me and dad and were so alike. its been so fun. im ready to get back to you guys though. i miss my friends SO much. i miss my youth group. i just kinda miss the boro.

-milly

getting out of bed at 7:00 to go to the lake is awesome. being back at the apartment and having waxed and cleaned the entire boat by 11:30 makes me feel very accomplihed.

tomorrow for the BIG freedom fest on base dad has to work the one of the first-aid tents so we have to be there at 12. the thing starts at 1 and fireworks are at 10. there is gonna be a 4 hour battle of the bands. then wideawake is playing on the main satge right before the fireworks that are at 10. i think its gonna be awesome.

have a great 4th everybody

much love
