My Band Story

So this is a post I've been trying to convince myself to not post, but I finally am. I don't like the entire flute section in the school band! They're all snotty, prissy brats. Today for example, the band teacher was saying that the flutes were going too fast. So the girl I sit next to, (we'll call her 0) turned her head around, and said just really snotty stuff. I'm not allowed to post it because apparently I could get in trouble for cyber bullying (I don't understand how but whatever) This is the kind of stuff they do- think they're better than everybody else and don't let anyone have a say in anything- it's their way or the highway. The whole flute section is like that- I've got at least one friend in trumpet, french horn, clarinet, alto saxophone, trombone, tenor saxophone, oboe, and percussion. That's only tuba, baritone, bass clarinet, bassoon and baritone saxophone. The next time 0 says something like that, I'm going to stand up to her! I'll probably be attacked by 2 or 3 other girls right away, and maybe a few later, but you know what? I really couldn't care less. I'm tired of having people walk all over me while they destroy everybody for no good reason. When they try to destroy me, like a wrecking ball, they're going to hit a wall of diamond- indestructible. I want to become a better flutist than 0. It's kind of stupid, and maybe I don't have my heart set in the right place. But I want to show her that you don't have to be like her to be the best at something. By "be like her" I mean the snotty, rude, mean, hateful, dramatic popular girls. How am I going to do this? I'm going to pay for my own private lessons, which I'm currently working on, and I'll just practice a whole bunch! We don't do first chair or anything, that's not till high school. I'm in band geek mode, so now I need to talk about all things band, sorry. 

My older sister played flute from grade school to high school, and then stopped :( Anyway, when I started 5th grade, I was in band, and I had a free flute, so we just decided to play that instead of spending a ton of money on an instrument! I'm not complaining, I love flute so much, I'm glad I stuck with that. Anyway, she also played piccolo in high school, and once I find that, I want to work on learning that, because I want to play that in high school too. It takes so much more air though, it's crazy. Better start learning now! I love band so much, it's probably my favorite part of the school day. If they tried to take away band, the should expect me to put up a fight- petitions, protests, attending school board meetings, everything. I'm not going to let my band get away- my future literally depends on it. I want to be a flutist. So that's my band post, there'll probably be more, but that's it for now! Love you!
