Yesterday at CA Adventure

Our concert at California Adventure yesterday went quite well. We sounded okay and there was no major difference in how we usually play (except for the fact we did not perform Lollapalooza ). Although it was kind of hot in our concert attire, all went swell. As for the theme park portion of the day, we spent the time eating, rushing through the park, waiting, getting fast passes, riding, yelling, screaming, shaking, almost dying, getting lost, washing our hands, crying, hating the ride then end up going back on again, getting wet, getting wet another three more times, shaking because of the wetness, waiting some more, looking for friends, waving at band directors, laughing, standing, sitting, and whatever is to be done at theme parks. We went on a total of 14 rides, had a really unappetizing lunch, rode on the bus wet, and I had a major headache in conjuction with a really sore throat. We also got stuck on one of the rides and had to be escorted off it which was pretty scary considering how high up we were. All in all it was pretty fun, but I really couldn't handle going back until a few weeks or months have passed. The rides were too much (at least for me), but I'm glad I joined District Honor Band for the music. Today my throat really burns because of the screaming and yelling I did on California Screamin' as well as other rides (Tower of Terror). I woke up at like 11:30 and ended up practicing and listening to my pieces for solo and ensemble.

I hope you guys enjoy your weekend. May it be filled with happiness, laughter, and a load of sleep.
