As much as I don't want summer to end, I'm actually really, really excited about this year. I'm taking my driving test in a couple weeks, so I'll have my license. I'll be an upperclassman. I'm not going to say I'll get into All-State band because that would definitely jinx it. I'll have to start thinking seriously about college, which is both exciting and scary. Then, there's band. Much of this blog will probably be about band. This year it's going to be a lot different. Because... some stuff happened last year, and our band director basically got fired. So we have a new director this year. The stuff that happened last year? Sucked. But there's nothing we could do about it, and I'm trying to see it as an opportunity for new, good stuff to happen. I'm really optimistic that this is going to be a great year for us.

I guess I'm going to bed now...
