We Be Rollin.... ;)

Ok. SO.

Last night was out first official

COLORGUARD SLUMBER PARTY!!!!


Yes, yes. It was quite wonderful in every way. A band geek's dream come true- a whole night in the bandroom just chillin with your fellow bandmates.

...If we had STAYED there the whole night, that is.

Around four in the morning we found a random 24 pack of Angel Soft toilet paper sitting innocently in the percussion room. And of course once we had found it, we felt obligated to use it somehow.

This is how we saw it.

1. We had twenty four rolls of toilet paper.
2. We had cars with full tanks of gas.

3. We all happen to know EXACTLY where our band director, Mr.V, lives.

This is not hard to figure out.

After about thirty minutes of hard-core begging and pleading on our part, our colorguard sponsor finally gave in. At four am, we were officially on our way to roll Mr.V. Best night ever? I think so.

We got to his house and climbed out of the cars. We inspected his perfectly groomed lawn and his lovely tree. We looked at each other and decided it was too disgustingly perfect. This place NEEDED to be rolled. Ten minutes later, the place was absolutely trashed. And when I say trashed, I mean TRASHED. We did our job well.

Of course by then, we were all way too pumped up to go back to the bandroom. The logical solution? An impromptu trip to Wal-Mart, of course.

Picture this-
You're a tired Wal-Mart greeter. It's almost five in the morning and there's no one in the store. You sit by the automatic doors, eyelids drooping as you almost slip into slumber... and then....

Sixteen highschool girls and a dazed looking woman who looks like she's supposed to be in charge barge in, making the biggest racket you've ever heard in your life.

Within five minutes, I'm sure every tired worker in that store wanted to kill us.

Anyway, we decided we might as well do something productive whilst we were there. So we wasted almost a hundred dollars of our colorguard money on T-Shirts and fabric paint. Once we got back to the bandroom, we decided together that we were going to make shirts to wear on the first day of bandcamp next week, proclaiming our success in rolling our poor band director. (I almost feel sorry for him. He puts up with so much.) Now we all have lovely matching shirts that say

"WE BE ROLLIN"


We are extremely proud of ourselves, to say the least.

Anyway, I had my first senior meeting today (Gosh, I'm a senior...I'm getting old, people!) And we planned out some of the stuff we're gonna do for senior prank week. During bandcamp, the seniors rule. And we prank. It's what we do. :)

Lets just say, Next week is going to be VERY interesting.
