I have to go to bed super early tonight because I have to cover someone's shift at work at 7:30 am (GAHHH!) tomorrow. But something pretty exciting happened to me today!
My sophomore and junior years of high school, I was on the winter guard. If you haven't heard of that, it's the people during marching bands that spin flags. In the winter, we make it our own sport and compete against other winter guard teams. It was a blast and I miss it loads. Anyways, today when my sister and I went down to my school to do a few things, I saw some people spinning flags outside one of the buildings. When I asked them if they were in the marching band and that I had been on color guard before, they were really excited and one girl brought me in to talk to the director about joining (if I can fit in into my schedule, what with class and shows and auditions and work and everything). On the way in, the girl who was showing me the way glances at my This Machine Pwns N00bs shirt and asks "Is that a nerdfighter shirt?" I have never met another nerdfighter IRL in my entire life! I was so excited. Then, when we reached the band room, where the entire band was practicing, the girl calls to the director "We found a guard person on the street!" which made me laugh. And then one of the clarinet players said to the girl next to me (who had, apparently, recently died her hair) "Can we call you Tonks?"
I think I am going to like these people.
I've also been reading as much of Catching Fire as I could today. I've only got about 60 pages left, and Mockingjay should be here soon.
I've got to make my video and clean and get to bed, so goodnight, all!
Happy Mockingjay Day and happy birthday, John Green!
