Movie and Appetizers :)

I have had a ridiculously awesome past two days.

Friday after school, the jazz band met at Jeff's house to practice our music and it was a lot of fun. Pretty chill environment...and I got to lead a couple songs, which was great cause after we played them through at the end I could definitely tell they were getting better. I also got to eat pizza and chocolate lava bursts while I was there. :)

Then me and Kaitlin (sophomore tenor sax player) went back to my house, Leslie came and picked us up and then we all went to go see "The Vow" together. SUCH A GOOD MOVIE. Definitely not as good as "The Notebook" (a lot of people are comparing it to that) and it's not one I NEED to see again, but I really enjoyed it. Good balance of rumor and romance.

SPEAKING OF ROMANCE. Side-tangent time! I had the realization that I am not a very romantic person. I don't need or really even want those little "romantic gestures" or random presents or anything...like David and I did absolutely nothing for Valentine's Day and I was completely content with that. All that sickeningly sweet stuff is not for me. :P

BUT...I do enjoy romance movies. As long as they're not too over the top. Long story short..."The Vow" was excellent. :)

Then YESTERDAY, Indoor Percussion had its first competition and we were at Souderton, my old home! It was a lot of fun...especially walking in and knowing all the parents helping out. :) We had a really chill warm-up, tuned up our drums, and then performed.

Beginning was shaky (I blame the pit, haha), but then about 45 seconds in we really got into the groove and it was an overall good show. Probably the best we could have expected for a first competition.

We got home at 7:30...SO EARLY. So me, Red Shoes (real name Dave but most of us call him Red Shoes), Joelle, JWaz, Meaghan, and Andre all decided to go out to Applebee's. We got there around 8:30...and half-price apetizers start at 9:00. So the waiter came by like three times asking if we were ready and finally on his fourth round we were all like, "Ok we all know what we want now." It was pretty funny. :) And THEN...we lied and said it was JWaz's birthday and we got a free sundae, which we all shared. :)

It was so much fun...especially since I'm usually so busy I get no social time with my friends but I got to go out TWICE this weekend!
