It is now OFFICIALLY Drum Corp season! Im pumped, yet also VERY nervous. Having to travel, and rehearse, and practice everyday is alot, including at my age and the size that I am.

Occasionally I'll try to check every night on updates, i'll try to upload pictures or videos, and just fill you guys in on whats going on!


Wish me luck, love you all!

Tomorow, of all days, I have a hornline rehearsal from 11 AM till 4 PM...fun fun. I wasn't going to be doing anything anyways so this just gives me something to do lmfao.

Today I was told by my mom that the results for my EKG came and the doctor called her. Apparently half of my heart is enlarged, for some reason. He said it might be from Athletes Heart, since my blood pressure is AMAZING for my age, and that I do have a strong heart. But he said usually it appears on the other side of the heart instead of the enlarged side it is. So he said no hard labor or athletics until its checked...like i'll do that. Drum corp is rehearse every day dudes...So I have to talk to the instructors to see what they think...hopefully I dont have heart disease.

My girlfriends Grandfather passed away this morning, and shes now taking a trip up to PA to see him. Please keep her and her grandfather in your prayers.

To come home starving after 4 hours of playing, and find you family ate all the food, and someone snuck into your fucking stash of sugar cookies and eat them all, not fucking right.


Balloon wolf needs his sugar and fudz >:C family sucks

next wensday is my birthday...I have a 10 hour rehearsal for drum corp....meaning I cant see my friends, wont be receiving any gifts, and might be in more pain than I am.


Life of a performer sucks.

Birthday is next wensday, I need to figure out what im doing that night XDD day is basically going to be:

Get up around 7

Rehearse from 10 AM till Dark

Go back home to mah'z house


Anyone have any ideas of something to do?

I really wish I could've gone. I felt horrible, let alone friday evening I suffered a relatively minor panic attack.

Drum corp kicked my ass...I cant walk, cant stand, arms ache from the weight, and just feel exhuasted. I mean, I had somewhat fun, but it made me teary upset to know all my friends were off together having fun.

First show in two weeks, we have one more movement to learn before we finish the show and start officially detailing. GOD FUCKING DAMN (excuse my language) is that drum solo amazing. Like, to think you have to have so much stamina to do the first movement, be able to calm yourself for the ballad, then this comes. IM FUCKING RUNNING THE WHOLE TIME XDD But I cant wait to learn the visuals...one visual we put down are horns and totally go Cavaliers-Frameworks dance shit. It shall be epic.


But yeah, im REALLY sad...theres no real other definition, that I no longer get to see my friends anymore...no more free weekends, and Califur just had to throw a I HATE YOU at my face this year.

At least I didnt get Con-Crud...

Excuse my language, hate life right now, time to eat dinner, and shaving my head this week.

I will NOT be attending this year. Sadly, Drum Corp, my one passion, has got in the way of one of my other lifestyles. I wish you guys the best and hope those friends of mine in the dealers den make some sales! Boo Economy!

I'm in a way glad that im not going this year. Some people who I just CANNOT STAND are going, and if I ran into them, I'd probably end up telling 'em off anyway. They hurt my friends emotionally, so *shrugs*

I'll be getting a t-shirt from the con lol, Have fun guys!

Up was a pretty good movie. Im not just saying this because of the whole balloon wolf and balloon-movie thing XD It had really funny parts in it, especially Dug the talking dog. But it also was really sad. Held myself back from crying XDD especially in the beginning and end.


Have a performance today at some crappy carnival, gonna play some Jazz. I need to go get a new brass mouthpiece though, so I can use my horn this summer XDD

Got to go out this morning to hang out with my good friend Starfinder =) FINALLY got to meet her wonderful pooch bella, Ms. Nippy hehe. Had lots of fun with them, and her close friend. But had a scary time on the way over.

Heading over on the 101 freeway, some car tried to come over to our lane, but while we were in the lane and position it wanted! Me and my bro honked the horn several times...he just kept coming. We ended up wrecking violently into the center divide of the freeway, swerving from the hit and skidding. Both cars pulled over, violent words were exchanged, and we called sis on insurance info. We're alright, and got to and fro safely, but my anxiety issues knocked me to where I pretty much blackout through some of the incident I was in shock...im still shaken.

I have to go to the insurance company as a witness, since I blacked out and had a small attack from the incident...blarghz.


Im tired, need to go pick up a new brass mouthpiece, and go see Up....A balloon wolf needs his serving of balloons!

and driving through hollywood, I ran into the jonas brothers as they were at the premier of The Lost World With Will Ferral....marf :>

Went to my school's music department banquet. Food was alright, didnt eat the desert due to too much chocolate...ech. Anyways, award ceremony came, I recieved the award for Most Outstanding Junior Musician, and the positions Euphonium Section Leader and *drumrolls* Brass Captain! 8D


Im tired, and must chat with people...call me if you have my number!

Yesh, a rare fact, but im actually feeling in a good mood! I dont have anything bad or hard coming up this weekend until next week, first June camp and the start of drum corp season. But, 3 weeks untill my birthday! This balloon wolf will be happily (or sadly) turning 17!


Now, time to make oatmeal and stretch for the day :3

I love the fact my girl has everything better than I do. She live's in Texas (country pwns), shes an amazing artist, has a mother who ENJOYS her working out, and has a husky and 2 boxers.


I love my floppy ear'd texan <33 *ruffles*

Virus got my one personal laptop, so now i'm forced to use my family laptop to get work done and emails checked...thanks to the jerkoff you gave me the virus <3


Oh, got a superior for our groups performance today, 10 straight years of superiors...woot.

Mothers day was fun! =D Aside from spending the morning typing my report on voice acting an an interview, It was a pretty chill day. Made 3 sketchs for my Mom, Grandma, and sister (whos a mother btw lol).

After we all got together we went shopping in the outdoor malls. I got new converse the day before there so I just sat with grandma and talked. But then we went to one of our favorite resteraunts, Buca De Pepo! If you authentic italian food served family style, GO THUR.


Im still full lol. Next few weeks I have drum corp camps every weekend (INCLUDING FUCKING CALIFUR AUGH) So ill be pretty busy. I also found out my birthday is on a drum corp rehearsal...joy.

I'm starting to make pun icons based on ads and such, and right now im offering MSN and Livejournal icons themed after the "Got Milk?" commercials. Would anyone be interested in recieving one? Im no longer excepting free icons, but i'm still open to trading for them! Comment if interested!

Comment here if you want one! <3

School almost over, drum corp season coming up soon, birthday coming in a month (its on a freaking drum corp rehearsal...*cries*), banquet coming soon (Yay for leadership tryouts!) and drum corp is playing in the movies next week! 8D Im excited.

Yea, so I have a free weekend for once...anyone local wanna hang out?

Currently on my list of trades is one badge I need to finish, but I need to pick up red glitter and laminate it and im pretty much done. Would anyone like to do a sketch trade? I want art of me and my girl's character together, anyone interested in trading for such? D=

Im learning piece by piece, and the hard way, I wont be able to go to Califur, and see my closest, family like friends, before I leave the state until august....I wanna cry my ass off right now...

Wow, what a tough, long weekend! I was with my drum corp this weekend learning music, drill, and following the best part of it, brotherhood.

Man do I love being an athletic musician, the only part that suck is waking up at 7, working hard with the only serious free time is when your honestly asleep! And plus, the sunburn, rashes, bug bites, and aching muscles get at you like me and a popped balloon, no fun!


Right before practice ended we did a run through, but during this, a colorguard member who had no idea what she was doing, colided with me from behind, and I ended up slitting my lip...YEOWCH! I was bleeding into my horn, and dripping out. After the run through the corp medics came and checked it out. My teeth are fine as we know of, but I have a deep cut thats swollen. To get a mental image, it looks as though someone slit open a lip through a large cold sore...all I can say is I hope it heals before prom this weekend and fuck.

Thats all for now, time to right essays and check all the emails that have been piling up, night!
