For those who don't know, a TOB is a Tournament of Bands, or a Marching Band competition. I originally hadn't planned on going to this on account of I wasn't supposed to be here for most of the day. Instead, I slept late and ended up having to go to the TOB since I missed the other thing.

Anyways, it was a lot of fun. It was the first performance for our school EVER. We're a new school, and we had just started our Marching Band. We didn't do too great, nor too bad. We came in last, but only lost by a very small fraction. We didn't expect to win, considering we're a brand new school, so we weren't sad. We were just glad that we had fun.

Really, I think that we just weren't ready for it this time. We had only gotten one out of four sets done by the time we had to go. We only had two trumpets, me being one of them, and we hadn't done very well at all. I was really nervous so I wasn't playing my part out too much, and the other one barely knew any of the songs. For a new school, I think we did quite well.

I have another TOB to go to next week, and hopefully that one will go better than this one. I really hope things improve over the season.

EDIT: I'm REALLY TIRED right now, so I'm off to sleep.

Cool, good for you! Well, at least you aren't all sorts of bummed out for losing, seeing as how you all might need improvement(It's only natural I don't know my way around these things known as...musical instruments...). And definitely good luck on your next TOB, aim for the sun and hope you miss(you don't want to be fully engulfed in flame do you?).
