One Huge Breath and the Noise That Follows

Standing in crowded bleachers with over a hundred other people with metal touching my face half the time. Oh yeah, for around three hours. Now how exactly does that sound to you? Horrendous, terrifying, appalling, maybe gruesome? You're Wrong! Believe it or not, that exact thing has been the best time of my school year so far. How exactly? Well, those hundred people are some of the best friends I've ever had, that hunk of metal is basically most of my life, but it's still freezing cold. Cons: 1, Pros: 2 Pros win!

Now you're probably still wondering what on earth I could possibly be talking about, and that can be answered with two words. Two mostly typical words that when brought together has brought more joy into my life then almost anything. Pep band. Though I play in four other bands other than pep band, in this one I get to make more noise on more songs where I can get more creative with what exactly I'm playing. And by that i mean taking songs up octaves and playing about five times louder then what I thought was humanly possible. It's extremely fun.

With the description I've given this absolutely fantastic event so far, I would hope you would believe me that it is one of the most incredible things someone could ever possibly do. However, not everyone thinks this. In fact, some people find it dreadful. Standing out in the cold, doing something they don't even enjoy. Well I am in no way imaginable like one of those people. In fact I would say I'm the greatest conceivable inverse of those people. I am fairly certain that we are so different that an overextension of my contact with those people would cause the world to implode. It's that big of a deal. So in conclusion, pep band is so fantastically amazing that it could somehow cause the world to implode. It's kind of a big deal.
