update: so for practice today we marched and played around a neighborhood, people were coming out of their houses to take pictures and videos, and the marching actually felt pretty good. being a freshman, i screwed up quite a few times, but it was still really fun.
after practice, my squadmates and i went to graeter's ice cream and we did would you rather and stuff like that. stories were told and it was a good time. i fit right in with everybody and they're all total bros. i think i'm gonna like marching band
