Absolutely Nothing Ever

Phase 10 is fun, but it leaves one wondering, "does Ross have a brain?" (that's Alecia's lovely quote). I'm sure Ross has a brain... somewhere. (I'm just joking around, Ross)...

Saturday night, Ross, Alecia, and I went to Saginaw and watched The Wedding Date. Alecia and I liked it and we're pretty sure Ross did too. On Sunday, Alecia, Ross, Levi, and I went out for Chinese after church. It was as good as usual.

I went to the band festival on Friday and Saturday and watched the senior and junior bands. Surprisingly, it was more sad watching the junior band play than the senior band. I guess it showed me how old I am. I remember being in jr. high and being in the junior band and it doesn't feel like it was that long ago, but it was 5-6 years ago. Six years is a long time. I was talking to Jake about the junior band's uniforms and how we got them new when I was in 7th grade. He was like, "wow, I didn't know they were that old," and I was like, "they're only 6... or 7... years old......" Watching all those little whipper-snappers run around and scream and wait excitedly for their rating was tough. I remember when I was one of those kids. The feelings that resulted from watching senior band weren't as poignant or intense... I've already had many encounters with the "leaving high school" feelings. I guess the junior band brought out a new perspective which elicited new thoughts and emotions.

My printer needs new ink or something. The colors are messed up.

I spent today doing nothing and mostly enjoying it. Maybe tomorrow I'll do more of nothing... or maybe I'll do something. I can't wait until this semester is over.
