Well, since my mom was on her first 24 hour shift as an EMT she wasn't able to take our first day of school pictures. So, that leaves it to my dad. Nothing against him or anyone, but I'd rather take my own picture than be awkwardly standing in front of our door or garage early in the morning. So, I took my own picture and thought I would share! It took me a couple of times to get a good enough picture so if my face looks a little odd, it's because I just wanted to be done with getting one good picture.

Even though it has only been 4 school days, I really think this year will go very well. I have a Football game this Friday, and I will be playing in the marching band for half-time. This will be my third year in the high school band, and I have set a goal as to make All-State Band. Last year I made District Band, and wasn't able to audition for All-State. Our band hasn't had a band member make All-State Band in years, so I also want to do it for my band director and also myself. I know with enough practice, dedication, and perfection I could make it, so wish me luck!
