My Summer to Now

        The last month of school I'm anticipating summer, just like every other student in the world. We don't focus as much, we're tired of school, and teachers are tired. But as soon as school is over, some of us get tired of summer. Then we end up wasting our summer doing nothing except getting fat sitting around all day. During the summer I chose to try to do the opposite or at least balance my time outside the house with my time inside. Throughout the summer I had 2 constant things I would do; Game with friends and band practice. Band practice was once or twice a week until late july. Then games this summer was probably the biggest waste of time of my life but I'll still play once in a while. The highlight of my summer where I was most active was my week at bandcamp. Our schedule was basics at 7, breakfast at 8, field at 9 lunch at 12, indoor practice at 12:40, freetime at 3:30, dinner at 5, field at 6, then movies 9-11. We did this for 5 days marching in 90 degree weather. By the end of band camp we all had a tan.The rest of August felt like it happened in 2 weeks. By the time I got back I was left with 3 weeks left of summer. In that limited time I spent time with family and friends and slept in everyday until school started. The week of school starting I had 2 problems, no new clothes or school supplies. I spent Sunday going to the mall and buying a new pair of shoes. The mall was so packed that we just decided to get new shirts and other clothes next week. At the last minute I went to Wal-Greens and got school supplies. I think Sophmore year will be a challenge compared to freshman year.
