Don't Worry. I'm Not Dead.

Hey, sorry I haven't blogged in a while. To tell you the truth, I sorta forgot I had this blog. Even though I have it bookmarked in my bookmarks bar at the top of my browser(I use Google Chrome just in case you're wondering). Anyway, just to blab about what's going on in my life, I joined the Penn Marching Kingsmen. I went to the 2 intro. days which were the first 2 days of summer. I had a lot of fun, but now I know I'm going to have to work out. It's not easy holding up an 8 pound Baritone out in front of you for 7 minutes straight(That is the approximate length of the show). I really don't know why I didn't chose to march Trombone, probably because I'm not coordinated enough to march it. Plus the ratio of Trombone to Baritones in the marching band is almost 2:1. Yes, you can have to many Trombones. And we do. Don't disagree Trombone players. You know we do. O.K., onto a totally different topic, grammar. One of my biggest pet peeves is bad grammar. I especially hate it when people use the word "broke" instead of "broken." Example: My arm is broken. NOT: My arm is broke. I saw a bench on a corner and it said "Water Softener Broke? Call 555-5555!" ON A BENCH! REALLY? Come on people. What do you think English class is for? People also mess up "there," "their," and "they're." Examples: There is a dog in the yard. It must be their dog. They're petting the dog. O.K. rant over. I'll try to remember to post more often now. Have a nice day!
