Tours and a general update

So my weekend totally sucks. My tours finally went through so now I am in the process of trying to work them off. For those of you don't know a tour is marching back and forth on the "tour strip" for an hour. I got six tours which means I have to walk back and forth with my rifle for 6 hours. I did 4 of them today and I have to do 2 more in the morning. The tours themselves aren't bad at all it's just that they start at 0730 and on the weekends :-\.

Last night we went to the Norwich hockey game against Williams College and we totally kicked their ass. After the first 4 goals they pulled their goalie and then we scored 3 more goals on their backup goalie. We ended up putting out third string goalie in, who is a freshmen in the Corps and we still got the shutout with a final score of 7-0. Tomorrow is the game against Middlebury which is being broadcast on ESPNU and we are going to that game too. Me and Ben are going down like an hour early to get good seats. I mean we already have tickets for the student section but that shit gets crazy when people start vyying for seats. Usually Middlebury is a really good team but this year they aren't doing too well so now instead of barely beating them we'll fucking crush them. After the game we'll probably end up at the Rustic for the celebration.

School has been going ok so far. Precalc is definitely kicking my ass and I need to go see someone who can help me catch up and stay there. The last thing I need to do at this point is to fail another class and be even further back from graduating. So hopefully I can turn that around.

I have drill this upcoming weekend. I have to teach a class on.....something....I don't remember exactly what but I think it's something to do with head wounds maybe.

Next weekend after that I have Drum Corps. I always look forward to camps. It's one of my few chances where I get to play with a bunch of great people, especially us contras :-P. I think I finally got that weird ass rhythm in Spain down. Now I just need to work on getting the fingerings correct lol. Hopefully for this ride I won't have to go through a fucking snowstorm and go 25 MPH on a major highway.


Well I'm sure there's more that I could put here but I need to go to bed because I need to get up in the morning.
