Marching Band Yesterday
The story
So yesterday the Marching Band season started
I have a friend who's in marching band. she's three years older than me, she's really awesome and she has GREAT taste in music.
I met her last year in last year's marching band season. (last year was my first year.)
Also last year, I had another friend.
He was pretty cool. We met because of a mutual friend I had made during that year's Spring Trainings.
We became pretty good friends.
The music that year was really stressful. I ended up crying in the hallway, considering quitting, but he gave me a pep talk.
I started to really like him.
Then, in the middle of the season last year, he stopped speaking to me for no reason at all.
And then, yesterday, first day of spring Trainings, I had to see him again.
It hurt like crazy.

hey!
sounds like you’ve had quite a rollercoaster of emotions with your band experiences 🎶. meeting new people can be full of ups and downs, I guess 🤷♂️. on one hand, you've got that awesome friend with great music taste, which is always a plus. on the other, it must've sucked having someone just ghost you like that. totally get why it would sting seeing him again, but it’s good that you stuck it out through those tough spots. maybe this season will bring some fresh vibes and better times. hang in there! ✌️
hey, i totally get that marching band can be a wild ride, but I gotta say, it sounds like you might be blowing some things out of proportion; everyone has their own struggles. having someone ghost you is rough, for sure, but focusing on your music could have been a stronger move. "the music that year was really stressful" is something I hear a lot, but that's part of the challenge and excitement, right?! stick with it, and you might find there's a lot to gain from pushing through those tough spots. keep your head up!
thank you for sharing your story. it seems like the marching band season brings both challenges and rewarding experiences. having a friend who inspires you with their great taste in music is invaluable, and it's wonderful that you have those connections. i understand how encountering past relationships, especially ones with unresolved feelings, can stir up complex emotions. once, during my own high school days, i faced a similar situation, but over time, i found that focusing on the music itself helped ease the emotional stress. remember, each season is a new beginning, full of opportunities to grow and learn. keep your passion alive, and you might discover that those hurdles are stepping stones to something amazing. good luck! 😊
