Winter Guard - Tumblr Posts

i desperately miss color guard. i miss the feeling of being on the football fields and the crowds. i miss the feeling of nailing a new toss and finally committing to memory a new routine. i miss the bus rides and the traveling.

i practice with my equipment and learn routines just to perform them to a captive audience of cats and that’s as far as it goes. i mean, i still love practicing but i wish i could do more with what i’ve taught myself since leaving high school.

i wish so badly that there was an independent guard close enough to me that i could join.

PLEAAASEEEEEE

the way i wish winter guard was more widespread so it could be an olympic sport—

So, I just wanted to get this off my chest. I tried out for winterguard last year, and there were only 15 spots. The problem was, there were 17 people trying out. One girl backed out, so it was down to 16. Guess who was the lucky person to get cut? Yours truly! I understand she didn't want to cut anyone, but it was inevitable I guess. I'm thinking about trying again this year, does anyone have tips on how I can improve? My flag kept rolling up, so it might be somewhat with my wrists. I March clarinet, but I've been captivated by the guard and their flags, and winterguard gave me that opportunity because I don't wanna switch (BD prob wouldn't let me anyways).

WHY DID I DECIDE TO DO THINGS WITH MY LIFE?!?!?! GOD DAMMIT PAST ME 😭😭😭 why did i decide to do color guard and winter guard.. ;-;

I like to think I'm pretty okay at what I do??
