Seven Sentence Sunday

Thank you @xthelastknownsurvivorx for the tag!!

This one is being resurrected BECAUSE it is marching band season and I am a simple gal. So my goal is to have this stay a long one shot and FINALLY get it fleshed out enough to post! So here's nine sentences! 🥁🎺

The thing is… The thing is Mr. Luna doesn’t know that Henry hates him right back, for no apparent reason.

He remembers the euphoria a few short months ago when he’d been selected as a drum major against all odds – as much of a surprise as when he’d been announced as section leader when he was a measly sophomore thanks to the upperclassmen’s tendencies to get into literal fistfights over who would get which solo. He’d beamed and received congratulations from a majority of the band, but after school, he’d overheard Henry Fox and Pez Okonjo (AKA the English delegation) in one of the practice rooms. Henry bemoaned the fact that this was ‘the worst possible outcome’ and ‘he’d have to look at Alex all the time’ and Pez had snorted and told him to get over himself before getting back to practicing.

Not to mention Henry's mysterious absence from last year’s mandatory leadership camp without consequence. That pissed a metric shit ton of people off, not just Alex.

“If that’s too difficult for you to muster, I’ll add to Ms. Bankston’s long list of responsibilities and have her be your own personal leadership mentor. To avoid any confusion, I’ll make it explicitly clear that it was due to your decision to not play nice.”

Alex’s eyes fly wide open and he squeaks, “Y’know, Henry’s great!"

Tagging @sherryvalli @orchidscript and @myheartalivewrites!

Music is a magical force; its melodies touch the deepest parts of our being. It sparks inspiration within us, encourages our minds to think beyond boundaries, and stirs our hearts with emotions that words alone cannot convey. Music is a teacher in itself, providing valuable life lessons through its harmonies, rhythms, and lyrics. It transforms lives, offering solace in times of sorrow, joy in moments of celebration, and a steady hand through the ups and downs of life's journey. In education, music becomes a symphony of knowledge and passion, echoing through the hallways of learning and reminding us of the beauty and power it holds.

DCI article on the partnership between the Columbus Saints Drum & Bugle Corps and Wilberforce University, an Ohio HBCU with a brand-new band program. Members of the Saints are able to skip the audition for the Wilberforce marching band and are automatically eligible for band scholarships. The Saints have a long history of helping students (sometimes, students who didn’t have a music program at their home schools) reach the next level- both for those with DCI ambitions and those looking to build skills for college band. I always appreciated that about the Saints organization, even from before I became a member.

Back in October, the Saints became (as far as we’re aware) the first DCI- and DCA-affiliated corps to perform at an HBCU homecoming when we participated in the Wilberforce homecoming parade. The WU band just spent a long weekend in New Orleans marching in Mardi Gras parades and battling other HBCU bands. I’m excited for this partnership to continually benefit both programs. The Wilberforce “Hounds of Sound” Marching Band will be a band to watch out for in the future!
