No Faces Being Shown In Case Someone From My Team Finds This!! - Blog Posts

i do miss being in guard bc for the most part it was fun, and I met a lot of interesting people and went to places I've never been. but i hate that within my team there's such a stigma with not going into winterguard. color guard is fun and all but it is fucking EXHAUSTING. spending 4 weeks of my summer at school practicing in the hot sun. the injuries and pain, both physical and mental. the band director, who very often had no regard for the guard girls and boys having to go halfway across the field to reset for the 7th fucking time in a row. it was great to see the outcome at the end of the season (we won state) and it truly is amazing to be a part of but I just hate the shame for not wanting to do it all year. i want to have a life and take this winter season to rest before I'm back at it in April.
