18. "Okay so Marching Band is over. And as a freshman I must say I loved it! I'm definetly doing it next year and hopefully all throughout high school. I have a lot of good memories in marching band but my favorite one was of the last Thursday marching rehearsal. It was a cold day and it was dark and depressing considering that now we knew that the seniors were leaving. So imagine our surprise when instead of freezing cold water we got hot chocolate! It was some of the best hot chocolate I've ever had and I thank you loading crew so much for bring all of our equipment down and for giving us water ever single day!"
