Last week I tried out for clarinet section leader in Marching Band. I thought I had a pretty good chance. I mean, pretty much everybody was sure I was going to get it because the other two people trying out were not that great. Well, suprise. Today the section leader lists went up and I wasn't on it.
I'm bummed out.
But whatever. I mean, the new section leader has the responsibility now, but who cares? I'm still pretty good. And I know things they don't, so the fact that I'm not section leader doesn't change anything. I guess I really didn't have a fantastic chance because I'm a freshman and both of the others are juniors. But still.
I'm thinking of getting revenge, but not in a normal way. For a little while I thought about switching out to drumline (I've always wanted to play drums anyway, so why not?) but I figure, I'll be flipping awesome instead. Like, if anybody walked by, they could see how great I am at what I do, and then it really doesn't matter that I don't have the title, because I'm still the best. So I'm still the coolest, everyone knows it, and I don't have all the responsibility. Sweet.
Eh. It'll still be lame. But I guess I just have to go with what I've got.

In my experience, when you go for something that you think is going to be a breeze, only to miss out, it's usually for a good reason. I bet something else comes up now that wouldn't have been possible if you'd got that section leader gig. ;-)
