Get ready for marching season

With the DCI Championships in three weeks, summer is almost over and marching season it's about to begin. A lot of you are not ready and are want it to be summer again but we can't, all we can do is prepare for it. These are some things to start doing to get ready for marching season madness

set an alarm

everyone knows about morning practice and how much it sucks to literally wake up and go to school to practice on the damp, groggy fields. To help you get prepared for those days, set an alarm on your clock or your phone so you can get the hang of waking up

work out your schedule

you need to definitely work on a fixed schedule so you can have time for homework and other things in your life like sleep.

say goodbye to non-band friends

they don't understand that you have to give your 110% to band so if that means random practices or most of your time devoted to a band show, then that's what it is

stock up on pain killers and things for soreness

it's gonna hurt so you might wanna start by buying some sooner

drink plenty of water 

water is life, you need it so start drinking it now so you can be up and ready for marching season

grab all the bug spray

especially for the mosquitoes because mosquitoes are getting bad out here and you do not want to be a zika virus carrier 

stretch

a good stretch could do wonders on your body and could really improve your lumbar and makes stronger than what you were 

catch all the sleep you can

with scheduling time, schedule in some sleep so you won't feel so tired every time practice starts

get ready to make up all of your class'

you will have to make up almost all of your classes work especially when Fridays are test days and football games "love to be scheduled on the same day"

have fun

that's all you can do, it's not that hard, just enjoy!!
