A Bit About Guard...

Well, for those of you who may not know what Color Guard is, in the marching band season we do shows with the band to make halftime interesting. We toss and spin flags, rifles, and sabres while dancing around the band (which is really difficult). I've been training since I joined, 3 hour rehearsals 3 days a week, plus home football games, plus Saturday performances all through September. All while juggling school assignments. It's definitely not for people who can't multitask. You have to multitask while doing other multitasking things. Anyway, in the winter we get to perform without the band, which is really nice. We don't have to worry about hitting a band member while we dance around them. Also, we get to be indoors for the winter season, which means the wind can't screw up my tosses. Hope that helped, I know it's a pretty brief explanation but if you still don't understand leave me a comment. Have good day and stay safe. 🙂

My First Post EVER

Hello all! My name is Casey and I am brand new to blogging. I don't even know if people read blogs anymore, but here goes. We'll just start with a few things about me. I am a junior in high school and I actually do color guard at a different school than the one I take classes at. I started color guard in the summer of 2017 and all through September I have competitions. I have a very busy life thanks to guard, so my blogging will probably not be on a very well set schedule. I suppose something you should know is that I am a transgender male, FTM if you are familiar with the terms. If not, it means that I was born as a female but identify as a male.

I'm not sure how long this is supposed to be but a lot of these will probably be ramblings, so, fair warning. Obviously, my blog will be about my life in color guard, however I might post some other things depending on my mood. I'm really excited to see how this will go, it's kind of like when I started my YouTube channel, it's all very new and I get to explore all these different things. I think that this was a sufficient introduction so I'll leave this here. Have a good day and stay safe friends. 🙂
