We won!!! We won our football game! We have a new football coach and he's doing a great job teaching the players. Froshsoph is 1/1,jv is 2/0, and varsity is 1/1! I'm happy. We play more songs when the team wins and I like pep tunes. I don't know how the half time show went because I spent most of it explaining to my mom and two of my friends why I wasn't on the field. Why you ask? Simple, MY COACH SUCKS!! He taught us the work on Monday and Wednesday and told us he would tell us if we were ready to perform on Thursday. He didn't show up on Thursday. So I thought that meant we all got to perform and Jen told me he rarely ever takes people out. WRONG!!!! He shows up during the first quarter and takes us away to practice with our new flags. Ten minutes before the half time show, he tells us that three of us aren't ready yet and we can't go out. Jessica Rabbit and I both start crying and he acts surprised to see this reaction. He explained it was for the 'good of the team.' He eventually gave us the choice to perform or not and Rabbit choose to go on. Another Jessica and I didn't go because I knew I couldn't stop crying. (I don't know about anyone else but I don't like being told I'm not good enough.)My mom was pissed. And I mean very very mad. She went and complained to the band director and he said he was going to have a conversation with the coach. Rabbit's mom also went in and talked to him. Apart of me wants the conversation to involve a pink slip but more of me doesn't. The coach only shows up to practice forty percent of the time but he can still teach us stuff we need to know and a sucky couch is better than none. He a good coach, I just don't like how he teaches. It ruined most of my night mainly because I had family there just to see me. I told the little kids I wasn't feeling well because I couldn't bring myself to tell them I wasn't good enough. Support from my friends and the pep tunes gave me back my confidence and brought my spirit back up.
