Is it just Shasta and red stuff?

The guard trip to Vegas: a summary
Friday we had a rehearsal and spent the night at Jennifer Stewarts house, it had to be the worst sleep over ever. Her creepy stepbrother came home drunk and was taking pictures of us sleeping and threw things at us. Then he showed them a movie of a beheading, I couldn't watch, I had to leave, just the thought was too disturbing. The next day we woke up really early and went to Marcos to get on the bus, we drove out to where we were picking up Oasis and had to wait because a lot of them were late. We stopped in Kingman for breakfast at McDonald's. When we finally got to Vegas we had to get ready to perform because we were behind schedule or something. We performed and all was good (except Jenessa dropped her sabre during her solo, she was the only person who dropped). Our scores were pretty low, but I think Alice said we beat all the Tucson guards. We stayed and watched all the higher up guards, I got to sit by this really cool gay guy. We all bought matching hats and ate Albertsons chicken for dinner. We didn't leave until like 10:00. The bus driver got lost and we didn't even get to see the Strip or anything. The hotel was "ok", I've seen much worse. We had a really crappy breakfast, then went back to the show site to watch finals (needless to say we didn't make finals). It was packed! They ran out of seating! It was crazy! We watched all the guards (didn't stay for awards) and left. We stopped at McDonald's for dinner (are we seeing a pattern here?) and watched the video of our show on the way home. Everyone thought we did really well (except the judges I guess). We got home around 12:30. I found a bag of apples on the bus when we cleaned it up. It was pretty funny. But my mom made me go to school on Monday even though I only got like 4 hours of sleep! I guess the gang didn't do to well down in Blythe either, but my sister did mention Chris asked where I was (good sign?). Otherwise this weekend was definitely a loserfest.
Viva Las Vegas!
