Day 19:  Something you miss

A few weekends ago, I went back to my college to watch the Symphonic Band and Wind Symphony perfom their final concert of the year. It was such a breath of fresh air to see the performance and go back to where my college years started. I grew up with music with being in choir at church and piano since I was 5. I can't remember a time when there wasn't music playing. Thinking back to being in college, majority of my memories and friends revolve around being in the band. But what I miss the most is the sense of family. Every day I would go into the music building and no matter what time it was, there was somebody always there. You could always hear someone practicing or choir kids harmonizing in the halls. We would sit in the lounge area for hours talking and just hanging out. I think one of my favorite memories was anytime someone threw a party full of band kids, no matter what or where, we would ALWAYS end up talking about marching band or concert band. The music never left us!
