never again will i EVER do an all girls sport. ever.
High school dive team sucks. it's just gymnastics all over again. but really really cold. like seriously, just as time consuming, just as many arrogant bitchy girls signing crappy music at the top of there lungs, and the one nice girl, who also wants to quit.

my parents don't want me to give up so easily at something i've worked at all summer-back when it was laid back, aka no Nazi coaches, and co-ed, aka i could just ignore the bitchy girls cause i had somewhere else to turn.

so instead i skipped practice today to practice oboe in the band room. with a metronome (which the band director and assistant director say i need if i want t get better, along with all the really GOOD band kids, but my parents STILL refuse to let me have one *cough* yah i'm bitter, so sue me!) i actually felt like i'd gotten somewhere for the first time in a long time, and when i went home i felt like i had accomplished something, and i was actually better. it felt pretty nice. so how's THAT for not needing one? *cough* bitter. yah. not even going to talk about the need for a real tuner.

now assuming that you care enough to get down to this point, here's something most of you should actually follow, assuming you ARE in fact a valid member of deviantart, and not a band geek

a critique is NOT a freaking description of a piece of art! if i ever hear the words "formal critique" again i'll eat myself. seriously! how is that helpful at all? sure, maybe it'd be INTERESTING to see someone's interpretation of your art blah blah blah...but is it really helpful? is it going to make you BETTER? probably not. constructive criticism will. am i the only one that gets it here?

yah. i had to listen to big-headed art teacher talk circles around herself on this topic while my entire class (well except the ones who weren't paying attention) gave me strange looks and "leah just drop it!" but the thing is, i never got my question answered. what's the POINT of your so-called formal "critiques?" cause the bitch DOESN'T HAVE ONE.
