I hated marching band my freshman year of high school.

So why did I stay in for three more years?

When I first joined marching band, I didn’t know anyone. I had a hard time making friends because of my shyness. Even worse, the staff and upperclassmen yelled at me when I couldn’t march in step. And then we didn't make state finals by one point.
