Assignment 24- Sam Ederington

For me, this school year is has been broken up into three parts. Firstly, was the part during marching band, where time disappeared too fast for me to keep up. Since I was the clarinet section leader, I learned several things about leadership, an communication. I also learned a lot about time management, keeping track of multiple homework assignments alongside my marching work and how the section was doing.
After marching band ended, came the normal school period. I suddenly found myself with hours of extra time, and so I took a chance and joined the school's League of Legends team, hoping I wouldn't spend the season on the bench. Instead, the risk payed off, and I was a starter. During this time, I also made sure to help maintain good grades, and spent more time on schoolwork.
Suddenly, the Corona virus hit and we were doing NTI work. This taught me a lot about flexibility, self-motivation, and that having my hair grow out sucks. However, I've had many successes, in quickly establishing a daily routine, to organizing and creating a group recording of Pomp and Circumstance for the graduating clarinet seniors (link below).
I really hope that next year is much more normal, and I can do marching band as per usual. Over the summer, I'm doing a virtual writing camp and planning on trying a few online courses. I'm also going to do a lot of clarinet playing, and figuring out assorted plans for marching band if worst comes to worst.
