No matter what the experiment's result, there will always be someone eager to:(a) misinterpret it(b) fake it, or (c) believe it supports his own pet theory.

Basically, I do SciO (rather casually) and marching band (you can expand the other band things into 500 other things like some people did >.<)

And I do math. And more math. And more math.

I do play 4 instruments.

Other than that, I tend to slack. But that means I have a social life :P I spend huge amounts of time hanging out, throwing together soccer/ultimate games at the huge park I live next to, etc.

Marching Band
I take Saxophone lessons
I take Flute lessons
I give clarinet, flute, and saxophone lessons
Pit band (Alto sax, clarinet, and flute)
Pep band *whatever instrument they need me on)
Symphonic Band (Alto sax)
Concert Band (Oboe)
Downgrade? Now I feel like such a lazy bum :lol:
Until you realize that those all pretty much imply each other, and are pretty much just "band". :P

Although I am curious, how are you in the musical and in the pit both?

You do chess too? What board were you this past year? Or have you not done the team?

I had a lot of conflicts with other stuff this year so I was almost never at matches. I'm hoping to change that when I can drive next year.. >.< but when I was I was around 1-3 on the JV team, you? :)
