anyway, yesterday we went up to susquehanna university, a school i'm not too thrilled about. i wasn't really impressed with the school itself, but i have a lot of friends that go there and i hear it has a good music school.
so i got there and the gave me my schedule. 11:10 piano proficiency (which was basically me sight reading and playing a fakebook version of Shennandoah xDDD oh the irony), 1:20 musicianship and 1:30 actual audition. wait. look again. i had 10 minutes inbetween sight-singing and my actual audition. yes. that was what i guess made me do my performance the way it went.
so i met up with my friend and we went to the sight-singing and audition together (probably not the greatest idea on my part). i warmed up and went to go the sight singing which was fairly high for my range. well, sorry i can't hit a C within the staff.
the audition itself. gosh, it was my worst audition yet. my reeds dried out and my Bb felt like it was making it's own noise. then my bass reed dried out and i couldn't get a G# (on the staff) out. man, it was terrrible. i felt so bad. i couldn't do a 3 octave F scale, but i could do much more on bass than anything.
i wanted to cry. it was so bad. but i didn't, surprisingly. but what a surprise i got when i got home...
I GOT ACCEPTED TO ITHACA COLLEGE.
mom freaked out. we were going to party, but now we're just watching TV.
"you want it? you got it!"
