All State Band

I made it :D 9th chair which isn't that bad but I'm kind of mad because I know I could have done sooooo much better.....for those music people--my scales were ok, but my Eb scale tongued was pretty crappy (by the way, they spelled "tongued" wrong on the sheet on the stand). and my G-scale wasn't that bad but I think they took off half a point because I played it 3 octaves instead of 2, which they aren't supposed to do, but whatever....my solo was ok, I was semi-sick earlier this week so I had a cough attack during the 32-notes part. My sight-reading was ok too, considering it was in 6/8 time and there were weird sixteenth note rhythms in it :\

anyway, that is the 1 minutes summary of my audition, if you could understand it :D

but yeah. yesterday, right after my audition, I went to taekwondo for the mandatory 5 hour class to test for my 3rd degree black belt, and it was boring as **** (fill in any 4 letter word you would like there). we went over the basics for 5 hours--it wouldn't have been as bad if I hadn't done the exact same thing at the 5 hour classes before testing for 1st degree and again at 2nd degree...but yeah, I felt special because I got to miss one hour of it because of auditions :D
