IT'S DONE!!!

Juries are over.
WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They really weren't that bad.
My piece went really well. Etude pretty good, I was stopped three lines into it.
Scale...
eh....
they asked me to play A major. On the way up, I accidentally played A minor but didn't realize until I got to the top, then I fixed it on the way down. They asked me to play it again.
And then the comment on how much I practiced.
I was really scared at the start of this.
I put on the sheet that I'd only practiced about two hours a week. According to Dominique, it should have been somewhere around six (thanks for the warning...). All the upperclassmen who had not practiced enough their first year said they were pretty much raked over the coals for it.
So, as the guy started talking about it, I started freaking out.
Well...more like continued freaking out, I hadn't been calm for a while at that point...
Anyway, he says "So, you only practiced about two hours a week. Do you want to be in Wind Ensemble?"
To which I replied "hopefully someday."
Then he said "You have a really good foundation. I know you're a chem major, and you've got a lot on your plate with that, but if you triple the practice time, you'll definetly be in wind ensemble a lot sooner than you think."

....
Not what I was expecting to hear at all.
It was wonderful.
And I feel like skipping now 'cause it's all OVER!!!!!
*and* a HUGE thank you to Sarah for everything.....I know I've already thanked you three times, but you helped sooo much I would have been a good deal worse if it wasn't for you being there.
So, for the last time,
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *hugs*
Oh happy day....
