So, as mentioned in previous chapters, today I had region band auditions. I was extremely nervous, to the point where when I played the mallet portions of the music, I could feel myself literally shaking.
Anyway, the chosen parts of the music we had to play today were actually the easy parts of the music, so it wasn't as bad as it could've been.
The auditions lasted 5 hours. God, I got tired and hungry (although I brought some food), and it got so boring, and some of those kids couldn't even play. I actually just read my book during the timpani part after I went, because I wasn't gonna listen to all these kids butcher an easy piece.
Dang, half of those kids were bad. Like, they couldn't play their music, and if they could, a lot of them didn't play it right. Some kids played pretty well, but at least half of them were pretty bad.
I, personally, felt like I could've done better, so I believed I'd make it into the top third of players, maybe actually make region.
Anyway, after the auditions, we took our instruments apart and put them in the truck. Then we waited for results.

Guys
I made 4th chair
This means I advanced to area
Tbh, I'm still shocked, because HOLY HELL THIS IS AREA
I mean, really? I barely expected to make region¡
Now, this means I have to practice even more to play faster and better, which I don't really wanna do, but at the same time, I wanna do
And yeah. That happened.

How's life for y'all?
