So I'm finally back from Mansfield expecting to be blown away by everything and everyone, and honestly, I wasn't as thrilled as I was comming back from Clarion. I mean, the audition went generally well, my aural skills and sightreading went really well, the theory test could have probably gone better, had I remembered all this melodic and harmonic crap with the major scales, I was lucky to remember at least something about augmented and diminished scales... thank you Mealey!!!
Everyone seemed generally nice and well, not totally thrilled but oh, I dunno. I have a tough decision awaiting me. Both colleges have what I want, but it's just, blah, I dunno what to do! HELP!
Things have kind of been odd between me and a few people lately. Mainly the group who pranked me onstage during rehearsal. I really need to get over this crush. Honestly, I don't stand a chance with the guy, it's just, grrr. I've been fooling myself all friggen year even thinking I stood a chance with him and to be quite honest, it sucks. I mean, things were fine during marching season, and now, it's just, we're spacing ourselves from each other, what do I have to look forward to? Prom? No chance in hell. Then the question is, who in God's name do I ask?! Hell, I could go stag, apparently you do have more fun if you go stag... but then again, It would be nice to find a group and not end up as like, the 3rd wheel... holy shit, talk about venting...
Grades, good, college search, good, school itself, wish things were better, wish I actually had like, decent friends in my own goddamn class. I mean, the underclassmen usually rock, I love hanging out with the people I have now... sigh... if anyone knows someone at Coughlin who they could hook me up with, let me know...
Every now and then, I wish I was back at Pocono Mountain, I mean, I knew my place, I had my friends, etc. etc. etc. everything just changed so quickly. It was kinda scary actually. First, PM split, then Wisconsin, I had a rough few years.
I'm just not switching colleges however. Looking ahead, it should be fun. I'm actually kinda anxious about college. I guess I'm just fed up with the immaturity of high school and am looking forward to meeting people who actually, well, grew up. People who really care, not to say my friends don't care now, but, I'm ready to make something of myself. I'm ready to spend the next four years of my life actually becoming something that I enjoy. A more seasoned musician.
I'm kind of starting to doubt making states. I haven't been working as hard as I could. If I was, for example, Alisha Austin, I'd probably be working my ass off right about now. Why should I be complaining if I don't make PA all state? I already have a state festival under my belt... well the camp at least... but still, I made states, and I had fun. Obviously, I will be kinda bummed if I don't, but oh well, I'll move on. I had fun. Sigh, anyways, off to work on region music...
