For the past month, I've been attending taiko tryouts in the hopes of joining Asayake Taiko. I fully understand my chances of getting into the club are about 0.0000000000000000000000000000001%, but I figured that I may as well finish what I started. So, today was the last day of tryouts. I didn't have the best performance, but it's done and over with. And I am so glad it's over with. I think aside from enjoying being introduced to taiko though, I am so glad I tried out. I feel like I've met some amazing people. I really really liked my taiko tryout group. Everyone was super nice, and in the past week, I genuinely feel like we became friends.
Out of our group of 5 (including me), I feel like I really bonded to three of them. We spent so much time practicing together, and just hanging out in general. While we certainly were not the best taiko drummers at auditions, I feel like the extra time we spent together made our performance seem more cohesive and smooth, simply because we knew each other better. Okay, maybe it's just me. I'm really proud of our group though! Regardless of whether I got on the team or not though, I am so glad I tried out. Otherwise, I wouldn't have met these people!
