Audition Results
The auditions went awesome!!! First, I did a piano audition, which just so happened to be done by Pastor Steve's piano teacher. That was crazy. She was this cute little Japanese gal and she loved my playing and wanted to know who my teaher was. The actual jury doesn't award scholarships, they only recommend to the financial aid people who deserves them. Anyways, she gave me a high recommendation for a scholarship.
Then, I did the guitar audition. The peoples looked at my application and said that since I hadn't ever taken private lessons, maybe the audition wasn't for me. I was shaking with nervousness by this point and they eventually gave in and let me play. Apparently they were very surprised at how well I played. Oh yeah, and the head of the jazz department came to my audition thanks to my friend Jodie, who just so happens to be the dean of NW's daughter. That was pretty much awesome cause everyone who listened was shocked and the head of jazz took me to his office afterwards and said that he wanted me on his jazz band! Jazz is the hardest style of guitar and I've never ever had any training in jazz and he picked me out of the hundreds to train for his jazz group! So I also got high recommendation for my guitar.... Hopefully the scholarships are big!
