so apparantly my jury went well. at first, it went awful, the part beforei played. my instrument was terrible acting. the string just wouldnt tune, and so my teacher had to take it and tune it with force. that was a bit embarassing, sincei i felt like a little kid. but, then i played and then kindof looked like "well, he CAN play. so yeah, it was just his instrument. he doesnt suck." so i did good. my teacher gave me an A and he said everyone else gave me good grades. so ill find out in two weeks their comments and grades for me. some people said they did really bad. in orchestra, it was so dumb. we are doing tristan and isolde, and in one part the viola play a chromatic scale up to a high b on the a string. and of course i could play it no problem. but the first stand couldnt! it was ridiculous, the seating. the conductor even imitated them playing. and i thought "why am i in the back?" its all b-llsh-t.ugh. i have so much homework. later....
