Band

In band there is a thing called solo ensamble where Hawkins {teacher} gives the whole calss music.Different songs for different instruments.I had 3 songs {along with the 2 other perrcussion players} one on timpani one on snare and one on the marimba.We practiced for about a month and then all of the students had to record it for a judge to listen to.So yesterdy Hawkins went to listen to the trumpet tapes {1. he's a trumpet player 2. he's a judge for trumpet}and all of the judges were listening to the instrument that they played.Today Hawkins came to class and told us who all made it.I WAS ONE OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!! They had 22 schools try out and out of those 22 they only picked 5 people who play perrcussion.
Hawkins said that the people who were picked wil get a song that they have to practice and around some time in january we will be going to Alpeana to preform with the others.This is all free.Hawkins said it will be like two days.The hotel is free.And the food is free.I'm very happy.Just thought I'd let you all know.
Luv U all

We are all very happy for you as well! However, those hearts are very annoying (but cute!)

I agree that the hearts are cute for about 10 seconds. We are very proud of you. And, we know how much you love free food (yuck!).

I was able to tune out the hearts long enough to be proud of you.
