Sorry to have been absent so long. I suppose I have been swept up in the collegiate spirit!
I sit with you now and face 2 auditions, one in a half hour and the other a half hour after that. I'm freaking out, to say the least haha. High school was familiar. I knew I would make the top band. It just mattered what chair. Now...not so much. I find myself second guessing my abilities. The players above me scare the hell out of me. I want to find famiarity again.
And in more sense than one. I'm missing my posse...my friends that know everything about me already, where I don't have to explain myself. "Hi, I'm Jessica Palmer. I'm from Mason City, IA and I'm a Music Education major. I play the trumpet." I miss having all my classes in one building (really!)and knowing I'll make it there in time. And honestly (please don't take this in the wrong way) I miss people knowing who I am. I'm a tiny speck here. I'm going to have to work very hard to make a name for myself here, and more than likely, it won't really happen.
I can't wait for a break. Sunday won't come fast enough!

Haha, I won't forget who you are. I officially don't have the time to have a life anymore.
Plus I'm super excited about the game on Saturday. Not to sound creepy, but I'm seriously going to 1)watch my first Iowa football game where I'm actually a student in the student section and 2)to support you and see you play!
Tua fama pulchra est. Your fame is beautiful. I was going to do "Your fame will be beautiful," but I don't know the future tense, but at the rate we're going I'm bound to learn it really soon. :P
I hope your auditions went well. You shouldn't have a problem making the top band... don't worry too much.
I think you'd be surprised, but fame can come in ways that you don't expect.
