Results of solo contest

I did not do as well as I had hoped...

Though I did score an excellent, but barely (above 28 is an excellent, I got a 29)

To my credit, I had Smartmusic issues.  Couldn't practice with the accompianment all weekend due to the fact that my subscription was expired.  Then when I got there, they didn't have a microphone with the Smartmusic.  My accompianment "follows" me, using the microphone to listen to when I play certain notes and going on only after I play them.  I don't know where all those "follow spots" are at, and the only way that it would go on with out the microphone would be if I pressed this foot pedal.  I was freaking out- I had enough to think about with the music.  Luckily we were able to find a microphone, but then the accompianment got too quiet and I couldn't hear it, so I got docked off in "balance and blend"  Then halfway through my solo, some girls walked in.  Thankfully, they weren't talking, and luckily my piano has drilled in my head for the past 10 years that if something happens during a performance, you KEEP GOING! No matter what, even if you make a mistake. (Having to practice with two little brothers really helps you work on ignoring distractions...) So I kept going, and my band directior was madly signalling them (she was standing next to me, holding the microphone next to my bell) to leave, and they tiptoed out.  All I heard was a door opening on my left.  I didn't even glance that way.

Anyway, I'm sick of talking about contest. Look what I found!!!!! Anyone want to get me one? This is what it sounds like...(sorry...)
As I told my band director last night, "But it's my size!!!" (If you don't know me, I'm four feet, nine inches tall- a legal midget by one inch)

k, gotta go to class...
