Yes, so remember that lacy sampler scarf I was working on? It is finally finished! It’s beautiful and so soft!
I was very excited to find out yesterday that I am going to be able to attend our state’s Summer Arts Institute. It’s pretty selective and intense, but I can’t wait! It’s going to be for two weeks in June. I’m glad because I think it’s going to be very helpful for me to have some instruction over the summer, especially for like eight hours a day.
Next weekend I have my auditions for youth orchestra. I’m hoping I’ll be able to move up to the highest orchestra in the program. Really I should be working on that right now, but my solo’s pretty good…grr I just have to pick which three octave scale to go with. My friend thinks I should do B — the complete hardest. I’m thinking more of G though…I just hope I don’t mess up!
Speaking of my EOIs, they went great! I only missed one on both of them. I don’t know which on the math, but I have a feeling about the science one. Something about the unit of measurement you should use when measuring a cork cell. Previously on the test, and in class, it had been mentioned that we use micrometers when measuring a cell, but I guess they wanted me to go with nanometers since it’s the smallest. Ack so complicated!
I got a haircut recently! It’s much shorter now (though I guess still considered long). It feels so nice!

I should probably get a haircut soon… it’s gettin’ long :p
Sounds like your summer’s gonna be fun. Mine’ll probably be boring – although I will be going to my sister’s university graduation in a little less than a month
The drive is about an hour and a half or so, which means I’ll have plenty of time to read – and knit, since I’m participating in the Harry Potter Knitting and Crochet House Cup

I live it when I finish scarves. They take forever.
It definitely sounds like you will have a fun summer.
