   I'm scared, unsure, confused etc.. Mixed feelings
I don't know what to do. I don't understand why my band director would choose me. I don't practice THAT much. Heck! i only practiced once or twice over the summer. I don't practice the recommened amount of practicing. I don't have a lot of tromboning experience.(this is gnnwan's third year of playing. that's only 2 full years since i didn't even know how to open my case) I don't take trombone private lessons so why me?
I like band and all that but i don't understand. I tried out for jazz band the VERY VERY VERY VERY last minute last year and played 3rd trombone (out of the 3 trombones there were)Even though i'm in band 3, i was in band 2 last year. Plus, i never played in a symphony before, only band. We have string orchestra but we only combine to symphony @ the end of the year in band 3. (remember i wasn't in band 3 last year!)

I really don't know. The thing is my band director is also the director for the _____(insert city name cuz doesn't want to share her location) Youth Symphony Orchestra (_yso). He wants me to play in __YSO because he really needs trombones and really wants me to play in it. He said i'll get a scholorship and they can pay half of the money thing that covers the whole year. And i don't need to try out and i'll automatically be in the symphony. But i'm a very doubtful about it. The ppl there probably more experienced or have private lessons. Over the summer they went to Europe to play!!!!!!!!!! (that's like insanely good kind of symphony)

I don't know what i should do. I do have some transportation problem but if i really wanted it could probably get there. I feel like i'm really doubting myself but i'm really not sure if i can do it. I was kind of thinking to try out for __yso but now i know that if i join i'm already in, it really make me VERY unsure.
HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

btw, haven't discussed with parents yet.... Going to tonight.
