My trip to Memphis

October 05 2005
Ok, so we drive down to Memphis on Monday, long and boring right? Yes.

Tuesday I went over to the music building (which is alot like Tech's) and went up for my lesson. We played duets, I don't know if I impressed him much though, I didn't warmup all that well...but he knows it. Later, I went and met the director of admissions for the music school, who is one of the nicest old women ever! My mom got sick from being nervous and had to leave. So she walks me over to the band directors office and I met with them and what not.

After lunch we went on the college tour with this girl that sat next to Ruth at all-state who wants to go to UM and two of the horn majors there. One of them (we called her Elvis) was really awesome, the other (Matt) was cool too. They disagreed on everything, it was funny. So we went on the college tour and my mom was asking Elvis and Matt all these questions. The campus is really nice, like all the buildings are in walking distance of each other. And everywhere there is to eat on campus has sushi!

So we went to eat dinner after hanging out with Matt, Abby (the other girl) and Jessica for a while. (Jessica is Elvis.) And came back for the band concert, which featured the brass quintet. OMG! The band is amazing! They played "Shadowcatcher" better than Tech did, I thought. But yeah, it was awesome.

Then we drove home, got back at 12:30 and slept.
