Besides the wonderful birth of my beautiful niece Maribel...my life has gotten pretty exciting...

First, my Berklee College of Music Audition is this coming Saturday and I am soo excited and nervous at the same time but I believe I will do just fine!! I know what I am going to play and I have been practicing hard like always!!

Second, I am a FINALIST for the Buck Scholarship!! Whoo Hoo
This means that I am now a step closer to having college being paid for all the way up to my PhD!! Soo close...now I all I have to do is an interview and a some more recommendation letters and some more applications to fill out, but How Awesome is that?? I got accepted as a Finalist!! I am soo soo soo Excited, Thrilled, and Invigorated!!
Quote from letter: "Your application for a Frank H. Buck Scholarship has been reviewed by the Frank H. & Eva B. Buck Foundation staff and Board of Directors, and I am pleased to inform you that you have been selected as a finalist for the Buck Scholarship." YEAAAYY BABY!!!

How very exciting! You have so many people that are so proud. While I know we can all be sometimes overwhelming, embracing the joys and struggles of your communities with you on your adventures will lift you up!
