Waiting....UGH!
This isn't very important, if you don't want to read it, you don't have to. Really.
Chapter 1
Rollings.
Rollings is a school of the arts. You can try out for Visual Arts, Dance, Vocal Music, Theatre Arts, or a music instrument. No Creative Writing, though. :( But anyways, you can try out for two things. You have to pick a first and second choice, so if you make it in for both, you'll go for your first choice.
I tried out for Theatre Arts (First) and Visual Arts (Second).
My audition was YESTERDAY.
I was scared out of my mind. My art audition was first, and we had to draw this weird thing with naked baby dolls and flowers and guitars and giant building blocks. I did TERRIBLY.
The only people I knew there were two people who I don't like very much from my school, my best friend Lilah, and my crush, Evan.
Evan was the first to finish. Of course, he's an amazing artist.
But yes, afterwards I was led into a hallway and I sat in a chair in front of the Theatre audition room. I silently practiced my monologue, and did a few stage fright exercises my sister had taught me.
When they called me in the room, I was still pretty nervous. I did my monologue pretty well, in my opinion. Then, they gave me a notebook and told me to pretend it was my diary, and to read a diary entry I had written. (It was Improvisation). I did that pretty well too, but I'm still super scared.
This school is REALLY hard to get in to. Just in Theatre, 303 people tried out, and only 40 are gonna make it in.
They don't mail us the results until February 17th.
ALL of my friends are trying out. All of them. So, if just one of us doesn't make it in I'm gonna be....well, these are the thoughts that have been going on in my head since the audition.
I did pretty well, I think I'll make it in.
But what if I don't? What if all of my other friends make it in, but I don't?
Or what if one of my friends don't make it in, but I do? I'll feel so guilty!
Do you understand? So, I basically just made this to tell you guys that. Wish me luck, If you want. Because I'm going to be praying every night that I get in. And, by the way, expect a message from me on Feb. 17. Whether I make it in or not, it's gonna be REALLY urgent!

Good Luck I hope you get in.
Thanks!
Goooood luck!
Don't worry too much! I bet you did great honey! I hope you get in. I can tell you really want this. Just hope for the best and if you don't make it, it will be okay. All your friends will not make it if you don't. You said yourself it is a hard school to get into. So you will still have your friends and your life ahead of you to make the best of.
Sometimes what helps me is I let whatever happens happen and if I don't get in then I tell myself that maybe it wasn't the right path for me to take.
Wow, thanks a lot. This means a lot, all of you, thanks so much! If I make it in, I will thank you all, even though you did basically nothing....just motivation, but seriously! Thanks!
No need to thank me. It is my pleasure! I'm happy it means so much to you. I was hoping to really make you feel better about the whole worry of getting in or not.
Best of luck! Trust me, it's going to be okay! Just believe in yourself! And even if you don't get in, remember that that doesn't mean you're not good enough. You are good enough! Love you, and good luck!
Thank you sooo much!!
You're welcome! It's going to be just fine, trust yourself :)
Awww
Hey, I've went to entrance exams too. Except it's for brains, not talents. That school must have been great, and my results were on the fifteenth, just two days before yours. XD
You can always go to other schools. It doesn't matter if it's not for Arts, it's not like you can easily get a job from that and financially support yourself.
You tell us not to sympathize, but I'm dead-serious when I tell you it doesn't mean you're not good enough. Each year, thousands of talented people don't get picked. It doesn't mean you're not talented enough. It means they prefer someone else's style and have to make hard decisions. I've been rejected too, and then later on, I won a prize! Don't give up.
