Conclusion - Goodbye (Until a Few Months) Everyone!

Well, today is the last day of my Tech class that we will be working on our projects. I guess I'll talk a little about what I accomplished and such. Overall, I pretty much accomplished all of the goals I had set for myself. This includes posting blogposts regularly, posting cool links and videos, recording and posting videos of me playing piano, etc. I did all of this, and even discovered a cool video converter-thing that I had to use to convert all my videos which were in some crazy ".mod" format to ".mov." I learned a lot about piano, felt satisfied with my little group of followers, and was quite surprised and happy with the total number of page views I received. Although this also includes my own editing views, still, my estimate for how many of my views leaves a pretty good number of views from you guys.
So I suppose this is goodbye, except I think I might post something in a few weeks after my great shared piano recital with a senior in high school, and after I have played my pieces for this piano competition-like recital, called the Guild Auditions. During the Guild Auditions, I will be playing about six pieces, the same ones I listed  in an early post about the recital with the senior in high school, for a judge. A few days later, my piano teacher will be given the results and scores of how well I played the pieces for the judge, and will show them to me to improve my playing as best as possible. Every Guild participant also receives a pin, as well as the certificate with the results on it. Here is a little picture of a Guild pin (didn't have time to take one of the two that I have, from doing it twice):
Last year, I got a perfect score of no mistakes, and I don't mean to brag. The year before was my first year, and I got a fairly decent score. It was interesting, more than anything, to be able to know what an expert thinks of my playing, and what constructive criticism they can give to me, so that I am able to improve my playing.
Until next time!
Karen
