Tomorrow's the Big Day

I'm going back to school! I have decided to start a blog to document this exciting journey. Tomorrow I will be taking my Theory Predictive Exam in order to determine whether I'll have to take a bunch of theory classes. I've been studying for 2 weeks, and school still doesn't even start till next week! I'm practicing, too, to get ready for my piano lessons that also start next week.

Do you like the name of my blog? Memoires of a Piano Hero? My friend said I'd do fine on the test, because I am "Awesomeness Personified". Wow. What a nice compliment! Also, I found a facebook "flair" that said "Piano Hero" instead of "Guitar Hero" (like the video game). Although, rather than to be a hero at a game where you PRETEND to do something, I want to be your ACTUAL piano hero, as I am playing the piano in actuality! Something I have found from my efforts in exercise and fitness is that if you want to achieve something, you have to act as if you are already in that place. For instance, if you want to have a runner's body, you have to do some running, and go to bed at night (still working on that one), and eat in such a way that it will support your exercise. At any rate, I want to be a piano hero. So what do you think I should do, besides practicing endlessly, to become a piano hero? I'd love to hear your ideas. For sure, going to bed earlier (to facilitate 5a.m. practicing) would help. I was on the Julliard website, and they say they want their students thinking IN music, not just ABOUT music. I hope the next two years will transform me into something heroic! I'm terrified and excited, all at once. Wish me luck!
