Today was the reception for Major Entrance Scholars (ie. people who won Major Entrance Scholarships), and uh, yeah, I won one… Anyway, there were a lot of amazing people! I got to meet the chancellor and president of UBC and the director of the school of music (all of whom are really really nice people). I also met other students, and I think I can really connect with them. I also got the first hug I’ve had since I got here, which is AWESOME because I am a very huggy person. There was also really good food, so, you know, that’s a plus too… :P
Also in regards to the Winter Harp, it turns out that the harpist they wanted in the first place could make the shows, so I won’t be needed. Still, I’m really happy – the fact that they contacted me at all is awesome, and I think with the extra rehearsals and stuff I’d get really stressed out.
That’s all for today :) -Samantha
Congratulations on getting that scholarship!
I was nominated, but didn’t win it. Maybe because I was so last minute with my application ._.
But to be fair my counselor gave it to me a month before it was due =3=
