	mlunapiena01 (2 months ago) hmmm, looks like we both didn't get to Dotzauer (I was sick this week ...) Maybe we should make this into a new years thing ... I find that getting started is the hardest part...

	CelloMel (2 months ago) Well, audition video is done! I wish I had another week or two to iron out the last wrinkles, but all in all I am really happy with how far I've come. I'm really enjoying watching all the audition vids pop up tonight. So much talent out there! Good luck to all!
	CelloMel (2 months ago) Auditions are days away!! I've come so far and yet I'm still miles away from where I hoped to be by now. Gonna need a miracle these next few days....
	cky1616 (2 months ago) Glad to hear that you're still auditioning! : D
	CelloMel (3 months ago) cky1616... I had to stop posting for a while as we had house guests for over a week and a half and I didn't have as much time to practice, upload, and edit my rehearsal videos. I also spent several days going back to basics, re-learning my bowing hand, reviewing finger positions up on the fingerboard, etc, so there wasn't much progress on the actual audition pieces. But this week will be do or die. We'll see how things go!!
	cky1616 (3 months ago) Hey! I noticed you stopped posting your blog videos! Are you still auditioning for the YTSO?
	CelloMel (3 months ago) Thank you TrabalRipoll... I know it doesn't sound very good right now, but I am trying to show my kids that nobody sounds perfect on their first try but with small steps, you make progress. Hopefully in 3 more weeks my music will be on par with some of the other cellists auditioning.
