Seems interesting

I live about 2-3 hours form Phili.

I've never be in a competition before so if i was to do it, it would be a new experience.

you should do it!  west chester is now an 'all steinway' school and they have a new music building that is all up-to-date stuff and really nice.  i saw it while it was being built.  have to go visit now that it is finished.  ps the teachers are very good there.

So is this like a college or Univ. of some sort?
Sounds like a place i might want to apply when i finish highschool and by then i will have improved greatly by then.

There is a music festival coming up soon in my area and my teacher plans on putting me on the list for performing and then judges are suppose to give judgement on the selection i will play, (NERVES!!). But it's in March tho.
