My proudest/happiest moment

I have a lot of moments that made me proud or happy, but the one that first comes to mind is the time that I made first clarinet in band. I switched into band halfway through the first semester this year, and I could hardly play my instrument. I was struggling with the easiest music that we had. I practiced really really hard for the placement test, but I expected that I would get stuck in third clarinet because I didn't feel very confident about it.

When I came in the day of the results someone congratulated me in getting first clarinet and I honestly thought that they were joking, because there could be no way I had done that. But I checked and I had, in fact, gotten first clarinet and it was extremely exciting. I'm very proud of myself for practicing so hard and doing something that I enjoy.
