…Today was a terrible day.
It was my grade 4 piano exam and it was terribly nerve-wracking.
But I hope, at least I think, it went all right.
I had to sign in and out of school, which was a bit silly as I had to sign out at
9am, having only arrived half an hour or so before.
I signed back in at 9.56am.
I’m really just glad it’s over, because it was now allows me to, as it were,
step into Christmas.
In fact, we discussed our Christmas play in class this morning,
which I am directing…
Looking ahead in my diary, I see that this “play”, such as it was, got one performance in an assembly, and that was it.
Not only was I the director, I was also the writer. It was a loose, free-form kind of play, which ended with everyone being blown up.
I don’t think it had anything to do with Christmas whatsoever.
Nonetheless the rehearsals were quite good fun, and I think it helped ingratiate me with the rest of the class.
As for my piano exam, it is typical of me to dwell more on the time I spent away from school than the contents of the exam itself. The former was something I could be sure of, unlike the latter.
