You know this fic feels really cathartic. I hope Rachel's dad doesn't find out she spent half of her piano practice not practicing the pieces she should have. I kind of want her to keep the positive emotion of playing with Brittany.
The small rebellious act of balling up the small note and then franatically smoothing it out again? I did that, like a million times. Did something rebellious and then freaked out and tried to unmake it.
I kinda dislike Shue a lot in this. He was called by Rachel's father about the practice and not only does he not put 2 and 2 together, but he is also annoyed when Rachel tries to comply with her fathers wishes? He's such a self-absorbed ass. And unfit as a teacher I find.
Amazing chapter! Can't wait for more!

I love that you fill my LJ with pretty Veronica. Thank you! :D

Aww, I'm so glad that this seems to be helping you in some way. :D And don't worry, her little detour to helping Brittany play piano will just be their little secret. :D

I was lucky because I've always had parents that just want me to be happy and do what makes me happy. But I can understand the pressure that someone puts on themselves just to please their parents.

I also don't like Mr. Schuester that much. I find him a really bad example of what a teacher is supposed to be. It drives me nuts, tbh. And I don't really have any plans for side storylines for him in this fic, but I don't find his presence all that important to the story either. lol.

Thanks for reading and reviewing again! :D Thank you for coming back for more each time, even knowing that it hits a little too close to home. *hugs*

Every LJ should be filled with pretty Veronica. And pretty KB. :D

Yay! Little secrets like that are very fun and liberating. :)

Well my parents always tell me they want me to be happy and let me do what makes me happy. But combine that with pressure. But in the end, they let me pick what I studied at University, even though their plans were different. So they're not that bad.

I hate him most of the time. Then usually fandom gets me to tolerate him and then I hate him again. LOL I was incredibly annoyed when he was in the fic, so I'm happy that he plays no role at all. LOL

Your welcome! And never fear, I'm masochistic at heart, so I'll be gladly coming back! ;) No, I like confronting myself with things I've already mostly gotten over. It's therapeutic. :) And you handle it really well, so I don't even feel angsty while reading. *hugs* So THANK YOU! :D

*sigh* I love KB. ♥ ♥ ♥

I understand. My parents don't pressure me but there's a sense of it. You know? I blame it on Catholic guilt. ;)

I didn't mind him at first but I really can't stand him all that much now and I really don't want a storyline for him. He's kind of just going to be there to move the glee club along. And for Rachel to argue with. :D

I feel bad because I just finished writing a part that is kind of really angsty so I hop it goes over okay with you. You'll have to let me know. Don't be angry with me. Please?

KB = ftw. ♥ ♥ I adore her.

Hahaha, guilt. Oh I could write pages and pages about guilt. LOL I think with all parents there is some kind of pressure. The intensity and the understanding if you do something differently differs. Mine are ok in the understanding to a huge degree, but the intensity is a bit off. :)

Heee, as long as Rachel wins these arguments I don't mind. :) She'd be a much more competent director.

It'll be fine! Seriously. Don't worry. But I'll let you know if it isn't. Thank you for being so worried about me. When are you posting the next part? :)

[an_an0maly]

I could write pages and pages on guilt as well. Lol. I agree that with all parents there is some kind of pressure - whether academically or otherwise. I'm the youngest of five kids and only the third to get a Bachelor's Degree from a University. I'm also the first that went into a profession that is underpaid and under-appreciated (especially by some of my own siblings). I get pressure, though, not just for work or studies but in all other aspects of my life. Oh well, we all have to push through it somehow.

I also agree that Rachel would be a more competent director. I think she'd be really intense and need someone to pull her down from the authority-high she'd be experiencing, but she'd get stuff done.

I should be posting the next part today. :D And of course I worry, I don't want to upset anyone. I feel bad when I do.

[motylik]

That has to be hard too. You are doing such an important job, being an educator, and hardly anyone gives you the credit you deserve. If it's people in your family it sucks even more. Pressure sucks. But it doesn't really work without it at least in some form.

Oh yes. If she'd have someone who controlled her 'crazy' she'd be amazing.

Yay. :) You haven't upset me so far. :)
