I think I'm becoming addicted to clarinet... not in a good (or even enjoyable) way though, I just feel a constant, pressing urge, no, need to practice. No matter how much I do, it's never enough, it's never good enough, OH MY GOD I'M GOING TO FAIL LIFE. The following list of what I'm actually practicing for this year doesn't exactly help with the whole calm down/breathe thing, either:
MAY:
Chamber exam
Solo performance exam
Lesson with Alan Vivian (possibly)
JUNE:
Grade 8 exam (nothing much, really)
LATER:
More chamber
More solo performance
Eisteddfods (2)
School of Music audition (eeeeeeeeeeeee!)
CYO audition
AYO Music Camp audition
AMus exam (more eeeeeeeeeeee!)
Also, MATHS IS TEH SUXXOR. We get tests back tomorrow... the average is below 50%... school in general is also death pain...
BUT
We have 98 days of school left
AND
Mandarins are awesome. And there are lots of them around, which makes me very happy indeed. Unfortunately, this happiness is marred by a horrible, horrible thing called clarinet.
