Finals are so close I can smell their fetid stench of rotting meat and cheap mint-flavored mouthwash. So I've decided to vent my frustrations and tensions about them here, like many people I know are doing.
Monday Finals
Jury: This one isn't actually going to be my worse final, I hope. I feel that I've made good progress in my playing, and I hope I don't have a really off day tomorrow. I did well at a mini-studio class on Friday, and Jeremy and Erin complimenting my playing was a big morale boost. But theres always that little chance, that tomorrow my lips dry out or something bad like that, and I'll go in and fuzz everything. Fingers crossed against that.
Sightsinging (singing portion): This final might be tricky, but less so because I can write in the solfeggio syllables on my book.
Tuesday Finals
Math: THIS one is probably going to be one of the worst ones I have to take. Math has been a constant thorn in my side, and I need to pull a big coup on this to boost my grade to an acceptable level. I'm pretty terrified about this one, to be quite honest. I can't fail this class, and if I do, its gonna pull my whole GPA down.
Theory: I haven't done exceptional in this class, but I think if I can pull a good grade on this one, I will be able to get an acceptable grade. I'll do some hardcore studying.
Wednesday Finals
Sightsinging (written portion): This one is gonna be rough, but there's no way to study for this part. I guess I'll just have to take what I can get.
ISS: This one I'm not so sure about. I need to do a lot of reading on stuff, and review our coursepack, but I think I can do OK on this one.
Thursday Finals
Piano: I should do OK on this one. I've improved since my near-nervous breakdown in October about this class.
I shouldn't have written this....now I just feel more apprehensive about my grades as a whole. I fucked up for quite awhile this semester, and I don't know if my finals will be able to save my grade. Only now do I realize how important things are, and how I need to have killer grades to make the college of Ed here and continue my studies. Shit...I should be studying.
