Well my exams are all but over, and I seem to have passed everything. I suprised my teacher in my practical, did well in my history assessments, finished my harmony exam with just under an hour to spare, and passed my piano proficiency. I still have my chamber music performance to go but not sure when that will be done.

So now that I've passed everything, my focus shifts to next year (already!) I've got my Concert on December 12, which everything seems to be falling together for. I've got to choose my pieces for next year, and get my teacher to say "yes, that's a good selection." I'm hoping to sit for my Amus.A next year, so I shall get my syllabus and see what I can find.

I did a big clean out of my room yesterday and today. Reorganised everything. Plus set some tasks in my mind for the holidays. Set up my practice routine properly. Study in detail a Haydn String Quartet or Beethoven Symphony. Try and compose my own string quartet (I set that for myself every break...). Be comfortable in Every key signature.

That should keep me busy.

My tone was horrible today... I think I might need some new strings soon.
