Well, today has been ok. But I really think that my teacher thinks that we cannot play anything that is really hard. Well, let me explain, we are trying out music for us to play next year and we have been playing some of the easiest stuff. We are having a hard time playing it, ha ha just kidding. But ya know. I had a recital on Saturday and that went really well (or so I hear) I played the Bach Violin Concert in a Minor 1st Movement and I only messed up twice, so that I could hear. There was this one part where I was playing alone (without the piano) and I decided that I was going to forget my piece right then and there. Ok, so I didnt play for about 2 measures then I got back in by using my theory skills and I thought that since that it was in A minor, well, a C should work out fine. And it did. I t was funny because everyone was telling me what a fine job I did and all I was worried about was the recovery that I made!!!!! It was great. I did well.
And today I found out that I broke my friend's TI 83 calculator. Now I am going to buy him a new one. YEAH! Well I better go now, JULES
