So, it's late, and I should be sleeping, because I am getting up early to start my practicing early due to the fact I talked to this prodigy girl tonight and got really motivated. God, I am so competitive. I had a good lesson. I have so much to do though:
4 sections of A major in flesh book
Dont Etude (up bow staccato)
Bach partita (sarabanda and giga)
Paganini # 13
2 pages of the Tartini devil's trill

All by next week! AGHHHHH!!!! I have school starting on monday, so there will be no more luxurious 6 hour deals. I am stressed, but excited, and ready to meet the challenge..

My stupid octaves were not in tune in the Paganini tonight which was dumb because they have been in tune all week...My teacher is a stickler for pitch, so she knew I was disappointed. Ah,it will get better with work. I am so determined to work hard and to succeed
