I wish my dad and I werent both so stubborn and arrogant, so we could get along better,
Mad also at a certain violist who should learn her damn part so our quartet could perform shosti tomorrow in the showcase. No can do though. She is such a slacker. I hate when people dont work!
I had a great lesson. I always scare myself because I think I am not ready, but I totally was,and she liked the tartini, and also the paganini...even though my string unraveled during the piece, majorly hindering my shifting. she was pleased with the bach also. I was even surprised by the tone I got on the saraband! I am so excited about how challenged I feel by this teacher. Like, I love to work, and sweat over my music when I am practicing...she motivates me so much to work! I love it.
I am going contradancing this weekend! I am so excited. screw prom!
