One Day Left....AHHHHH

May 7, 2012 at 3:12 AM

So tomorrow is the last day before me level. I am sort of freaking out because I have been working so hard and want to pass SOOO badly! I will be playing:

- 3 randomly selected scales (major, melodic minor and the respective arppegios)
- Kreutzer 2 (with diff bowings and rhythms)
- Trott 18
- Vivaldi Winter, 3rd Mvt
- Bach Partita 2, 1st Mvt

My etudes are great (as long as I keep my focus) and my pieces are for the most part fine. Although, I do still have some blurriness in my eye from having pink eye so I am hoping that doesn't get in the way. But it is the scales that I am really freaking out about. I had a "scale convention" with a friend and played them all right ecept for C#...so hopefully I will be able to work out my problem with that tomorrow. Throw in the the fact that I have 5 other exams this week (and 3 more next week) and I am in for a CRAZY two weeks. I am so glad the semester is almost over!
