Must be pre-exam nerves. I've nearly caught Nat up on the top 10 posters today. It will probably all go very quiet from this end tomorrow.

You've done what!! Stop posting this instance!!
Good luck!!

Just come back from my concert. Truly was amazing, but now I am so sad, not having band on Saturdays is horrible, I have had such a great time. I doubt I'll get in next year, and I doubt I'll ever make as good a friends as I did at band. They go to different schools, are spread out around the county. I have contact details, but not the same has seeing them weekly. *sighs* Why does this have to happen?

Thanks *smiles*. I have to leave because every year everybody has to reaudition, so every year you have the best players in a band. There aren't age limits as such but at year 11, players generally move on up, only it is very hard for me to be positive (as in optimistic) about getting in, and I don't want to have to not be able to go to a band

Morning all.
Nicki, how about using this as some good old fuel to get you practising for the audition? I'm sure you're not as bad as you think you are. You can do it, we all believe in you.

Jul 5 2005, 08:07 AM
Thanks! I am

now, because I am listening to a CD which has just come in the post, with the London Symphonic Wind Orchestra playing, and we've played some of the tunes on the CD

Woo, go you. At least you don't have exams to worry about now, you can concentrate on your audition. How does it feel to be free?

Jul 5 2005, 08:15 AM
Lovely!!!!!! I wake up in the morning, and the house is mine for 6 hours!
I try and practice for 2 hours a day, I hate playing when people are in the house.
uberzoldat
Jul 5 2005, 08:17 AM
I don't like playing around others either, no peace.
I loved that house-all-to-self feeling. I stayed in and did practically nothing for 6 months when I left school. It was great. Not like having to work for a living.

Jul 5 2005, 08:19 AM
Well, I always feel they're listening to me, and I don't feel comfortable. I am off to get up in a minute, then flute practice

Morning, she says, bleary-eyed. I was so tired last night after the exam I thought I would get a good night's sleep, but no. I kept waking up after running through the scales and pieces again in my dreams. I feel this morning as if I never want to touch an instrument again!

I know how you feel! I went through that with all my GCSE exams, and flute exams, I would go over the exam in my mind. Ergh it is horrible. Have a day's rest

You have my sympathy. Yuck!
I've just been stripping the bed which the cat was sick on this morning, acccompanied by angry miaows from a cat who can't understand why I'm not feeding her when she's obviously got an empty tummy.

That reminds me of the time I was driving down the M5 and a bird flew into my windscreen....blood all over it!! Thankfully the car is undamadged....but really shook me up!!!

Jul 5 2005, 12:21 PM
Oh noo!! Cat sick and splattered bird! Yuck!
Thankfully it wasn't very gory, no blood or guts, but I still hated touching it, prodding it with a card into a bag.
