But exams help give a reason for me to dedicate more time to practice (while managing other committments), and that in turn, helps me in my playing.<BR/><BR/>Waterfall: Yes, there was a sense of anti-climax. I am hoping to work on sight-reading. It is a good skill to have since I play in an orchestra.oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347632.post-1154127632261182792006-07-29T07:00:00.000+08:002006-07-29T07:00:00.000+08:00Congratulations on making it through your exams.

I hope you can rest a bit and start enjoying practicing more, now that you don't have the stress of exams hanging over you.Waterfallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02560933499700939011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347632.post-1154112850000659182006-07-29T02:54:00.000+08:002006-07-29T02:54:00.000+08:00Mmm...

Congrats at completing the exams in anycase. Whether pass or fail, it's now out of your hands literally, so take it easy. Oh, it just occurred to me -- the best practice is the world might very well be to play for a "live" audience, wouldn't it? Anyway, I don't know what I'm saying, as usual... :)Ivan Chewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02727226573817276108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347632.post-1154099518853805252006-07-28T23:11:00.000+08:002006-07-28T23:11:00.000+08:00Hi Misti: Thanks.I felt I could have played better...Hi Misti: Thanks.<BR/><BR/>I felt I could have played better for my programme. I have done better for a few of my last practices. Anyway, under the exams condition, and that I was freaking out from the inside, today's exams still went better than my grade 7 exams. So I figured I could pass?oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347632.post-1154099265835286432006-07-28T23:07:00.000+08:002006-07-28T23:07:00.000+08:00i am happy you felt you did a good representation ...i am happy you felt you did a good representation at the exam! congrats! that is in itself cause for celebration!mistipurplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02483567261600728148noreply@blogger.com
