Exactly 15 hours to reporting time at Plaza Singapura for my guitar exam. Scheduled to start at 10.20am, just a short 15 min exam and i'm getting the exam jitters already. I'm not exactly ready yet and trying very hard to improve on the 2 songs which i'm tragically not that prepared.
4 songs - 2 just ok, the other 2...yucks! I hope they'll choose the piece that i'm better prepared for for my choice piece and hope i don't screw the set piece.
Scale wise - i'll be fine provided i don't panic and forget.
Chords - still struggling a bit but.....i think i can make it.
Sight Reading - petrified, hope it'll be an easier piece.
Last night to prepare, but can't push too hard either. My fingers are hurting and will drop off soon with any more pushing.
Nothing to worry (i've been telling that to myself for eons but it's not working!).
My guitar teacher had already assured he'll let me continue to the instructor grade regardless of my results. He said i've improved a great deal since group classes and since i can play the 4 pieces already, he'll give me the option of continuing to instructor grade instead of spending another 6 months to repeat it which according to him is a waste of money for my case.
Mum wants me to quit guitar after exam (which's tom), managed to push it to Dec. We shall see after that (tsk tsk!).
