Distressed

I have piano lessons tomorrow!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I'm not ready!

I've been practicing like mad today... but I'm afraid that doesn't quite cut it. A whole freaking week without practicing...

I'm really hating school right now! In three weeks... all this nonsense will be over... and then I get to freak out about more SATs. Yay.

This week is CRAZY. Next will be crazier. And then the two weeks after that will be MADNESS.

To do -

-Complete 9 sections of self-study BC homework
-Read the Old Man and the Sea and complete 10 quotes and notes
-Write the first draft of my Mark Twain paper (#*@$@(*#&$@(*#&$@(*#&(!@*#$&!*&(
-Finish history review assignment *(@#&$(*@#&$(*@#$&@(*#
-Review for AP Chemistry
-Spanish homework
-Take a practice SAT test tomorrow FULLY RESTED THIS TIME. Let's go!
-Make you tell me your secrets for writing the SAT essay. That's the part I'm the most freaked out about.

I'm pretty swamped right now. :|

I didn't even realize I'd be taking my Chemistry STAR test on Thursday. That sucked! At least it was easy. We opened up the first page to go over the sample question and chortled and sniggered.

"Which one of these isotopes is not naturally occurring?"
-surpressed laughter-
"I'll give you a few more seconds to figure out the answer."
-everyone looks at each other and smirks-
"The answer is D."
(Aaron, sarcastically) "WHAT?! Why is it D?!?!"

Must... practice......
must... complete... huge loads of course work...
must not... disappoint Craig... and myself...

I spend at least ten minutes a day reading the forums on PianoWorld and I usually take a peek at the Piano Teachers subforum once in awhile... and I see all these teachers talking about how they're going to drop their students that don't practice and how much they hate the students that don't practice.

And I was like...

That's me!!! ):

And it's not just like they were talking about kids that don't have interest in playing... one person was specifically ranting about a student who has too many extracurriculars and whatnot and couldn't find the time to devote to piano.

AHH.

):

THAT'S ME!!!

And you.

What would you do if your piano teacher dropped you as a student because you weren't practicing enough each today?

I think I'd be heartbroken.
