On Monday we had a test on 'Non piu Andrai' in 'The marriage of Figaro' and I must say, it was the most amusing tests of all I've observed!
Last week, studying the score for 'Non piu Andrai':
Of course I knew there was going to be a test on Monday! But I didn't mean to go as far as not studying and head banging myself during the test... It was a bit too last minute for me I must say. But it certainly was a thrill to run into something like this that was worth four credits out of twenty-four. Music classes had never been more fun.
Last week, few days before the test:
Our teacher had given us sheets about Mozart and his life story. Basically this was a summary:
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born in 1756 in Saltzburg, Austria and died at 1791 in Vienna, Austria.
I am sheepishly proud that this was the beginning of one of my merit level questions, "write a short summary of Mozart's life."
Saturday:
I had a badminton tournament which was fun~ After that, I was invited to team 2's training which was known to be intense and extreme. My friends told me that unless I listened, shut up and did as I was told, I would never survive. Not even a second.
And here I am, alive and well! :D
My peers rated my performance and 'survival skills' as a 4/10 but I guess practice makes perfect right?
Sunday:
Speaking of practice, on Sunday I made cupcakes which had icing that tasted "Like dishwater's vomit", quoted by my sister. I think I beat it for too long, but I guess its a good sign to downgrade some of the recipes I try out. Maybe I should start with something more simple as shortbread.
Study? For the test on Monday?
Psh. I'd rather watch anime in my cozy bed all day. It IS a Sunday after all! :D
I also found this lovely picture for my desktop screensaver~
Just Google images 'Green tea' and you should come up with this lovely picture!
Monday:
Ohh sheeeet.
WHAT DO I DO?!?!
I woke up mentally sweating a cold bead of sweat panicking. No biggie, I'll just study before the test!
Morning tea:
Oh my god, 20 minutes to cram all these stuff into my weeny little brain! D:
We had a cram group in the library studying for the test, panicking together, praying together, joking about writing each other's wills.... Wait.
That wasn't the write time to chat!!
After the test:
I feel as if my soul left my body and would never come back. We all rushed to each other screaming about the test and what we wrote down.
Well.. I'm glad to say that I walk out of class squealing with joy as I got an excellence so hurrah!!
It is already night time so I shall retire for now.
Night! :3
Lekxly.
