My parents are raging a war again...and in the midst of it all is my piano exam which took place today. And i screwed everything up.
Scales: Made a lot of mistakes along the way...played the wrong key twice was reminded by my examiner before playing the correct one.
Pieces: Messed up 1st piece. It was a complete wreck. No melody line, no dynamics, no structure, nothing. And I made a big mistake in the 2nd part of the piece as well. Had to try like three times before i got it right again. It was really really very bad and unsteady. I think i'll fail the 1st one. Second piece got slightly better along the way, but there were still stupid mistakes that i don't normally make in the large scales ): 3rd piece was so-so, I think my rthym was unsteady in some parts and the piano made the left hand accompaniement much too loud ): I hate the piano in the exam room.
Sight reading: Was given a andante expressio piece, used pedalling, but was horrible. Bad rthym, wrong notes aplenty. Sigh.
Finally AURAL: A section all wrong I think. B section mostly correct, C section partly correct, D section so so. I FORGOT TO MENTION USE OF DISCHORD IN LEFT HAND WHEN THE EXAMINER ASKED. And instead, i said syncopated rthym. What was i thinking?!?!??! Romantic period doesn't even come close to that. STUPID ME.
I feel so mad and frustrated and helpless. I spent time, money and some effort to prepare for this final exam and it turns out like a piece of crap. I'm so stupid. I really feel like apologising to my examiner. All my performance during exam probably only showed one thing: that i was UNPREPARED. Wtf. everything was ok when i did it at home. SCREW IT. I feel so frustrated now.
I really really really really do not want to fail this exam. But everything I do is useless now. BOOHOOHOO. I'm sorry, mum. I'm really so not living up to your expectations.
