baby supertitious!

ok today was crap :(

well only a small 5 minuets of it was.

i had to do a progress recital (mini performance) for Music 1 2, and it was bad. i stuffed up and completely had a mental blank during the middle of it D: and stopped. then restarted that section. ARGH!! D:

oh well.

i also had a music theory lesson this morning at like 7.40 . that was crap too cos i suck at theory, my teacher used red pen and heavily marked the incorrect answers (which btw is like every second one)  and only gave small ticks. o.o? and then she wrote SEE ME ABOUT THIS NOW in caps red pen. and then she graded at the end of the three chapters she marked: Pass+ only.

 well okok! i get it ok?

tonight was  the year 7 orientation thingo. and i had to stand/sit at this table, and talk to parents etc. about leadership. well i didnt really know what to say. so i improvised:

"hi, have a lollie, and feel free to take a info sheet,"

and then, while they have almost read enough, i say:

"Here at balwyn high, we really encourage leadership,

not just for year 7's but for every other year level too.

this is because there are so many experiences 

and things you can take out of being a leader.
It really sets them up for life beyond school."

 then they say:

"well isn't it too late to become one? because they are all decided already?"

then i say:
"well it doesn't matter if you missed out this year, because there are other programs/groups you can join. also you have like 5 more years at Balwyn, so there are still plenty of opportunities to become one."

then i say to the kid next to the parent:

"become a leader, it's good fun. :D"

and then they walk off.

and that's what i did for an hour or so. just the saying the same thing over and over,

and we have to do it again during the day tomorrow :/

and Mr. Duckmanton was like looking and listening to one of those talks i had, and hes like (in a mocked up animated voice):
"y'know, you really have to sell it! be like, 'your kid could be like *points at pictures* Obama! or Mother Theresa, or Nelson Mandela, or .. this random guy in a hood..' your kid could do great things being a leader! and other etc." LOL thanks Mr. Duckmanton. great advice :D
