Caught up on Sleep :)

I don't know what to think about today. There were some positive things along with negative ones. Well let me just tell you everything in order. There is nothing new to say about French except that we didn't discuss our homework but listened to a French song instead. It dealt with Paris waking up, different careers, some cites,... it was hard for me to understand most of it the first time I listened to it, since I wasn't paying attention enough and I was extremely tired as well.
In German I didn't have my homework, which was to read 5 chapters or even more. I just felt like not doing it because of a lack of time therefore I couldn't participate as much as I wanted to. I have to start getting interested in school once again, since it will be for the better for myself. If I continue being this "lazy" it will just get back on me sooner or later through the grades I will receive.
After German I had my spare hour which I used to do my math homework, which I haven't done Monday night. Luckily I got done in time. Towards the end I feared that I wouldn't make it. That would have been really horrible, because our teacher is in such a bad mood right now. The good thing is that I feel like I understand the way it works. I am no longer using formulas that I have learned by heart, but I understand how to use the different things. Unfortunately this is only one of the many topics that I have to know how to solve. One is better than none!!
When I came home, I set the table so that we could have lunch as early as possible, since I wanted to practice violin one more time before going to my lesson. As usual this did not really work out, since today my sisters wanted to be brought to school much earlier. Acutally this was really good, because this way my mom could send me to get some money from the bank for her. Now here is the good news: My violin lesson went great. I feel like I am getting somewhere. My work pays off. What I still have to learn is playing the pieces that are "up to my level" before an audience, because I didn't practice that in a long time. I think this will be my biggest problem - the presentation.
After teaching three of my kids I went to sleep, since my brother had the car and didn't take out my violin and my school stuff. I was glad that I had an "excuse" to go to sleep. I am sure, that if all of my stuff would have been there, I would have started working on my homework. Anyway, I woke up around 9:30 pm since I had slept 5 hours already. I went downstairs to get started with practicing and doing my homework. Surprisingly my brother had not returned home. I got upset and my mom was upset as well, because he was supposed to be home by 5 pm. Since there was nothing else for me to do, I ate an apple and practiced piano for an hour. Right now I think that it is pretty pointless to practice the pieces that I got assigned, since they are too hard for me, and we have to choose different ones... but still, practice is practice.
Now at 11:30 I am finally done with all of my homework that I want to do today. That doesn't mean I am finished though, but there is nothing left due tomorrow.

    Wow! It sounds like you had a really productive day. And yes, I think that your work will pay off, too. You work so hard... you will see that it pays off. I guarantee it. Just be patient.
