Aw I wish I was good enough to do that :P what grade are you on?

Senior cert I'm hoping to take on 2/3 people in September- if I take on anymore I might end up having to drop them in leaving cert and that wouldn't be fair to them...:(

Thanks but no :L
The pieces are only a small bit more difficult than grade eight...if you learn a difficult piece (something like clair de lune maybe) in between doing the grade eight and the senior cert the senior cert pieces are very manageable.

The scales on the other hand are a nightmare! I used to give out about the scales for grade eight...the senior cert ones are soooo muh worse!

Not sure about the theory because I haven't looked at it but I think it is mostly similar to grade eight with a few new things (like knowing how the piano works :L)

What pieces are you doing for your grade eight?

The more I think about it, the more I'm convincing myself that I did bad. I won't be able to enjoy the start of TY with the results looming but I think I've done well.

I'm excited for TY. I couldn't even imagine doing 5th year now Whenever I read a book I think about my english essay. No idea why. I'm gonna be ****ting myself looking at the envelope

Think I'm going to go to Kinsale. The nerves probably won't hit me until the day of results. Well probably have to wait until the end of the day fir them :mad: people said it was really annoying last night when teachers kept on congratulating them before they got their results... Knowing our luck, our school will have organised a 10 mile walk for the following day like last year:(

I can`t wait to get the results... why don`t they just give them to us rather than all the waiting? I`m looking forward to TY we`re meant to be going to London this year! Anyone else going abroad?? For results night all our year usually goes to Cartown disco

Ya the time kinds changes depending how long its taken them to get the results ready but its always around 9:30. I'd be so nervous if I had to wait till 3:30 you'd just be sitting there all day thinking about them.

That sounds like something my teachers would do if we had to wait ages for results. Is there any reason they make you wait till 3:30.

It could be because past students used to run back inside the school after getting the results banging lockers and screaming "I passed" hahahah

Ya we get our results at 3 o clock and we go home at 3.15! Our teachers like to keep us on the edge of our seats all day

We used to give ours out before small break in the morning, so that they would be gone before the rest of the school came down for the break.
