Teacher's audit over

Thank God, it's over!

I passed despite messing up on my pieces out of sheer nervousness. Ugh. It's humbling when I think about it because then I know that it was God who made sure that I pass despite my unimpressive performance. (If I were the examiner, I would have totally failed me, and it's not because I am being too hard on myself.)

I think I might use beta blockers the next time I sit for a music exam though.

My examiner looked at me kindly at the very end and commented, "Surely you've been through worse moments than this in med school?"

"Yes," I said thoughtfully. "But med school was so long ago..."

We proceeded to chat about church work, because it turned out that she's a Christian too.

Anyway, the audit is done and dusted. I celebrated in the evening by going out with the hubs and Sophie for Japanese food and ice-cream.

To those who prayed for me, helped me with my pieces, and believed in me ~ thank you.
