It's finally over.

I had a tough time. I guess everyone would think they had a tougher time. For me, it wasn't really fun having to juggle work, exam, rehearsals and performance. Everyone was having holidays while I had to leave a huge pile of undone work on my desk. I can't picture how my desk will look like tomorrow.

She asked me how did my girls score on Saturday before class. I proudly told her the results. She didn't seem happy for me at all and then went on to boast about how well her girls did. Yes, no doubt her girls scored very well. But I just wished she had been more encouraging.

I was a little hurt. Nobody cares. Sometimes, it feels like a silly competition on whose girls are better. Why must teachers compete against each other? I never wanted to compare my girls with anyone. In my eyes, they are the best. I know they may not really be the best, but if they work hard, they will be.... one day.

On a better note, I went to class very enthusiatically today. Today's class already felt like 2005. I cannot wait to start my rehearsals.
