2011.8.4 - thursday

  This was the day we all prepared for. It was the day of the assessment. Before we start, we were given handouts for our reflections on our performance. We needed to explain the meaning of the song we sang as well. They went in alphabetical order starting the students from 9C. The first person who performed was Heidy. Right before my turn I drank lots of water to calm myself down and to clear my throat. I have to say, the experience was nerve-wrecking especially when you know you are going next. When I got up to the front I tried to gather my courage and sing. I think my voice was trembling so I guess I could have done better. But now that I have had this experience I think that if there is a next singing assessment I won't be as much as nervous until my cheeks flush red. I think this is a good way to start off the assessments so that we will have more confidence in the other assessments.
