Super Bowl and Super Fast Playing Theory Man

I don't know about you...but I was sorely disappointed in the Super Bowl commercials this year. Usually, there are only 4 or 5 not so funny ones. This time, there were only 4 or 5 funny ones. AND about half of them were nasty. The Seahawks deserved to win that game though. They had one touchdown and one potential touchdown taken away from them by the silly referee.
I am so glad Ben Roethlisberger didn't get MVP. He so didn't deserve it. He had a pretty stinky game. Well, readers, you didn't come to my blog to get the stats on the Super Bowl. Other stuff did happen today. I took the Fort Worth Music Teachers Association theory test. On all the practice tests I made 98's and 99's. WELL, when I got there I pretty much breezed through the written part of the test. When the theory test guy did the melodic dictation(where you have to write down the song he plays) he did four measures at a time instead of my practices 2. AND he played it and all the other ear trainings at super speed. I have been taking the theory test for five years now and EVERY teacher has done it by 2's and fairly slowly. I tried my best but probably bombed that melodic dictation part of the test. Then to make matters worse...it was time for the bonus point. I will tell the bad part after this. I will tell a fun story first. The man said, "Who will do sight singing?" and I saw a guy and a girl raise their hand. I didn't really notice the guy(I had turned around to look to see who would sight sing). Well, the guy turned around and said, "Hannah, what in the world are you doing here?" It was Thomas Shivone! Totally random! He said, "Yeah, I saw your brother staring at me in the window and I was like 'who's that freak staring at me?' then I realized it was Ben. Then I saw you." and I said. "I take this test every year." Then he went and did his sight singing. You could hear him through the wall and it was hilarious. Everyone in the room stopped taking the test and stared in amazement. I was just laughing. Oh, Thomas. All the basses at TAFA miss you. Anyways, it is time for me to tell the bad part. I had been made so nervous by Mr. Speedy Gonzales Ear Training that I totally bombed the bonus point too. It was rhythmic dictation and I don't do well with that when I am nervous. I do it fine when not trying so hard. Sheesh, so I struggled to hold back tears(how lame is that...who cries over theory?) and went home. I felt so sad, Dad got me a blizzard from Dairy Queen. Then I felt better. :)
