Scales

So I'm gonna do my music exam and I've got to be able to play like, 20 scales. Hang on, I'll count them. 3 Major scales, 3 Harmonic Scales, 3 Melodic Scales, 3 Major Arpeggios, 3 Minor Arpeggios, 2 Major Broken Chords, 2 Minor Broken Chords, 3 Chromatic Scales (but those are easier coz if u can do one u can do them all) and 3 Major Scales in Thirds. So all up... 25 scales. I need to be able to play these perfectly (from memory btw). Along with 5 or 6 songs, which I also need to be able to play perfectly.

But I'm not particuarly worried. Scales help so much with my playing noramal music, they're almost essential to it. Its possible to play them without it, but they help heaps. So chances are looking pretty slim that I'm going to be able to get 25 scales and 5 songs perfect by exam time, but that isn't going to stop me from trying. Plus, if my teacher doesn't think I'll be able to do it, she won't let me do my exam this year which means instead of a bad mark this year, by the time the exams come around next year I'll get like an A+ or something. Which would be awesome!

And now I'm in a surprisingly good mood. :O Which is kind of weird considering my position scales-wise atm. lol. ah well.

Better get back to practicing then :) cya
