Dear Diary,
I came to
Valsayn in the maxi with Tyrell this morning. Three Georgian students were with
us also. As soon as I got to the office, I did not have time to eat breakfast. Miss
Roberts came into the office and signed. There was something that she said and
left. I had an idea in my mind that I came to the classroom and the students
were gone but when I went to the music room and she was already teaching.
As I went out of
the office my keyboard in my hand and my book for class Mr Warner helped me carry
the keyboard. As soon as I opened that classroom door, the ‘idea’ became a
vision because the ‘idea’ had come to pass. When We stood by the classroom door
and looked into the glass window, Miss Roberts had already done me that evil. I
took the keyboard from Mr Warner and told him to get his bag from class and
join the rest of the class in the ‘music room’. I went back to rest the
keyboard in the office and then return to the class.
During the
session, Miss Roberts took the entire class. There was a review of treble and
bass pitches. The girls that don’t study couldn’t answer the questions. After
correcting the homework, the tones and semitones game was done for the rest of
the class. I sat there listening while I had the students fill out the same
class attendance.
I went back to
the office after the class and took out my Bristol board to do some chart work.
Did not remember to bring the markers so I had the sheets cut and drew out the
pencil lines to write them out the next day. I had a sheet of blue Bristol
board to do Key Signatures in Flats and Bass cleg pitches. The green Bristol
board for Key Signatures in Flats and Treble clef pitches. I started to feel
sick.
Miss Santana had
also forgotten to come to visit me to listen to the “To the Ceiling”
arrangement that I did. Couldn’t get onto Miss Chote or the Principal so I left
a message with Isekel and walked out of the compound. I held onto my umbrella
and waited and waited. Not many maxis or taxis were on the road at that time of
day. I got five drips of rain on my head and then after a while, a maxi passed.
Daddy and I went
to the stationary store to get some more sheets of Bristol board. That evening,
I fought and fought to get at least one chart done. It took me ten and a half
hours long to get the time signatures chart completed.
