Dear Diary,
I had an early
waking today for the toilet and left the house early. Daddy walked a bit
slower. I told him I usually take my time to avoid sudden pains and troubles.
He said that good in response to me. The music on the bus was “Shake de bam
bam” and the driver made every shake with the hard brakes pressing. As soon
as he stopped I got up but he masked the gas and I held onto the chairs. He
reminded me a bit of “Sly” from Marfia City but slightly more of Trini.
The walk down
Sixth Avenue was clear. A nice little boy was walking up to the Primary School
I enjoyed singing the “Our Father’s Prayer” as the students did in their
assembly. They also did the Doxology walking to the bus route. The staffroom
was empty today. I decided to do a dry fast (without water and food) today.
Miss said that was one of the two fasting and the Daniel fasting. She said that
if I wanted scriptures when I asked, pray and let it be revealed.
While finishing the
last two sentences of this very same entry, I saw the title Psalm 28 in my
head. I was truly hoping for a Psalm. 2L was the first two classes for the day.
Jess and I did not have any Upper 6 students. The class was long. Key
signatures were finally taught with this group unlike with 2F. Hunger ate my
stomach and eyes again. Jess went to look for the Grade 3 Past Paper that we
found yesterday for the Form 4s after recess. As soon as the rain poured out
onto the roof, my head got a good message. Thank you, Lord.
Recess time came
and I was sent to the Musicroom thinking that we had Form 4s now but it was 1F
to do their presentations. She called me when I gave up looking for the papers.
Mr Marcelle came and joined us in the room. There was a brief meeting and then
we spoke about the band’s name, consent forms for Saturday practices, and the
importance of attendance.
I went to 2F and
“Miss Harris” was not there. I left after speaking with Brad and Ravin. She met
me in the music room with “Miss Narinesingh” and we went through the
accidentals and the major scale formula for the day until tomorrow. Pan
rehearsal was still in session and I had to get back. I asked them to write out
C, F, and G major scales using the same formula using both clefs as homework.
After lunch, the
Form 4s were given the exam paper to try. “Mel” was writing things down from Mr
Marcelle and Jess was in the room assisting him with the pans. The students
took a very long time to complete the paper. “Maggie” was not feeling well.
Class finished late because of the “Out and Bad” song we tried to learn. On
this day Mr Marcelle also got to hear the “Yisu Ni Kaha” song that I arranged
and he liked the chords in the introduction.
As soon as I got home I had Muslim Barbeque. The song “That’s What Friends Are For” was finished with the transcription of the melody and inserting the chords. This one and the “Choral Benediction” will have to insert strumming patterns. Because of the time, I ended up in front of the television and fell asleep until 11 PM to go to bed.
