On taking exams

I took my Grade 2 guitar exam today. The average age of the other examinees is about 14. Its easy to forget how stressful even a simple exam like this can be - pieces that I have practised a hundred times still come out wrong when there is an examiner poised to score me.

The last exam I took was my UK driving test, that was ten years ago, and I won't tell you when I took a test before that, because most of the readers of this blog were probably just starting school about then!

Anyway, its over and I should at least pass, so on to the next grade.
