Sjoe, I meant to blog on this subject daily but life just got rollercoaster-like and I never did. Only realized I had this on here when I wanted to start a new blog on my life in Greensboro, NC. So I made it! Hubby and I graduated together on 12 Dec 2019. I was in the second-week post rotator cuff repair and calcium removal from my left arm operation, so still in a sling. Melisizwe, one of my classmates had to help me when things fell or I needed to put on my cloak as John had to sit with the Honors students. He graduated with Honors cum laude which was not surprising as he had worked really hard at it. I missed cum by 2 percentage points!!
What a year from hell this was for me. I struggled with aural the most, my practical, classical guitar wasn't doing much better. At the end of the first semester, I was in the dumps as I thought I had failed dismally. When I got my results I was pleasantly surprised that I had actually passed and not too shabbily either. The same happened with second semester and I had nightmares about me in tears cause I hadn't made it, but I did, despite all the dramas of being a student, mother, housewife and businesswoman which really took its toll and I never want to repeat another year like this. John helped me a lot and I would not have been able to do this without him. He encouraged me and kept me going when I felt like just giving up.
I now am the proud owner of a Higher Certificate in Music!!!!
Well-done me.
