Bang! Wake up!
That's the alarm.
You check the time.
5:00 am.
"Maybe I could sleep a bit longer.."

Bang! Wake up!
5:30 am.
"Sn..snooze."
*
Bang! Wake up!
6:00 am.
"Snooze!"
*
Bang! Wake up!
6:30 am.
"That alarm is SUPER annoying! So I might as well eat and get ready."
*
"I'm ready! Now what time is it?"
*Gasp*
"It's 8:00! I'm going to be late for piano!"
You rush out the door with your piano bag in hand.

Ding dong!
A lady answers the door quickly, looking angry.
"You're late."
"Only a minut-!"
"Come in."
"Yeah.. thanks.. Mrs. Abby."

"Did you practice your songs?"
"Sure.. I mean! Of course I did!"
Phew! That was close!
"The first song you were supposed to practice was Little Elephant.
"Okay. Little Elephant. That sounds easy. I can do this."
"Don't forget. C D E F G G G, G F E D C C C.
*Deep breath*
"C D E G I MEAN.. C D E F G G G, G G OOPS.. G F E C.. G F E D C C C.."
OH MY GOD! I DID SO BAD!
"You passed."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Good job?"
"I guess."
"Thanks Mrs. Abby!"
"The next song was Small Scale. You practiced this song too right?"
"Yep.."
"Go ahead then."
C D E F G A B C! C B A G F E D C! I can pass.

"That's not a pass."
"No!"
*
You passed.
*
You didn't pass!
*
You passed.

You passed again.
*
You passed. Again.
*
You did not pass!
