After
class this week, one of my music English students (a violinist) told me she would be
performing on Friday in I-Hall at the university. I thought she said the concert was at six o’clock.
So, yesterday afternoon around twenty ‘til six, I went over to the
university. (I just live across the
street). When I got to I-Hall, I could
hear music. I didn’t have my watch and
thought I must be late, oh no! I waited
for a break and went in and sat in the second row, my usual place when I go to
I-Hall. I thought it was odd that there
were only a few people in the audience, but there’s never a big turnout for these
concerts. At the end, I figured out that
I wasn’t late, I was early! This was a
last minute rehearsal. Even though I
didn’t know what time the concert really started, I ran home to see if Ted
wanted to attend. He was packing for his
weekend kayak class trip, so I returned to I-Hall alone and waited. Luckily, I
had a small stitching project with me.
Eventually more people came and the concert began for real. The concert was very enjoyable and I loved seeing my student perform.
Even
though I often don’t know what is happening or when it is happening, I somehow manage
to get by quite nicely.

I have often been to watch an english student of mine perform (guitar). Always very enjoyable. Love the embroidery colour you are using. One of my favourite colours.
It can make life very 'exciting'! and usually full of nice surprises. I think you are doing great and am full of admiration for your enthusiasm and curious nature.
How nice that you didn't miss the concert and also found time to stitch while you waited for it to start! The floss colors are gorgeous!
