I'll bet I flunked or almost flunked my Spanish test. I didn't study and I know it. Also, I was pressed for time. I'm always the last one done. We had a Geometry quiz and I did very well, I think. It's about time!
I didn't have music! Yippee. A reprieve! We went shopping instead. I got a dress pattern and some cool material, too. I also got "Willow Weep for Me". Bob got "I Feel Fine". He can have it. b/w "She's a Woman".

The music class I was so happy to escape was an enrichment course at a local private school, Wykeham Rise. It was some sort of arts outreach program for the local riff-raff, and my older brother and I both went there once a week after school. Bob was taking drama and I was one of two students taking music. By January, I was getting tired of the weekly performance stress -- having to play piano or recorder in front of my teacher. The drive to and from WR with Bob, on the other hand, was hilarious, as he entertained me with caustic imitations of our teachers.
"Willow, Weep for Me" was a cover of an old ballad by a British pop duo, Chad and Jeremy. I was much taken with them -- especially Chad Stuart, the one with the glasses. Clearly, I was less fond of the Beatles' latest, especially Ringo's utterly boring "She's a Woman". The only thing interesting about Ringo was his uncanny resemblance to my elementary school friend Patti. Poor thing.
