Hi! Have any of you here participated in piano contests before? I have participated in several small ones but never in a big one. Can any of you tell me what it is like at a big piano contest?

Yes, 2 of them. They are very nerve racking... Especially when you have to memorize them. But it doesn't matter win or lose! Just work on technique, and you will be fine. Get help from your piano teacher if you need!
Sorry I’ve never been to one but I wish you luck!
I've done recitals but never actual contests. That sounds really neat!
Just a reminder, if you follow me, I will follow you too!😊
Can you follow me?
Can you follow me too?😃
Sure!
Thanks!
Hi guys! How are you guys? Sorry I have not talked with you guys for a while. By the way, you guys may have known me as Ljun1 last year. I missed you guys!
You and @book_addict are really twinning! 🤣
I remember you. Welcome back!
Welcome! I remember you!
Hey welcome back! 😃
What do cows drink? (I guarantee someone will think milk on the first one.) A. Water!!!
i've been asked this far too many times now my mind instantly goes to water well actually Wasser now since i try and speak german as much as possible IRL
I did too! LOL
Yes, I did think Milk!
I knew the answer was water, but my mind immediately went to milk 😆. You got me on that one!
Ooh that was a good one!
You got me!
Yes you are correct, I did think milk first! 😂 Fun fact thanks for sharing!
Does anyone here have braces? I just got mine off and I have to wear retainers for six months before I can completely get rid of them during the day..
Getting mine off next week!
I am getting them soon, I hope they aren't painful.......
Don’t worry it wasn’t painful for me…you’ll do great!! 👍
I have a very high pain tolerance, so it should be fine, the only reason I was worried, is bc my girl cousin got braces, and she cried all night. But I should be fine.
Same, I was only scared because my sister told me it would be super painful but seriously it is no big deal at all! It just takes about an hour or so to get on. Then it takes about a week to get used to but after you get used to it, you won’t even mind them at all 😁
I got braces, too! I just got my bottom brace off so I have to wear retainer for six months until can only wear it in nights.
Oh my word! The same thing happened to me too! I got my bottom off first and then a month later they took off the top!
Wait really?!
Yes, I'm actually getting mine off next week!
Good luck, it’s super fast and easy! The best part is that they polish your teeth which makes them really glossy feeling!
Exciting! It might hurt though, especially if you have sensitive teeth. But I won’t scare you, because everyone is different 😜. Good luck, anyway!
I just got mine off just a few days ago too!!!! I had to do the same for a little bit but now I can only wear my retainer at night. Also I have a wire behind a few of my teeth which I have to wear for 6 months. Congrats on getting your braces off!!!
