Ugh my life already sucks, yet I still have to go to this bummer school in three more hours. Yup three! You've guessed it! Why? Well, because sleeping is not an option when I have to go to this stupid school in a few hours. School is just a bunch of junk piled up only for nerds and prodigies to remodel. I mean hey I’m smart, but I have a lot of dumbfounded moments. And when I have those the world could collapse in a matter of seconds if I don’t fix them quick. I get A’s and B’s with some…

At 0:30 one of the violins split off and plays the main melody as a solo while the rest of the instruments quiet down and begin to play the bass notes in the background or continue as fillers.
