I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

I got a shock today. And it was one of those rare occasions when it was good news that left me tongue tied. Not often that happens. What happened was that as we were submitting our pottery stuff for the festival next weekend, we were asked to price our stuff. Well, I have very little idea how much my work is worth since I still consider myself a student at best, so I just took a wild guess and tagged all the smaller pieces at $20-$30 and $50 for the larger ones. And was told by the Japanese teachers at the class that I was crazy to do that. They said my stuff was worth much more and marked up everything a 100% - I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it!

It's nice to think that my teachers who are ceramic artists on their own country, think my work is worth that much! Now, if only I could have had good news about my tennis as well...*sigh* I can work my opponent side to side and set up the point but when it comes to finishing it, I end up hitting into the net or send the ball over the baseline. I only managed to win 4 points out of 17 - and none of those four points were on my forehand side. I really need to learn to end points more effectively AND find a better way to play my forehands more effectively.
