Scales

I never thought I'd hear myself say this but I'm even enjoying playing finger exercises (scales) when I practice. I think I've found a goal to my playing besides learning to play better. I'd like to play like my teacher. She can play anything from rag to classical.

Keeping my impatience in tow is a major priority since now that I've practiced for an hour or two I want to play like a concert pianist. Or, run out and get my own keyboard. Better just rein it in and keep practicing first.
