ARCM
ARCM is the abbreviation of the diploma qualification Associate of the Royal College of Music and the post-nominal letters a holder is entitled to use. Like the LRAM it was formerly offered in a teaching or performing version, but unlike the latter it is no longer available.
There is no obvious successor to the ARCM, since the College's undergraduates now follow a BMus(Hons) course accredited by the College itself; although in 2012 approximately a quarter of the academic staff included ARCM in their lists of qualifications. When the basic graduate course led to the GRSM "graduate diploma" a condition of graduating was an ARCM pass achieved no later than a year before graduation.

Origami
by: Ani DifrancoI am an all powerful amazon warrior
Not just some sniveling girl
So no matter what I think I need
You know I can't possibly
Have a need in this world
Come and come for that sweet sweetness
I'll be your never ending vending machine
I could never need to be alone
Never need to be my own
As much as you need your queen
I know men are delicate
Origami creatures
Who need women to unfold them
Hold them when they cry
But I am tired of being your savior
And I am tired of telling you why
And since when did this me me me
Become the be all and end all of me
Oh listen to you talk to me
Long time love has got to breathe, babe
You got to let it ebb and flow
If you want a ball to bounce
You gotta let it go
Just let it go
I know men are delicate
Origami creatures
Who need women to unfold them
Hold them when they cry
But I am tired of being your savior
