Help!! Oboe and clarinet dilemma?

Question:My band teacher (i'm in high school) gave us a list of scales to play for him last month, and we're supposed to go to him during lunch or afterschool to play them in front of him so he can check them off and we have to have them all finished by the end of this month.
the problem is, i did half of the 24 scales on my clarinet last month, and at the beginning of this month i switched to oboe (i'd asked a local music store to call us when they got an oboe and they called me so we borrowed it). i practiced my oboe over winter break and didn't touch my clarinet at all because i'd told my music teacher i would switch and i wanted to get better before school started.
i'd forgotten about the scales, and now i have a big problem because when i tried to play my clarinet today my oboe embouchure was established enough that i''d forgotten my clarinet embouchure and i couldn't play!
i'm not good enough at the oboe to play the rest of my scales on it but i've forgotten enough of the clarinet

Explain to your director your situation. He will probably understand, since a lot of professionals started on different instruments. Then tell him you want to keep working on the oboe and you will try to have as many scales as possible.

tell him what happened im sure he will understand

I would start a bonfire, burn both instruments, and join the cheerleading squad. They're use to these excuses over there.
