24th May - Thursday
Took this picture early this year at KL. The structure of the Mosque is really well designed. It's age old ya.
Above is the restaurant the the Bird park we at ate. Yes, it's pretty cruel to be eating chicken in front of the birds. There's an unenclose area for dinners who prefer to dine with the birds.
Back to practice...

17th May 2007 - Thursday
Taught Eyoven yesterday. He gave me a pink smiley face sticker. Haha. So, i stuck it to my laptop charger. He made great improvement from the previous week. Eyoven's mum bought us ham from the market place, Raffles. Today's Belle's turn. Her exam is coming soon. So, have to polish those scales and pieces up. I think she'd do fine. I hoping for a distinction from her.
The school's library has told Yun Ping that we can start helping at the library from June. Yes, it's the moving to the new campus packing. It's gonna be real fun ^.^
Can't wait for monday. I wanna go down to the Esplanade library to get more CDs ^.^ Am thinking of any new place to visit on my way to the library. Suggestion? ( I know i should be practising. I need a breather too)
Ya...back to practice now.
*poof*

14th May 2007- Sluggish Day
Woke up feeling relatively sluggish today. I have no ideal why too. Don't bother asking. Went to esplanade library this morning, thought I should pay Aunt Shirely a visit, so i dropped by her shop at Raffles City with a bottle of Sesamene Crepe from Bread Talk.Chatted awhile with her before making my way to the library. Rushed to Orchard, Meridian shopping Centre to register for the pedagogy seminar than went back to school. Saw aniki! Yae!! haha. William brought me to the control room. Whoa...new discovery for the day... doing sound and lighting ain't easy at all. It requires lots and lots of work...Thank you so much William ^.^ Now i got the the partita^.^ It really really helps.
Watched The Phatom of the Opera on saturday. The props were totally amazing! The vocalist weren't as impressive though. Going to watch paper concerto with my dear god brother Kin Hang ^.^ Thanks for booking boy!
*yawn*..i'm off to bed ...

10th May 2007 - After a long day
Practiced one song for the entire day. Beethoven's Sonata "the tempest"..Finished the 1st movtment and still not done.
Tomorrow is the Italian concerto day. Will take the whole of tomorrow to practice that.
Went to teach at 6pm. Had a lot of fun teaching this 6 years old child who is playing grade 1 piano. She's really a bright child. Very intellgent. I tested her on broken chords and did it randomly. I left one out and ask her which one i missed. Without hesitation, she said " F major". She's really dilligent too. Last week, I made her practice with a coin on her hand so as to train her fingers to achieve individual strenght without depanding on her forearm for strength. She couldn't do it last week and surprised me today with the ability to play through the scales without letting the coin drop- she practiced hard. She's such a sweet girl too. ^.^
Simon said the Play Video symphony tickets have been sold out :( Surprisingly, William is due for NS the day before. So, we all can't watch it one way or another. Sorry bro Kin Hang..may not be able to go for that one...
Off i go for now
10th May 2007 - Complain
Ah... been practicing piano as though i've nothing else to do. The Beethoven Sonata is 21 pages long... JS Bach Italian Concerto is 18 pages long. Thank God Debussy prelude is only 4 page...That's not the end. There's one more song coming my way.*yawn* Like how much more do i need to play?

3rd May- One more day!
Had an entire week of recitals and nothing else. Tomorrow is Sherman's exam. Gambatei Aniki! Exicited to see the dancers dance to your song. ^.^
I had Candy Jie and Raymond at my house from 8 plus until 2:30am in the morning today. LoL. Practiced hard for Candy Jie's exam this morning at 9am. All 3 of us went super hyper at around 1am for no apparent reason.I wonder if it was stress or the ginseng tea. Went home straight after exam...slept from 11am until 1:30pm. It still wasn't enough. Did some cooking, had lunch and went back to sleep again. Slept 'till 6pm. Washed up, got ready to teach. New student today ^.^ So cute laa! 5 years old girl doing her grade 1 piano. Very bright girl. Had fun teaching her.
Should be practicing now...but I'm too tired.LOL...I think I will just slack off a little. Hee...
Tomorrow's theme is white and black though Aniki prefers if we could just wear white. I'm sooo happy.I'll wear all white tomorrow. I am sick and tired of black. I've been wearing black almost for two whole weeks. Why can't pianist and all other classical musicians wear something else other than black... -.-"
Type again sometime soon I hope...
logging off..
