Tuesday, August 21, 2007

Hectic week man.. another week has gone.. 2 more weeks to go.. so sianz.. last week my teacher recorded my playing.. it was so horrible.. haha.. he described it as "a disaster".. then "u play like a grade 8".. honestly.. thanks.. i already know that.. arghh.. i'm sick and tired of prac.. really.. what;'s the point man.. prac also no improvement.. dun prac also the same.. why waste time and effort.. so anyway.. i had to stay at cristofori till 9pm yst.. cos i owe the school 2hours.. and so i recorded my playing.. jus to listen to it.. to spot the mistakes.. plus see if i can improve after each recording.. here's the "better" ones..






so how is it?? haha.. anyway.. i'm really unlucky this year.. everything is not going my way la.. first i fall ill all the time.. takes forever to recover.. then my piano no need to say le.. then this wed.. i'm supposed to do toastmasters.. table topics with a colleague.. and very lucky.. she cant attend.. so i have to do it alone.. for 10min.. i think i'm going to be the FIRST ever in cristofori to do table topics alone.. how nice.. really nice.. i'm so damn unlucky.. wat the hell is wrong.. arghh!! muz go pray le.. cant take it anymore.....

exams is coming!!!!!
Monday, August 13, 2007

O GOD!!!! HELP ME!!!! my dip exam is coming!!!! 3rd of sept?!!! i was hoping it will be like at the end of sept.. but NO.. its like the FIRST mon of sept.. no diff from having the exam tml.. damn.. i'm soooo dead.. i have nv feel so goner before an exam.. i'm usually sufficiently prepared.. not like now.. i cant even play it yet.. not to mention i have not memorized it.. and have decided i will not be able to do it.. so i gave up.. jus read from the score.. hopefully not to be penalised.. and it really helps to know that there's a sight reading section.. where I have to jus look at a Grade 6 score and play it.. GREAT.. then there's also a discussion.. where they will bombard me with qns..

Haiz.. dunno what to do.. only 2 weeks left.. everything not ready.. no time to prac.. really wonderful.. now i really regret starting work so early.. should have wait till i finished my exams before starting work.. see.. i thought if i worked as a piano teacher.. i can get to prac more and also be in a better environment.. i am so wrong.. there's no grand piano at my branch and i really need to prac on a grand.. then i have so many students that i dun have time.. not to mention its always so cold that my fingers freeze up.. cant even move.. real goner.. there goes my $615 *or rather.. my mum's* haha.. I have never thought to stop learning piano.. but now i'm really considering.. what the hell..

ok.. enough of all these depressing thoughts.. I went to see the ndp last week.. its not that fantastic but i like the fireworks.. and the demonstration by the SAF..















Hua and me.. hee.. this photo really looks like the one we took years ago when we were only 10 years old.. *i uploaded that a few months ago* really cute..hee..
















Have you seen a lion and giraffe kissing??














before that.. we went to a restaurant to eat.. *only becos the food not so ex*..
















My food.. hee.. Its not very good.. i didnt finish it.. haha..















Itadakimasu!!!!















So many pple la! and all in red..haha hua and I had to wait for around an hour before leaving for home.. and even so.. there were still so many pple.. the mrt was sooooooo packed..















The stage..















These pple.. or fishes.. are there to encourage the spectators to sing along, clap or what lo..















Here comes the parachutes..





















As usual.. but then.. this year is really cool.. they marched in from different entrance.. and before i noticed.. they already formed the words NDP 07..


















National flag..
















Nice.. * i mean the fireworks not the shiny baldy* haha














i didnt noe the police boat can move so fast..haha o.. and the commentator said that they will usually do this circling.. to trap the suspect.. so interesting..















This year they employ lots of lightings and water.. but i think its rather boring..haha the themes make no sense to me..haha basically i only like the fireworks..

That's it.. didnt take the fireworks.. cos i use videocam on my phone.. nice..hee..

So stressed up..
Sunday, August 05, 2007

Haiz.. another week gone.. finally got my pay.. was so going to starve to death already..haha anyway.. i didnt really realised how stressed i am until now.. mmm.. lets see.. first.. i'm already ultra stressed up with my piano cos no matter how much i prac.. i jus cant improve.. even worse.. i have been going down the hill.. sianz.. my teacher told me he has nv hear me play so lousy before.. haiz.. and as usual.. i jus go on trying my best.. never really realised that i was stressed up until i cried.. well.. last mon.. while i was having dinner.. halfway through i discovered that i have a red swollen thing on my lips AGAIN.. then this time its not one but TWO.. TWO!!! one on each side.. SIANZ.. immediately, i lost all appetite.. my mum was like.. are u allergic to anything?? is it the prawns? or the mushrooms?? and then i was so upset.. cos u noe la.. i;m very vain ma.. then my stupid face like that.. then i was so fed up.. i thought.. "dont eat la! eat what also cant.. stupid mouth" so i didnt finish even half of my dinner.. and my mum was so kind to jus finish it for me.. she didnt even nag at me.. *that's jus how sweet my mum is*..

So ya... tues is my piano lesson day.. so the following tues i was really sianz.. SIANZ.. as usual.. i still show no improvement.. i jus cant seem to play it the way my teacher wans it to be.. and worse still.. i realised that i cant play some parts which i used to be able to.. i dunno what the hell is wrong with me.. very sianz la.. what's the point of practising if the more i do the worse i get?? my teacher suggested that i may be too stressed up with work.. or the work environment is affecting me.. cos when i was stduying.. no matter how seldom i prac.. my standard was still there.. haiz.. what the hell.. then after lesson i went to meet hua.. and went to her house to put my bag.. I wasnt feeling stress.. i mean at least not as much as i thought i was until i started crying.. yes hua.. if u realised *which i think u did* i was laughing and crying at the same time when i was playing some stupid game with hua and xiang.. i actually went crazy.. and started making the both of them guess what i was singing *while pretending to be tone-deaf*.. i guess i cried becos partly i'm really upset and stressed up.. partly i was glad and happy to have hua with me.. *ya.. hua.. now u noe how impt u are to me.. * Hua is the only one *plus xiang too* who sits down and listen to me nw.. I know u are always there for me.. i can FEEL it..haha

I know i have really been eating alot nowadays.. but then come to think of it.. i think its becos whenever i have time.. i wanna meet hua.. and the only thing we can do at the time is eat.. and i guess its a form of relaxation to sit down, enjoy food and talk to hua.. *she ALWAYS cheer me up*.. and then at least for those few hours.. i can forget everything and enjoy myself.. o ya.,. hua.. noe u will be reading this..haha but.. dun get all shocked or suddenly extra careful with me..hahaha jus be normal..haha its the best u can do for me..hahaha anyway.. my mum is really wonderful too.. i think she actually knows i'm stress that's y she always come and fetch me from work whenever she can.. cook porridge for me when i'm sick or when i have no time or money to buy food.. even washes my clothes and sometimes utensils *which is supposed to be my job*.. pass me some money when i'm broke too.. no nagging, no complains..

Why the hell am i so emotion all of a sudden..... stupid me.. anyway.. something lighter.. had a performance in Cristofori last last wed.. here are the photos..





Playing the duet.. i was horrible..haha and my hair.. so messy. need a haircut asap man..













Group photo.. what's with my head..haha too heavy.. haha there's only one guy.. and he's korean.. KIMCHI!! haha o.. and AND.. he's MASTER degree.. he played a pretty difficult piece.. i thought it was ok.. UNTIL i was told that he was sight-reading it.. meaning he jus look at the score and play.. that jus shows how amazing he is.. i played that piece before.. and i prac so many weeks and i still cant get his standard of SIGHT-reading.. wth..



Ok.. let me share a funny story.. or rather it was not very funny for me then.. kns.. anyway.. i have a student.. who does NOT have any reactions.. does not speak, does not ans.. the first lesson she came.. she jus sits there..

Me: "what's ur name?? "
her: "....."
Me: "how old are u?"
her: "......."
Me: "ok.. lets play the piano alright? see? this is a PIANO.. it has black and white keys.."
her: "............." plus looking on the floor...

So.. ya.. that went on for 15 min when i couldnt take it and so went out to look for her mother to sit in.. then her mother tried to get some rxn..

Mother: "teacher ask u which is ur right hand.. so which is ur right hand??"
Her: "....."
Mother: " this is ur right hand rite?? come.. put it on the piano like mummy.."
Her: "........."
then her mother's hp rang.. "hello? u come see ur daughter la.. no rxn!"
then here comes the father.. hahha and it was the same.. so in total.. 30min of silent lesson.. nothing done..hahahaa

2nd lesson also NO RXN.. only hand signals.. but its really tiring cos one qns i have to ask 10 times..kns... and after 30min still nothing learnt....

3rd lesson.. before the lesson.. her mother told her.. "ok.. today u listen and ans teacher and i will buy u this sticker".. and she nods her head.. then her mum ask her to take her bag and go to the studio.. guess what.. she started DRAGGING her feets.. literally DRAG.. u noe? ZOMBIE DRAG??

Mother: "dun drag ur feet!"
her: still dragging.....

then moment she reached the studio.. she left her bag on the FLOOR.. Right where the door is.. cant even close the door..

Me: "pick up ur bag.. u throw it here.. how am i going to close the door???"
her: SLOWLY picked the bag up..

And so we continue with our lesson.. and she had SOME response.. some whispers.. then after 5 min.. she lost concentration.. REFUSED to ans me qns.. ask her 100 times.. no response.. started playing with her jacket.. and here comes the best part..
SHE STARTED DIGGING HER NOSE
great... how nice.. i tried to pretend i didnt see it.. but she wouldnt stop.. and i jus cant imagine myself playing on the piano after she plays it.. kns.. so i had to go out and get tissue.. then give it to her..

Me: "come.. wipe ur hand"
her: "..." POKE the tissue.. *that's her way of wiping..*
ME: *disgusted* try to ignore again.. "ok.. come.. tell me where is C again?"
her: "........" started banging the piano, press the pedals, scratch the wood....
AND she starts digging her nose AGAIN.. then i looked at her..

Me: "look at me.. come.. look at me.. do u wan to play the piano??"
her: ".........................................." nods....
Me: "so why dun u play it?? am i very fierce?? the piano is waiting for u to play it u noe..."
her: "........................................................"
AND her mucus starts to come out of her nose.. GREAT... so i thought.. FINE.. i will be a kind person for once.. wipe her nose and hands very clean for her..
ME: "stop touching ur nose.."
THEn she used THE OTHER HAND.. GREATTTT!! damn irritated.. then she pull out one solid mucus.. and went "Eeeeeeeeeee".. and i tell her to wipe it! and she poke the damn tissue again as if the mucus will jus stick on the tissue. kns..

It was a really horrible lesson..
