GAMBETTE!!!!
Been so busy that i have not updated so long. hahahh......
I have gotten back my piano ATCL Recital results ytd......
I failed badly. I knew i will fail la. but didnt know will fail so badly.
I am considering whether to continue taking till i pass and finish the whole piano course. Its really too a hefty amount for the exams. Can u imagine? $700 for 45 mins?????
On top of that, i still have to pay my piano lesson fee every month.
Y do i tink of giving up?
-My lesson is on a saturday.
-Every sat morning, i have to wake up early to go for my piano lesson - EUNOS!!! sometimes, i jux wanna slp a little longer, but i cant, cos my lesson is at 10am. n therefore i have to leave house at 915am. (every day already wake up so early at 6am to go to work)
-I have sch lessons on sat. After piano lesson, i will go straight to sch to meet dear kc for lunch and then off to lessons.
-If there are gatherings or projects to be done, due to my piano lesson, i wun be able to make it.
-I have already learnt so long and spent a lot of money on it... ( i guess my P&L will always be a loss)
HOWEVER, i asked dearest kc for opinion.... He encourages me to continue taking till i finish. cos left 2 more levels. How long will i take to finish everything? I AM NOT SURE.
He is rite that this can be my full time job in future if i am sick of accounts. haha..... With a good piano cert, it can fetch a higher market price. (LETS HOPE SO...) hehe...
Final decision: Continue and try....
this time round i will not go to the parkway parade to take the exam. i will change to go millenia walk. hahha.... my teacher is quite true. The parkway parade results always like shit. My teacher student took at millenia walk. and she got quite a good grade thou different level from me. (my teacher feels i am much better than her, she didnt expect her to get such good grade so she guess is the place of examination)... hmmmm.... i will take at millenia then( hope i will be able to get thru)...
Overall, the examiner gave me quite a gd comment.... there is musicality, emotions and stlye. HOWEVER, due to my stupid breakdowns, it compromises all these. FAINT.......
In the past, for other piano exams, i dun have as much breakdowns, but my musical feel not that good. passable only. NOW.... dunno y breakdowns so many, but musical feel improved a lot. (I guess there is really not perfection in this world) hehehe....
I will try again and hope to do it good.

reflections
Hihi......... Wah.... Long Long time since i last update. hehehe... many apologies....
Hmm.... Uploading pics is really a hassle. There are many many pics that are yet to be updated.
Eg. Bird Park, Genting, Doggy pics, Swiss National Day, Random pics. OH NO!!!! too many to be updated.
Ok. now lets not show pics first. Be prepared to read only WORDS!!!
That day was chatting with Evan on msn.... Not to sure why we talk bout our days when we were young.
Then some recollections and reflection came out of my mind.
When i was in the Primary Sch, I used to be v cheerful, v happy, n v talkative. Not too sure y i become quiet after that. I realise after my pri sch days, i have changed.......
In the past, i used to be v v lame in pri sch.... when i go to the dentist, they call me kai xin guo (Ginko in English - meaning a cheerful gal). However, this term has gone with the wind for many many years. I wonder, what has happened to me this "kai xin guo" ........ Where has she gone?????
Why am i not as happy as in the past? Is it due to age? As we grow older, we have more troubles and that is y i become not as happy as compared to the past.
Sometimes I wish to see someone - eg. my pri lover. hehehehehe.... BUT i guess it has been too long since Pri Sch that i have forgotten his look... Maybe he ever walk pass me, but i nvr recognise.... Ever since Pri Sch, i have nvr seen him b4... hehe (pls dun get me wrong, its jux hoping to see a long lost friend). heheheheh.... Wonder how he is doing now. hehehe
I really hope i can be the old me... Where is the Kai xin guo??? Are u still ard??? Pls COME BACK TO ME!!!! :))
