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.
