KL Trip May 2009

Ahhh, it’s been like, a month and 10+ days since I last updated. Lots of stuff happened since I updated, and erm, I’m not gonna say unnecesary things especially photo captions, unless it’s really important :).

Ok first I went through my piano exam, and this time, I’m gonna share it with all of you, as I believe maybe only 5% of people who read my blog attend music classes.

Ok so let’s talk about the Piano, or maybe piano lessons. It has really helped me a lot in being patient, being disciplined, being hardworking no matter how sucky the situation could be, being able to play the piano DUH especially in church and maybe being musical. Now that the days of attending piano lessons are over, I’m just SO HAPPY LOL. No more screaming at the piano when you get totally mad :D, although it was really fun to scream at the piano when nobody is at home. Those still taking music lessons, you could try it :).

Ok so I sat for my grade 8 piano exam on the 16th of June. Goodness. I was so nervous I had butterflies dying in my stomach ~_~. It was 100 times more nervous than sitting for the PMR examination (in your face, people who study like crazy and cry for your results!) Well maybe when I take the driving exam I would feel this way, ‘cause that exam might make me pay cash –___-, cash as in knocking their cars.

When I went in the examination room (in Grand Riverview Hotel), I was still very nervous, until I stammered and said ‘'G-g-good morning, Sir’’ until it sounded like ‘'’Morning Sir’’, kinda informal ~_~. Well at least I wasn’t like Vivien who just said ‘hello’ when the examiner said ‘hello’ ~_~.

Well, I had to prepare for 3 songs and play it on the day, and also memorise scales. There were also sight-reading where you have to play a song after looking at it for 30 seconds. Anyway I was like, having an itch in my nose, so I went ‘'Excuse me, sir’’. Wooh he was so friendly he said ‘'Ah, I feel the same too. It’s too cold here, isn’t it?’’ ‘'Oh yes, but I have sinusitis (doing sad face LOL)’’ Then guess what happened!? ‘

‘'Oh I see, you have sinusitis, and you have good English too!’’

I was like O_O. ‘'Thank you, heheh.’’ Well maybe he thought that I can speak good English since I mentioned the word ‘sinusitis’ zz.

Well throughout all the songs I had to play, I stumbled and slipped kinda a lot, and for the sight-reading I forgot to play according to the loud and soft signs, and I sang wrongly during the Aural part. I was finishing when I suddenly jerked and went out of tune T__T.

Piano lessons are over anyway :). But I won’t forget the days I got scolded, the days I played reluctantly and didn’t wanna care for anything else, the days I practised in the eleventh hour and grumbled a lot to my parents, the day I screamed at the piano LOL.

Even worse, when I came back from Italy, I was like, ‘'hey teacher, I bought chocolates for you, but I forgot to bring them.’’ I’M SUCH A GOOD STUDENT RIGHT!? Nope. I forgot to bring the chocolates the 2nd and 3rd week, and guess what? All the chocolates were gone :D.

Anyway, all these years of learning piano were really worthwhile despite the amount of money spent, so thanks to my parents for that ~_~.

Ok done with the piano stuff, now I’m gonna show pics of my KL trip last month. :D. Enjoy! Only some photos have captions though.

this is THE U.F.O, from the Taiwan Dessert Shop. It’s REALLY near Taylor’s and the desserts there ROCK. They were so delicious! But didn’t bring camera down so didn’t take photos. Zz.

Anyway the UFO works as a beeper. When your dessert is ready, the UFO will beep and vibrate like mad. Then you can go collect your good good good dessert.
