vocal music

before I begin, i refer to classical music when I say vocal, not pop music. anyhows, I used to remember the times when I absolutely hated vocal music esp if it involved a solo singer or the standard SATB soloists... but I'm recent times I find myself listening to more of these pieces. and ohh never knew asians could sing opera well...><" I was so shocked to watch beethoven's symphony 9 being sung in Japan by 4 Japanese people xD like their voices easily be mistaken as a Europeans' which I initially thought it was....yhh anyway, my music studies seem to be taking me to different places I would have never explored which I guess is a good thing but also means I now have 15gb of music =D

piano exam

zomg...i have less than a week until piano exam and i feel like crap...so unprepared and unmotivated.  ><" and i have the same examiner as i got for grade 7 meaning my chances of failing are even higher ><" and omg...i'm so screwed ><" fuuuuuuuuuuu =( i really hate piano exams =( bahh watch me fail =( bye~

Grand Piano D=

I. Want. A. GRAND. PIANO.

I actually have a very specific criteria in mind too =) must be white (preferably vintage white), has to be a fukll concert grand (the longer the better), must not be a kawaii, must either be a japanese yamaha or a european maker, must have digital playback (yes where the piano can play the keys on its own and record what you play and play that back too), must have beautiful golden wheels (baulko music would know how un-sexy the (not so) new wheels + retarded frame looks on our grand). ohh, and must have a awesomely perfect resonance chamber/soundbox such that if you hum into the soundbox, it will sustain your note for a few seconds =D

hehehe...high demands i have made xD one day, i shall find this piano =) though ofc after i move into a new house (which i hope will be soooon) =)

nooo...

well, looks like my holidays have come to an abrupt end...and tomoro marks the start of year twelve (even though we're still on the yr 11 timetable for now) and i seem very prepared for the oncoming year..not. well tbh, i have spent much of these holidays just being lazy with the comfort that this is essentially the only set of holidays i will spend not studying in some way or another. but i tried to study mainly physics and some english..and tried to do some music but really only got to brainstorm small ideas on my whiteboard which doesnt exactly work =/ so i'm screwed... anyhows, like i have quite a year ahead especially when so many of my yearly marks are bordering bogan fail... so really i'm dreading going back to school cos i think the first thing we'll do is look at our yearlies ><" so i'm f**cked and arrghhh, just want to burn that yearly report =D

anyhows, i shall prolly not post very often as of now, unless i get bored on some bus ride or something and post from my phone =) but yes, you'll have to wait patiently to read another rambling post from me...

so long for now~

phone blogging

sit seems that phone blogging is quite fail and annoying...so much that it managed to post my last post three times, once a minute over three minutes =.=" oh wel, as most people know, i havnt actually sat at my home laptop and used it for the majority of these holidays nor have i been on facebook and i dont have a craving to go on either =) anyhows, these holidays have been rather nice with a few outings here and there, namely city, parra park, parra, eastwood, carlingford yhh and mixed with some study but i think it leans towards the fun side more xD mainly because i am taking advantage of my last unstressful holiday for a long long year to come (which really will go by pretty quickly which i am kind of dreading) oh wells, time to go study some english and finish english tutor homework which kinda never happened at Joanna's but was supposed to...yhh

ciao~

learning to read

so it seems my mind has too gone into holiday mode and hence my absence of blogging x)

anyhows, I've been chatting a lot with one of my cousins a lot lately and in these convos I seem to learn a lot of stuff, some useful and some just completely trivial...one of which is to read people =) and I guess its boot really something that valuable but over time it has come to great use and amusement being able to interpret people by their actions and whatnots. whilst intriguing at times, I must say the great thing I've gained from this isnt the ability to read (most) people but the fact that it can work in reverse to conceal myself without giving things away. But ofc all great things always have their downside...so I think I shall stop hiding so much at home since I am a person who tends to hold in negativity like anger, pain and sorrow until I violently blow up in vulgar language and destructiveness. not really a side most people see =) and I think I'm ranting about myself again so I'll stop. how selfish of me! laters.
