Violin mock exam (grade 7)
argh every component make mistake
i tell myself it doesn't matter cos it's just a mock exam
like whatever
A1-Presto
Argh! this song! how could I make a mistake???
I guess I was too nervous
I missed out one whole part cos i forgot to come in
and i couldn't come in in between cos i don't
usually make a mistake there
and I'm not very familiar with the piano on its own
forget it you won't understand
B1-Adoration
I performed this song when I was like, 10? 11?
so i chose this song opposed to Hungarian Dance
Eeks
Seriously? I'm bored of this song
but I have to practice cos, well,
its my exam song
i think this song was okay,
but some parts a little off
C3-Woogie Boogie
Eeks I kinda love-hate this song
It sounds wierd
but it's kinda nice with piano
argh i can't play jazz for nuts
Scales
Pian pian have to come out D major!
you know how high high high high D is?
man oh yah the last note for Adoration is high high high D
3 tied semi breves with fermata.
Ab major or something like that
thank God that came out
it may look difficult but actually all you have to do is
try it without looking cos when you look you get confused by
all the flats and double flats and naturals
well, in other words, accidentals
i kinda like it, somehow
i hope it makes up for at least one mistake
Arpeggios
B major
man i hate B major
the first D have to stretch like siao
why must come out this
but actually arpeggios are fun
you get to slide and jump or whatever
D major AGAIN!
ARGH I HATE D MAJOR!!!
my thumb have to stretch like siao
lol you say violin where got use thumb
to hold my hand there lah
haiyah very hard to explain
its like, ARGH i don't know how to explain
Chromatic scales
Starting on D
D!!!D!!!D!!!
okay lah but then when i shift the Ab and the B
sound the same
Starting on Ab i think
can't remember
can't remember anything
Dominant sevenths
Starting on G
a last a G
you probably thought G was non-existent
it's fine
i kinda like dominant sevenths :]
Starting on B
that's why i like dominant sevenths
cos B and D only 2 octaves
hahaha I'm nefarious
lazy more like
Diminished sevenths
can't really remember but i think it was D again
ugh
sheesh
bleah
whatever
I can't remember the other one
Sight reading
It was quite easy, really
I think i did fine
gtg now update next time

Church camp very long ago. It was somewhere around Parents' Day. The kids had a separate service. sorta. not really a service. more like...a rehearsal. They invited a clown and he blew balloons and made balloon sculptures. they were fascinated. They choreographed a sorta sing-and-dance thing for the parents. I remember I was somewhere at the end of the row, so I went in first but that is of no significant significance. I wasn't very enthusiastic about performing. I was the only one who didn't dance. I took a photo with my B.F.F.s ;D
Guess which I am. It would be quite obvious if you zoomed in cos my name is there. lol.
I was the quiet one. That's me. In an environment where only the talkative survive, I've survived, but barely. It's sorta better at church than in school, cos somehow I feel high in church but I'm emo in school. Face it, I'm a loner.
long time no see thought i mati?

heyys
haven't posted for a long time
thanks for the birthday wishes ;D
this last week was hectic
went for IGNYTION
monday and tuesday and wednesday wake up 0630
wednesday SP course and IGNYTION clashed so
I went for SP course
I made new friends Lester, Rachel, Daniel, Nicholas
I saw Popular boy there
he's developed this new craze for chicken pie
still
he pretty much ignores me
we were in the same group
he says my name nice
it was fun
had lunch with Rachel, Daniel and Nicholas
Fred was emoing and he gave me a packet of Famous Amos
and said happy birthday but i didn't know whether it was for me or not
in the end i gave it to nicholas
who i guess it was really meant for
after SP course Jared, Joshua and Josiah and I
made our way to PL to catch the last part of Jamboree
part of IGNYTION
we wanted to play some of the games but by the time we reached
it was too late
Josiah went home cos he tt too late liao
when 3 of us entered we saw some people preparing for some event and
i actually forgot that other than my birthday it was also P. Thomas and auntie Rachel's
silver anniversary and when they said wow what's that i said some wedding? lol
but we still helped out and had a good time there
i met Josiah's contact (from street evangelism) Meifeng
too bad Josiah wasn't there
she's in band too ;D
3 of us (Shiwah, Joyce and I) fussed over her lol
but i think she's quite extroverted so that's okay cos
if she were introverted she be really traumatised
Asaph and I had to go back early to take care of my younger bro Peter cos
my parents were going to P. Thomas' silver anniversary!
lol can't believe i didn't remember that
my mom said the gymnasts were there
P. Thomas' goddaughters
man i wish i were there
i'd want an autograph
lol
My parents gave me a lecture cos I realised i couldn't go to violin lesson on time
cos it's at adam road and they just talk and talk and talk and lecture lecture lecture
and after that i emo-ed cos they're always "right" and they don't ever stop to listen whether
I may be right
just for once
I might know what's best for me
"politically correct", i call it
correct by default
supposedly correct
but not definitely
but i'm always politically incorrect
wrong by default
supposedly wrong
why can't i be right for once?
on thursday I couldn't go to SP class
don't ask why
so I went to PL and helped wrap presents
for Parents' Day
sweet irony
my parents don't let me go to SP class and I'm
wrapping presents for them
but hey, i got free lunch
I met Chris[cheong] there
we calculated that in total 1512 presents were wrapped
cool
he said if you're not mixed blood you
can't be good looking
ell oh ell
so he's implying he's good looking lol
he said usually you buy presents first then you wrap
but he wrap presents then buy
lol
I had band today
ming li asked who our chinese teachers were and said
die liao
my teacher is the slackiest
he talks about geylang all the time
and puts his hand at his pits
ming li ate potato chips in front of him once and i
did the chicken dance in front of him
the slacker
salad chicken rice is nice

I'm going to Malaysia tomorrow. I'm going to miss d&d :((( I don't like going to Malaysia. I feel diaphanous there. They critisise me about my fashion sense, which in their opinion should be Malaysian. Then when we go visiting my cousins leave me alone and go play with their friends. They speak Chinese. I don't. What a tragedy. I have to miss d&d for something I don't like. I guess I'm TPFW (Too Pathetic For Words).

I feel happy :D Jo said I did a great job for the script :DD
The lift upgrades are getting noisy. They're knocking down the parapets. They're at level 7 now.
I saw an obituary for Pastor Ee Lin's godma Pastor May Ling. My mom said she used to be in charge of Chinese Min. They're thinking of going to the funeral tonight.
Worship Team Kids are thinking of going to watch Prince Caspian on 21st and go ice skating before or after that ;DDD We're gonna have lots of fun ;DDDD

I'm doing the script for Project 678, as Bro Kah Fei likes to call it. Zhihe, Jo and Sara are busy so I have to do it. I've done Act 1a so far. I hope it's good. I have a headache. I just want to close my eyes and listen to the music. Chatting with Hannah Mama. Miss her. I joined d&d just when she left. tragic.D:
Life goes on, we cannot wait for others, don't mention ask others to wait for us. Time and tide waits for no man. life goes on. when our friends leave we must move on, however hard it may be, because if you don't you lose out in the end.
Hannah Oen, you'll always be my mama.

I'm listening to First Love Piano Version so nice. ;D. I wish I could play like that. My piano is de-proving but one day i will perfect Secret and Ignited Piano Version and First Love Piano Version and Ballade Pour Adeline and Tidus and Yuna's Theme and To Zarnakand and Mariage d'Amour and the long forgotten Beauty and the Beast and Somewhere Out There. Come to think of it, that's gonna take some time. and I'll perfect Paganini's 2 Caprices #16 Presto and #12 Allegro. But after my exam. I shall Perfect my exam pieces A1 Presto B1 Adoration C3 Woogie Boogie. Not to mention my scales and arpeggios and dominant sevenths and diminished sevenths and sixths double stops and octaves. *sigh* that's a long list. I'll learn the guitar for My Immortal and Jesu, Joy of Man's Desire on Flute. That sure is a lot to accomplish this hols. I don't think I can do it. Well let's just see, shall we?
This hols is dedicated to music.
