i wish a happy new year, i wish you chinese new year, i wish you a happy new year and get many hong bao!
sing it in (we wish you a merry christmas) tune.
ok i just made that up all of a sudden. it's was as we know. super lame and crappy.
So it was chiense new year,or rather it still is, but this year. or rather the recent years it's getting more and more boring.Stay at house for the whole 3 days(including eve), stare at people, wait for hong bao, go back room, play com, dont dare flute. not gonna AA.
Hmm. i wonder how's samurai gonna sound like, can't wait to hear it being played.
Been rather lazy, ahh. damn. now now, that wouldn't help me alot in the future isn't it. And look at what the hell am i doing now. wasting time.
It's an amazing thing you know? as in, you know what's right or rather what you should be doing but you( i mean we, or most of us) has the ability to ignore it and continue doing what we SHOULDN'T be doing -.-" Isn't that interesting. lol, ok i guess not. half the people who read this will go '-_- clement.. you left me speechless'... as for the other half.. i donno. *fill in the blank yourself*
Hope i get in. New York is so gonna be exciting. February, March then April eh. oh well. that's all for now folks

I practice 4 hours in school, and i almost died. but guess what? It ain't enough.
DEFINITELY not enough to get me into juliard. yah. i can dream my whole life and i still don't get in,neither will i be able to get into RAM, RCM or paris conservatoire.
i doubt 4 hours will really get me anywhere. ahh...
the feeling of playing flute with a sore throat ain't nice, oh well, at least with medication it's gonna be better soon i guess..
The feeling's really bad, why? the amount of input is not the same as the amount of output produced.. then again, could it be i was using the wrong method?argh...
so there's CPE Bach, JC Bach and WF bach. hmm WF.. haven't heard that one for a long time..
SO 4 HOURS, IS DEFINITELY NOT ENOUGH, I'M OFF TO PRAC MORE, DAMNIT.

THIS IS FREAKING DAMN COOL!!!!!
OK EVEN IF YOU DON'T LIKE/HAVE NO INTEREST IN CLASSICAL MUSIC, JUST CLICK AND TAKE A LOOK AND LISTEN TO THIS, YOU WON'T DIE!!!!!!!!!! this is just so coool. unbelievable. astonishing i say. hahaha
Me being me, having things in mind and not posting out after a couple of days = forgot what i wanted to wrote. lol. oh well.
Just when you thought you never have to read that again.. . . . . . .
AND SUDDENLY 'WITH HEART AND VOICE' CAME STRAIGHT AT YOU AND SAY ' TOO BAD BOY, YOU GOTTA PLAY ME AGAIN WITH ANOTHER BAND MUAHAHAHA!'
and so sadly, i have to play with heart and voice again -_-, after teaching not enough, now gotta perform the piece. wth man =.= . and that first piece of the day was just sooooo awesomely cool haha. Leos Janacek's Sinfonietta. insanely interesting piece. Tell me if you have the recording and do send me eh~ hahahaha.
But overall, today(or rather, yesterday) was another insane today. here's my timetable for the day.
0830 wake up 1100-1300 Orchestra 1400-1600 Band 1600-1730 Singapore Arts Scene(FASHION! OMG!freaking hard -.-) 1820-1915 Principal Study(aka flute lesson!) 2015-2200 Orients(i hope i got the name right T_T, basically swo woodwind quintet) practice
tiring day~ oh well, should have arranged my stuffs properly and after that was home and do work till 0150 of 13th jan? hur hur hur. interesting life i got~.
To ensure one's standard mantain, one gotta keep practicing. By ensuring that practice has been done does not ensure one's standard raised. That is something important i learnt.
Homeworks are never things that students like to do, unless you're somewhat a workaholic i suppose =X.
question: what would happen if musical terms are used for singapore arts scene(fashion)'s assignement? e.g this kind of clothing could be found during the BAROQUE PERIOD, the colour was CRESENDO-ing and if you observe the waves on the shirt, it should signs of RITENUTO and ACCELERANDO.
LOL!
and i was told mozart has a fetish for poo. hmmm, time for consulting doctor kan. hahahaha...
school's life starting again, time to 收心了阿不然就完蛋了,真是的。 the end.

yo people, it's the 2nd day of 2009 and i guess i was 1 day late wishing everyone happy new year! *not that it really matters to anyone i guess*
oh well, new year sure was boring. but what to do~ never mind, let's just hope that the year gets better, and so they say a new year ,a brand new beginning( OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT).
Been playing half-life, yes i know it's an old school game or it's pretty outdated but hey it's fun killing monsters and tooting my flute as usual at the wrong timings, i should swoop the times of how i do things you know. like flute in the afternoon then play game at night. but that just doesn't appeal to me. lol.
oh well, happy new year. may your wishes come true and whatever there is you wanna add in, fill in yourself! tadah. 3.33am
