blogged
im surprised that im actually blogging twice in two days ;D maybe u feel like blogging more when ur in a gd mood. hmm.
sightread brahms during YO today.
disastrous. the 4th movement is. s.l.o.w. i dont like brahms -.-
the bartered bride feels more fun now that its faster.
cant believe we are gna shift on next saturday. haha went to look at the house when i came back...hopefully more work will be done by the time we shift in. cause its really gna be so inconvenient with the house still under work ):
cca is gna stop for 2 weeks. YO is having exam break too. for the next 2 weeks, its gna be absolutely relaxed. maybe not absolutely, relatively.
kim posted some unglam pics on her blog! but nvm there was one nice pic of half the vln ones section. we should have our section lunch sooner ;D i suddenly miss my section. hoho. post-syf syndrome.
me and my sis actually finished half a tin of ben and jerry's ice cream just now. HAHA. fourth tin finished in my family within erm..1 1/2 weeks i guess. i really shd abstain from ice cream..i ate ice cream five different times for the past 1 month. ahh abstain abstain -.- but island cremery looks tempting -.-
just realised recently that without music, my life wouldn't be half as interesting or busy as it is now. its amusing how i used to hate music and loved dance. i still rmb the times in pri sch, i loved and enjoyed dance so much. to me it was a form of expression as well. really missed those times. i would be neglecting my violin so much that i didnt even bother to practice unless i have lessons. my mum would be naggng and scolding me for not practising. and honestly, i really didnt like violin at that time.
sec sch really changed everything. everything was switched around. at first i wanted to join dance so much, but my mum didnt allow. well maybe not everything changed. cause i still miss dance nowadays. looking at dances made me think of the times when i could really dance freely and i really miss it a lot.
but on the other hand, if my mum didnt make me join strings, so many things would have been missing from my life. i wldnt have gone for syf in sec1, wldnt have known how did getting gwh feel like. wldnt have known what was ensemble music, wldnt have learnt ensemble skills, most importantly wldnt have got interested in music. i wldnt have felt how gd it was to play in an ensemble, with others. wldnt have learnt as a cm, wldnt have felt the stress, the worry, and the joy of the second gwh, wldnt have enjoyed having such a great section (: also, i wldnt have known so many others ;) really grateful for that. i wldnt have gone for YO auditions, wldnt have got into it, wldnt have enjoyed it like i am now. i wldnt have known how it was like to be a member of an orchestra. i probably wont even continue with my grd 8 exams. maybe not even grd 7.
its hard to imagine my life now without all these and i wldnt want to. its strange how some things can change so much in 3 years. comparing the times when my mum had to nag at me to just pick up my vln..and now when i practise too much until my mum scolds. haha. well sometimes im just fooling around with new nice pieces for the feel of it. not really practising it seriously. but yeah, u get the point. and yes, i wouldnt have listened to classical music at all in the past. HAHA. weird huh, what a big big big difference three years can make.
but im really really glad these changes took place. cause it really gave me interest in music, sth that i wld never wna miss out on. most importantly, joing nyse (: the experience, the fun, the sadness, the relief, the joy, everything (:
changes do weird things (: but the weird things are so enjoyable (:
