Direction found

Wed was having dinner with Carmen , she asked any violin teacher  recommended . Then I recommended my violin teacher to her . She told me she is going to find another violin teacher , because her current teacher has a lot of problems . ( I think better not state out who and why) . Then we move the topic to her previous piano teacher and this topic involve myself as well .

I followed my piano teacher since the first day I went MIA . At first I really taught she is a very strict and good teacher , because everyone is calling her DR. Lok . I still remember the first lesson she asked me to play some scales and I play so serious , like I'm having class with DR . better don't mess up with her . 

Lesson by lesson , day by day . I found she is not that strict and able to joke around . For the  first semester I practice very hard . Starting from Sem 2 I found myself start to hate piano and love violin very much and that time still decided to change my violin into major . I hate piano is because I lost interest . For myself I also feel that I only learn dynamic and rhythm in my class . I had been in the mist . I don't know what a piano class should be . Is it really I only need to learn to play out the dynamics and rhythm in the class ? This question had followed me until last semester . The mist grew thicker and thicker until I really lost . At that time I still told myself go lesson and play only even though I learn nothing . Every time I feel sorry to myself when I stepped out from the door.

Until one day , I cannot stand with it . I contact Ms Yap which I decided to change after my recital . I asked weather she willing to take me as her student because I have my recital around the corner and my piece still not finish yet . I am so happy that she agree . But I still learning with Dr lok , because it is too impossible to told her I changed teacher at this time .

First gig

September . Has been freezing my blog for a couple of month . A quick update on August which I accomplished my diploma piano recital , Singapore competition and lastly Grade 7 violin exam successfully . Last month Eugene called me asking me weather can help out with his Erhu concert and I agreed , because I used to help him in the PP before .  Same member as before , only first violin we have a new member . They fixed the rehearsal in MIA every Monday and Friday , but I told Eugene I can only make it on Friday . So our first rehearsal went not bad . I'm happy for myself because I'm able to play the whole offbeat passage . It never happen before I decided to use it with metronome . See the power of metronome . So every Friday I travel until the performance day . The day before the performance we still have one last rehearsal which everyone promise to attend but cellist do not turn up so you can image everyone faces at that time . Because there is a offbeat passage which only...

Seventeen of May

Second day of my "sem break" . My friend bought me to a cafe that I longed very very long time ago . The reason why I love this cafe is because it is outdoor and I was attracted by its greenery and decoration . Batik almost made up most of the decoration of the cafe . The moment when we walk in , I expect the surrounding to be quite spacious but it doesn't look like what I expect . Before I know this cafe I saw it in Instagram . Here are the expectation and reality , but it doesn't disappointed me anyway . So we went to the counter and order . The boss introduce us what's on their menu today . From the conversation , we only get to know she study arts in  MIA before .  Their breakfast looks attractive . I choose so careful because breakfast used to be the first things before all my activities begin .   At the end of the day , I ordered a croissant with scramble eggs . We look for the for our seat because we are the first customer , so I can't decide where ...
