Tempted by Joey? Can say so la. haha.
Today (Tues), I practically spent the entire day on the piano.
Hahaha I might do the same tomorrow (Wed).
Yamaha pianos are the best, mine's Hyundai and it sucks.
I want to watch
1) DOA
2) Step Up
3) (Happy Feet)
4) (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix omg i can't frigging wait for this one)
5) (The Da Vinci Code)
but then I'm too lazy to see who hasn't caught them (1, 2) yet.
Okay you may stop reading because the next part is sure to bore you.
Uhm, that's if anyone's even reading.
My current obsession...
BAROQUE and CLASSICAL MUSIC.
Especially piano sonatas and symphonies by some composers.
(concertos are not bad.)
I have no idea why.
Haha. I think this keeps me away from too much thinking?
Yupps.
My piano teacher's doing scales with me,
and some other pieces which I don't really like.
Julia's Piano Solo is one example.
Some Final Fantasy song.
So, I experimented with the grade 8 pieces.
Might be playing Sonata in A minor, Kp. 175 by Scarlatti from the A list.
I wanted Prelude and Fugue in A flat, BWV 862 by Bach but the fugue part is too hard.
4 voices... I play 3 voices already half dead how to play 4. Lols.
Then for the B list,
I found the B:2 piece, Allegro: first movement from Sonata in E flat, Hob. XVI/52 by Haydn on youtube ---- played in a CONCERT can?!
[here, if there's anyone reading at all.]
It's part of a repetoire for some CONCERT and they put this as part of the syllabus??
WTH. 9 pages.
I'm trying out Mozart's Allegro: first movement from Sonata in F, K. 332.
Kinda got the first page right.
There's 7 pages but it's mostly repeats and variations.
All the pieces from the C list look totally alien to me so I'm leaving that out first.
Though Alberga's If The Silver Bird could speak looks interesting.
One question...
For those who have completed their grade 8, are they moving on to do diploma?
Like Ethel XY Fio Charm PQ Dezzie.
And one request.
Someone define 'friend' for me please.

Today, we express hope as if we can’t be sure what will really happen. We say, “I hope I’ll win that prize… I hope it won’t rain tomorrow… I hope everything works out well...” But “hope” in the Bible is a confident and positive expectation of good. This is because as His child, your heavenly Father favours you. Because Christ is in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27), you can expect the glory of God to shine into every area of your life, including your family, job, ministry, health and finances! God’s Word says, “Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” My friend, you may have experienced disappointed hopes, but there is a hope that does not disappoint when you are conscious of how much God loves you. It is a hope that springs from the heart of God, who loves you very much. It is interesting that the first mention of the Holy Spirit in the book of Romans is tied up with the love of God. Now, the book of Romans is considered foundational for all Christians. Could it be that the first thing the Holy Spirit wants to do is to establish in your heart that God loves you? Many people think that the Holy Spirit has come to teach us about power, but the truth is that the Holy Spirit has come not to reveal the love for power, but the power of love! My friend, you may have just lost your job, but if you believe that “Jesus loves me this I know”, you can say, “I believe I will get a better job tomorrow.” Your girlfriend may have just left you for your best friend, but because “Jesus loves me this I know”, you can say, “I’ll meet a better girl tomorrow.” When you believe that God loves you, you will have a positive expectation of good. You will have hope that does not disappoint, so be careful what you hope for because you are bound to get it! |
