First thing first..... calm down JL. Do not go into panic attack tomorrow when taking back your Auth assg.
Depressing matters aside, I went for an Honours presentation by a super witty friend of mind, ANDREA. Twilight. Hmm, vampire films and stuff. Intertextuality and pastiche. I believe 20 mins is too short a time :( But at least they gave you the opportunity to step into another milestone of academic life. Heh.
There's another girl before her but her one feels more complex than my friend's but nonetheless... hats off to you for having so much confidence during delivery.
As for me.... I'm in my final year already. OMG! I still remember one of my Aussie lecs saying. Hello, welcome to COMXXXX. You will see me again in XXXX and XXXX in your third year if you're doing COMM.
And HERE I AM NOW SOLDIERING as a third-year, doing BOTH his stimulating yet dry subjects. Meh, I don't think I need to explain. You know how subjects are at my uni.
Here's to hoping that I do OKAY for this sem and next sem.
Okay, dry stuff aside....
Went to lepak at Starbucks for the second time in what? my entire life this sem? HAHAHA. Well, I wouldn't have gone if the cafe food wasn't so bland. Oh, yeah. Uhm I went mostly for the free drink upon registration of the Starbucks card. Starbucks card works on reload, btw.
Free drink. Siapa tak nak????
LOL
Then in the midst of chatting and drinking with my other friend, saw another friend. Xtina. Hehe. Dia pun bosanlah, agaknya.
Shifted places so we could chat with her just for the sake of killing boredom XD
And close to 3pm, D came and kacau. Haha. Was going off for class alrdy so he could steal Tina. :P
Upon leaving, D said to me: Eh, y'know, you're awesome-lah.
Me: Huh? *seriously*?
D: you do ballet ah? Do you do professionally????
Me: :) hahaha, no-lah. For exercise... :D :D
D: Eh, you like music also right? You play *the black and white keys* also right????
Me: Yeah. What's so awesome, wor? *Is that so awesome*?
D to Xtina: (referring to me) Eh, this gal so high class punya, you know.
Xtina: Haha, yeah! :D
Me: Hahahaha, THANKS!!!!!!!
That was totally random. First met D in college. But I was never close at all! Then came UNI, oklah, altho never that close yet. Then same class a few times but coz he's never really around in class... so... Then, today, all of a sudden, he can come and tell me that I'm AWESOME.
Eh, you know how much I had to go through to be this *AWESOME* or not?????
First enrolled in electone with no idea whether I'd like it or not . But mainly for improved coordi.
First few basic classes at 6 years old was okay. But as time went by, I started hating it, dreading to go to class because I had a teacher who's A PERFECTIONIST. Really. Torture. I mean, if I didn't practice it was because I had schoolwork :( And IF I didn't sing loud enough, it was because I didn't want to sing the wrong notes :(
For all I know you reprimanded all of us in group class that I think at one point, I got fed up. Of course, we had our concert. Outfit all nice... Yeah, you think so??? Meh... good exposure, I know but then....
Then I dunno why PIANO came into the picture. So I had another instrument added into the equation.
I realised that I could not handle BOTH at the same time. ALWAYS went to PIANO class CRYING because I didn't do HOMEWORK for ELECTONE/ORGAN class. Did I have to let the other teacher know???? I think she found out.... way later....
But, my PIANO teacher wasn't all that nice either despite her giving me CUTE stickers after each class. She was another person who PUSHED me, too. If I remember one thing she said, it's that I was one of her worse students because I sucked at CONTRARY MOTION. I can't rmb if she sent me out for not performing well enough, but nevermind.... you taught me, nonetheless.
In the end, her other commitments kept her busy & made me meet another teacher. WOOT!!!! I was happy because she was a PLEASANT lady who thought my best friend, too :) :) HAHA.
Unfortunately, life had better plans for me so I bade goodbye to her. :( So sad but yeah... what to do, right?
So met this lady who was a recomendation of my nice teacher.... OMG, seriously, she's funny and all but :(
And then, time came when I could tell I wasn't SERIOUSLY practising anymore. No time. Horrible fingering. Pathetic timing. Theories that were too hard to comprehend. Impatience.
ENOUGH!!! ENOUGH!!!
Now? I'm happily playing on my own without anyone shouting at me whenever my stupid fingers decide to defy me. Nobody to kill me IF I don't use the pedal the correct way.
THIS IS HOW I GOT TO BE THE AWESOME THAT I AM TODAY.
Sigh, like anyone's gonna read this.
I NEED to get back to my assignments!!!
CCP, I'm coming!!!
