Fresh air cum soft, soothing music playing at the background is sure an ideal morning.

Was recalling the "Ballade Pour Adeline" song which i played and that was when sthg wonderful happened.CW caught me in action and luv it alot.I surely miss CW.~Thanks for everything that you hav done for me and hopefully, we will meet again.~

The other song which i played and caught the attention of a teacher during JC was titanic and Mask of Zorro.
Other than that, my most fav song for now is Johann Strauss's Blue Danube and Pachebel 's cannon.
Still trying to master a few other songs, when i am back home.

So far , here in singapore, i only admire Prem's piano skills .Other than him, no one has as good skills as his.Apparently, his parents are piaonists and of course, are very strict wif him practising his scales.So, at least both of us hav a common thing, which is playing scales for warming up.

Recalled the days of strict piano practices during my younger days.Tried to cheat on playing scales but got caught by mum, so in the end to punish me, i had to replay everything.

I guessed the best present i gave my mum despite my wilfulness was being the top best young Bastien Pianist in m'sia when i was 10 yrs old.The trophy was great but the best part for me was to perform on stage wif all the best piaonist around.Still remembered during the first few rounds of the competition, i vomitted before my performance.Scared the wits out of my parents totally!!
And, yeah, besides that, the passing of grade 8 during primary 5 was another special present for my mum.
But i never pursue in music animore, and my mum thought it was a waste.At least my sis did... haha...so one of her efforts is still flourishing.

For my dear bro, kevin, haha, mum is very lax wif him as he is guy.But, he also has piano fingers and is fast in learning it.
So hopefully, he can achieve the record that my mum set for him.Nway, i think he is abit pitiful at times, as he needs to meet the target which me and my sis set subtly for him.

All these achievements are of course to GOD, and my parents' credit(though they were thinking of giving up on me initially).Yeah, like giving a speech after receiving a OSCAR reward.But, was reflecting that i should realli give thanks and be grateful , just as a reminder for myself.
