Don't tell me that we will never be together.
Many things I need to say today. Well, insignificant to you but rather significant to me! :O

There are many things I really hate (Be it people or situations)

1. Kids who act as if they're damn smart and quarrel over really trivial matter.

When I say trivial, I really mean trivial stuff like cutting queue when doing our routines. D'you know why I hate kids? I was once a kid which is why I'm convinced I hate kids. I hate that phase from like kindergarten till p6. These are the times whereby kids are at their most irritating and dislikeable age. Like totally. Well, as in most kids. Some kids are like really nice but most of the kids I've met are either bossy, arrogant, act smart and so on.

Bossy kids.
Kids that can't do their own stuff well and go around telling their fellow friends what to do and they act as if they're the big boss and they've got the right to tell people what to do and everything that they do is so damn right. But no, they're just an irritating bunch of kids. One of the worse breeds ever.

Arrogant kids.
Those who always show off what they've got and what they can do. It's no doubt, they have a certain something (Be it item or skill) but they will make a lot of noise when others want to compete with them as well. Irritating much, but still quite acceptable.

Act Smart kids.
Probably the worse of all kinds. Think they're damn smart, do things a certain way, in the end, all they get is just a lashing. Always commenting on topics that they don't really understand and in the end, they only make a fool out of themselves. Disgusting.


2. People who have high expectations of people and don't seem to understand their ability.

Have always been ranting on the topic about myself not being able to cope with maths. And my mum just came up with the most ridiculous thing today.

She said,

1) I should try for Grade 7 Theory next March (Or better still, this November)
2) I can try for Diploma at the end of next year.

I was so agitated when I replied her! I was like,"SYF IS LIKE MARCH NEXT YEAR! I WILL BE SO GODAMNIT BUSY AND HOW D'YOU EXPECT ME TO CONCENTRATE ON TWO IMPORTANT STUFF AND ONE TIME? D'YOU WANT ME TO DIE!?!?!?!"
And the Diploma thing, I just brushed her off and said it's impossible. Will take it like in 2010.

Ok, this is still ok, at least it doesn't bugs me as much as Maths does.


Well, I've got really good news!

I PASSED GREAT 8 PRACTICAL!!

Woohoo! -runs around and laughs happily!

HAHAHAHAHA!!! YAY, AFTER FAILING IT LAST YEAR, I FINALLY DID IT!

At first, I was so nervous, and then I was like staring at it, and it says,"CERTIFICATES. Please do not bend."

So obviously, I've secured a pass! And I opened it and yes!

104/150!

Though it's like really sucky, since I only passed by 4 miserable marks but at least I can move on to Diploma! Yay! I'm so excited about Diploma. Playing really crazy high difficulty song and being able to choose pieces that I want!

I was so proud of my Aural because during the exam, I was damn sure for most of the answers and the examiner was really lovely too!

Pieces.
B3: You were sensitive to the stylistic requirements here and theme was some delicate articulation. It's a pity the progress became rather erratic and the tempo got much faster. Also, the cross rythms were not accurate. The dynamic contrast available in the development section was not realised and the 3rds passage lacked authority (?). A times, this melody has allowed to sing with great musical character.

20/30

A1: This was firmly established and the melodic strands were developed but the phrasing needed a chance to breathe. There was some stylistic articulation but the tempo was not always controlled. In the Fugue, the subject and answers need great definition as they tended to get lost in the overall texture. Some crisp fingerwork, but some passagework was confused today.

18/30

C2: The light and airy character of the music was conveyed successfully at the opening and there was humour realised in these sudden harmonic shifts. Unfortunately, progress became hindered when we experienced some lapsed chordal passages. The end 'Allegro Vivo', 'ff' passage was far too reserved, and the end climax was not evident.

21/30

Scales and Arpeggios.
All known, with a good sense of flow and momentum. There were difficulties in right hand 3rd scale. (B Flat Major and C Major). Also, some coordination difficulties in the chromatic and staccato scale. Slight blemishes in the arpeggios. Quick response.

17/21

Sight Reading.
This kept going, but the pulse was not steadqy and there were many errors of notes. Outline is evidence throughout.

14/21

Aural Tests.
Very good attempt. Cadence, and the 2nd modulation were both incorrect. Also, period of composition and texture were not accurate at D. Some pleasing responses throughout, however.

14/18

Additional Comments.
There were some very genuine and sincere elements in your programme today. At times, there were very musical characteristics but, rhythmically, the playing was sometimes lacking in authority. You have worked well and this is a well-deserved pass.

Well, a pass by only 4 marks but he said it's a well-deserve pass! At least I've got a load off my head!

D'you know the C piece, which I scored the highest among all the pieces, is my lousiest piece?

Bye for now!
