haven't been blogging for a super long time... waiting for inspiration to do compo now... hmmm i realised it's not really that effective to sit under the tree waiting for the apple to drop. and then there's the harmony paper... only just remembered while chatting with pohning on msn just now. oh ya, anyone knows how to get rid of the grey notes at the cursor when trying to input notes on sibelius 3 pls enlighten me, it's super distracting.

yesterday's piano lesson was quite inspiring... motivated to practise more. thought provoking too... my teacher was just talking about how typical singapore students lose the reactivity and emotions that come naturally when they were babies. and then she was saying we're very developed intellectually, but on the emotional level we're actually quite low (a nice way to say that my playing lacks emotions and reactivity...) so i'm supposed to try to "revive the emotions", according to her, by "feeding ur soul with the musical food it needs" haha okok... i know i haven't been going for concerts for quite a while... and all i've been listening to so far are concertos in the 19th century... again... =) and then there were also complaints that i'm very prone to concentration lapses... quite true... but then i dunno how to solve the problem... she tells me to concentrate on what i'm feeling while playing instead of concentrating on the notes. so i lose concentration on the notes and forget what comes next. then i concentrate on the notes and forget what i'm feeling... ????!!! watever... i shall try my best to concentrate on both.

tmr got learning journey... and i dun even noe where we'll be going. how "fun"... dun wanna go... but then again, if i dun go i still have to go for band. wat difference does it make? ok... back to doing my compo... about 60 hrs left...
