Yippieeeee!! Feeling happy today because I finally acted upon my thoughts of taking up classical vocal training. And singing repertoire from musical theatre! Starting with a piece from My Fair Lady.
Although idk where this will take me, but I'm quite sure my Voice is gonna be my principle instrument. I love singing the most, anyways (:
Have been inspired by many people these few weeks, people who made me understand the reason for making music. And I saw a whole new light as to what exactly is Music; it's not just about the type of music I like to listen to. At the same time, I'm really put off by some others, who refuse to accept new things and remain narrow-minded about what they think is Music. Well, I would think it's not my concern that it hinders your musical growth in that sense, but don't insult a serious musician, and if you do it pisses me off REAL bad.
On a brighter note, am currently writing for a string trio! Musicians from YST will be coming down for a workshop whereby they'll be playing our works. Hahah writing for real musicians' really different from just sequencing the sound in Logic and then scoring afterwards. Really interesting to learn about the instrument itself and the techniques! Hoping the piece will turn out great :D
Alright then, till the next post!

First post of 2013
2013, currently I'm in the third week of a new semester. I've also received my results for the previous semester and they turned out to be rather demoralizing. The numbers look demoralizing, but they are apparently the "normal" range in Lasalle.
The system goes like this:
70-100 : A
60-69 : B
50-59 : C
40-49 : D
And 40% is the passing mark for all modules.
With this system, I fall mainly into the B&C category. Imagine how demoralizing it has be seeing 50-60 odd kinda grade, and all of us are getting such numbers. Bleah.
So with that I told myself, I'm gonna buck up and do well this semester. Everytime I re-listen to my compositions I wonder, what exactly am I doing? I have fallen below my expectations and it does not feel good.
Oh yes and I shouldn't be wasting time posting this, get back to work! Till the next post!
