Jazz Festival 2008 (Penang)

went to Jazz Festival 2008 yesterday with shir fang, elaine and kim yong. we set off at 9.30 am and reach there at about 10.30am. they are holding a very cool but hot activity during that time - cool because the rhythm they played on all sorts of percussion are very enjoyable; hot because this activity is held under the hot sun ^-^


~from left: elaine, me, kim yong, shir fang~

we attended an indoor activity too. the way the vietnamese introduced their instruments, how they add-on their tradition into a jazzy piece and the use of pentatonic scales in the melody, sounds very interesting to me if compared to others, and more over, they sound nice :)



~bamboo xylophone - 'trung' ~


~performances during day time and night time by vietnamese~


~KOREAN!!! 3 guys in a group, a double bass player(left), drummer(right), pianist(with the hat).~

the double bass player and the drummer were eating when i requested to take a pic with them. see, they're still holding popcorn and beer =P they are all very friendly, even their photographer too! i was impressed with their performance, especially the pianist. he's blind but he played very well on the piano. INCREDIBLE!!!!!

here're the lunch my friends and i took yesterday.

location: Pastamania at Gurney Plaza.


~i'd ordered a plate of tuna and bacon, and a passion fruit italian soda. D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S.~

the desserts are tasty! we ordered 1 Banna Pizza Dessert and 1 Chocolate Mousse.


~Banana Pizza Dessert. YUM! YUM!~

but they sent us another 3 more desserts for free! ^3^


~Chocolate Mousse, Tiramisu and Coffee Creme Brulee! OMG!!! SUPER YUM YUM!!!!~

at the beginning, they free for us only the choc mousse and tiramisu, then they add on another 'free' dessert - 'coffee creme brulee'. ^^

so, why they gave us for free? are we that pretty to influence them to treat us? hahahahahaha! hopefully yes but that's not the reason. the main reason was, they served one of our dishes late, and that's why they treated us these desserts, in order to apology to us. hmmm... are we lucky or what, in this kind of situation? we're all very full after taking the pasta, and yet, they still sent us all these free desserts *swt* well, we're lucky i guess, coz these desserts aren't cheap for us: Choc mousse(RM 6.50), Tiramisu(RM 6.90), Coffee Creme Brulee(RM 6.50).

now, let's see these 4 lucky person -

LLCM examination day [[ 051208 ]]

really hard to describe how i felt this morning.

sometimes confident, sometimes nervous;
sometimes could ease myself into this kind of situation, sometimes couldn't.

the venue for today's exam is in penang. i was so afraid that i :
- forgot to bring the flash cards;
- forgot to bring the books for the presentation;
- forgot to bring those photocopies which i'd prepared for the examiner;
- forgot to bring the note book to revise everything . . .

tu-diaaaaa... almost crazy ler... but luckily when i went into the exam hall, everything's back to normal again, and i even find myself doing better in demo and presentation and felt more comfortable than the other days ^-^ in the viva voce section, the examiner talked to me more than asking me questions. ermm... it's like i'm having lesson, not sitting for exam. i knew that i'm not doing that well in this part, but i'm really glad that i did my best today =)

this examiner is a guy and his name is . . . MR. RICHARD 'LAMB' 'BIRD'. sorry mr. examiner, for not knowing how to spell your name =P

after the exam, evelyn and i went for a movie - 'Madagascar 2' in gurney plaza. evelyn is the one who acts as a model in my demo. while searching for a place to park the car, i banged into a car, and wasted RM 250 to solve this case without reporting to the police -.-" after tht incident, we still kept on with our plan. i'd bought a photo frame for bb cherlyn and also a birthday card for king kochi. king, very touching huh? hehe!

we went back at 6pm and i received a sudden call from ah sir. it's a good news, but i must keep it as a secret for a few days or maybe a few months ^+++^ while waiting for the ferry and chatting with evelyn in the car, an English man suddenly waved and smiled at me. that really shocked me but i smiled back at him later on. at least this time i'm more polite than a few weeks ago, while i talked on the phone while driving, there's a young malay guy ard my age, sitting behind his friend on a motorcycle, also did the same thing, but i just looked at him without smiling. that's really rude isn't it? but pa ma said dun simply smile at strangers . . . so . . . should i smile, or not???? =.="


this is evelyn. this pic is taken in the car while waiting for the ferry.

these are bb lynn's latest pic, took it just now. she's one month old d lor ^O^



many things happened in one day, and i'm feeling really tired now. slept for only 5 hours in 2 days . . . =.= ZzZzzz Good Night.

after a long time...

it's 14 days, not 9 days.... T.T bloggy blog~ i'm back!!!

it's been a long time, my old fren didn't pay me a visit....... flu ahhhhhhh~~!!! even though i dislike u, but i'm really glad that u're here since the day before yesterday. don't even think of coming to visit me AGAIN during the 1st week of december k? it's an important @ exam week for me. and now, i'll try my best not to stop you from moving on with ur journey. there's a baby girl in my house, i can't resist both angel and demon at one time, in one house. i need to choose only one, and, very sorry to say that, i choose the angel ^^

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i dreamt of something really weird 2 days ago. there're 3 scenes.

1st scene
i saw i'm holding the hp my 3rd ex gave me in my hand (i love that hp very much, but due to not being together anymore, i'd given it back to him). in the dream, i'm still thinking. i'm thinking of y is the phone still here? aren't i returned it to him d? or i bought a new one myself? omg... it's so real! during that time, i'm considering too. i'm considering whether i want to sms him, or not? but soon, i'd decided not to, coz i knew he has a new partner d. although we're still frenz, it's not good to sms him so often.

(soon the decision is made, the scene changed... =.=)

2nd scene
i'm in my working place, chit-chatting with frenz in the dream.

we chit-chat a lot in reality. there's a fren, she's in her thirties, she has a hubby and a son but still having an affair with a young guy in his early twenties (well, that's according to my other frenz, i didn't really see it myself =.=) but, isn't that bad? i dunno who started 1st but since she's my fren, and my pa ma's fren's daughter, i feel that i should do something to make it right (how busybody i am! *swt*). i pretended that i want to know some new guys to be friend with, and ask her to introduce. she said she doesn't have guys to introduce at first. but then the next day, she asked for my pic and said there's one guy she wants to introduce to me. my other frenz and me knew which guy is that, but her reaction is still very weird in front of us.

back to the dream, i chat with her. she's very opened and told me that she wanted to be with that guy and not willing to let that guy to be frenz with me. i was angry. angry of wat? i've no idea. i went to the washroom later on. when i'm doing my tiny little business, i suddenly realized that i didn't lock the door. in my fastest speed, i locked the door, but out of nowhere, i saw a little girl's left eye peeping through a hole (it's a big and pretty eyes, how i know it's a left eye? -.- no comment). i knew there's no hole in the washroom but in my spontaneous reaction, i still shout out 'there's someone in the washroom!'. the eye dissapear, i stood up quickly but bang into a kid who's standing behind me, in that small washroom (WTH!). i yelled, and he yelled too! then he giggled (crazy kid!) he's around 5 years old, with a dark skin colour and a pair of big eyes. 1st impression, he's cute. deep down my heart, i knew he's a toyol, but wonder why, i'm not afraid of him. i treat him like other normal young kid, i kept asking how he came into the washroom. he said he's been following me from the 1st floor, the room where i work, and he's sitting on my shoulder all the time (sounds like THE SHUTTER huh? hahahahaha!). then we went out the washroom.

(the scene changed again after that...)

3rd scene
i knew i'm still there, but this time i saw that toyol playing with another lady. a tall and elegant lady, wearing a fancy dress, with curly short hair, gold in colour. in this scene, i'm just like standing beside, watching a movie. that's a cow-boy type of movie. that lady finally also realized that little kid's a toyol. then, again, out of nowhere, i heard someone talking to me, explaining to me that, that toyol won't harm me, it's harmless. that person is just standing in front of me, but dunno why, i can only hear what he says, can't see how he looks like.

(the hp alarm woke me up soon after that person explained to me...)

for the first time, i could remember the whole dream and dreamt all of it. i had this dream in the morning, after 6.30am, after my younger sister woke me up to ask me what's the time i'll be going to work. the dream end on 8.30am.

i told pa ma. ma asked me whether got asked for numbers from that toyol -.-".

i told my frenz. they said i think too much, too stress.

am i stress? well, i'm very sure that i'm not as stress as i was a few weeks ago. but, it could be, right?

sometimes, dream could be a msg to our life, isn't it?

i've found this cool website about dreams - www.globalrapidinfo.com

it says:

Ex
To dream of your ex-boyfriend/girlfriend or ex-husband/wife or that you and your ex got back together suggests that something or someone in your current life that is bringing out similar feelings you felt during the relationship with your ex. Sometimes, past lovers often highlight the positive experiences you had with that person.

Eyes
To see your own eyes in your dream signifies knowledge, understanding and intellectual awareness. To dream that something is in your eye symbolizes obstacles in your path. It may also represent your critical ways. To dream that you only have one eye indicates that you refuse to see the viewpoints of others. To dream that you have crossed eyes denotes that you are not seeing straight with regards to a situation and you may be getting your facts mixed up.

Evil
To dream that someone or something is evil denotes a repressed or forbidden aspect of yourself. This dream may also be a reflection of your strong, negative emotions like anger, hate, etc.

hmm... it's almost like what i figured. in the 1st scene, i dreamt about my 3rd ex, maybe it's telling me that i can't help everyone everytime. i can't fix everything if it's already getting into shape. my 3rd ex is one of the example, and i'm now doing the same as what i'd done during my 3rd relationship.

okay, now i know where i'm stepping into. this dream really comes in time ^.^ as a fren, as an adult, i can just hope that my fren has a mature brain to think about her own incident.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today is Sunday, and BB Cherlyn's here! she's one month old d! haha! Like a vampire, she sleeps during day time and damn active during night time. another siao cha bor appears in Chia family -.-' i'm now listening to the song i'd downloaded, at the same time, i'm also listening to the song she 'sings'. well, we must keep her awake during day time. so, what to do? i rather choose to listen her 'singing' now. it's always better than enjoying it in the middle of the night, right?

now, Fish Leong's <会呼吸的痛> is in the air, very sweet, very nice =) going to join a vocal lesson on december. besides being a piano teacher, am i going to be successful in being a vocal teacher? well, everything depends on how i learn during the lesson -- (^o^)V -- PEACE!!!

T.T still need to read more books ler...

crazy monday

got lotsa cherlyn's pics these days, taken by her mommy, my sista. today they're transferring bb from spg ampat to kangar T.T~ a long trip from sp =.="

before setting off, bb stay at home for about 2 hours. i postponed one of my student just to rush back to see her. i think i'm the craziest teacher in depiano house, the only one -.-

she's very strong and steady, doesn't like ppl wrapping her like a cocoon(tht's what her paternal granny told us). her maternal granny wanted to see her reaction, so she wrapped her with a cloth.

i carried her, nothing happened.

i put her down, she started to struggle... struggle till her face red, yet the cloth's still around her.

she stopped struggling. i thought she's going to 'sing' but she didn't. i thought she's going to give up but she didn't. she's resting. then she continues. (damn it! she's tough!)

okay, she succeeded finally. the cloth's loosened. when i unwrapped her, she smiled. (awww! wicked child! wakakaka!)

"must work hard~ only can win" a hokkien song, suits her.
