I ain't gonna talk much about my practices in this post. My practices are progressing well, gonna master the Flight of the Bumblebee piece quite soon. For now, i'm gradually increasing the speed of the piece. Super fun!:)

Almost 3 weeks have gone by ever since World Cup started, hell i'm depriving of sleep due to the midnight matches. But, since it's a once-every-4-years event, i'd say it's quite worth it! With the likes of Brazil, Argentina, Holland, England already booked their places in the knockout stages, i can't wait to sacrifice my sleep for the World Cup. Also, i'd say South Korea is one of the surprise packages who also booked their place in the knockout stages! This World Cup 2010 is seriously packed with lots of surprises. France was among the first few countries being knocked out of the World Cup. With only one point out of the possible nine in the groupstage, France had underperformed very badly under the heavily-criticised coach Raymond Domenech. I'd say Raymond Domenech should've been sacked after France's dismal performance in the Euro '08 in which they've scored only a goal throughout the whole tournament. I can't see how France is going to win World Cup with so much of instability among the whole squad. Fancy looking at Raymond Domenech not including star players lke Sami Nasri, Benzema, and not even including Theirry Henry into the line-up for all 3 groupstage matches, i'm not surprised at all that France was knocked out of the World Cup.

France, being one of the powerhouses, got knocked out of World Cup. The next powerhouse to be knocked out would be Italy. With old and aging players like Fabio Cannavaro, Pirlo, Gattuso in the squad, i'm doubting Italy will be good enough to get through the groupstages. Need not say winning the World Cup.

Alright, enough of the World Cup for now. Here's two blogshops done by two of my schoolmates; 1st: Eva, 2nd: Yixin, do check it out!

Maksim Mrvica

Born in Sibenik, a small, but beautiful medieval town on Croatia’s Adriatic Coast, the odds seemed stacked against Maksim achieving his dream.

It wasn’t long before it became obvious to Maksim’s teachers that he had a rare talent and the boy was enrolled in Sibenik state music school.

Thereafter, Maksim won his first ever competition in 1993.

The judge stopped the competition after his performance without even considering the other contestants, and announced him as the winner at the age of 18; merely 9 years after learning piano.
