BMT Graduation at the Floating Platform was awesome! Oh God, after watching the video coverage in the news, I feel so honoured to be there this morning to personally witness it. Everything was excellent, from the military band to the marching of the newly-trained soldiers. Some 3,078 soldiers from 13 companies! The digits are enough to explain everything else, haas! Waking up as early as 5.30am to pick up my bro's gf along with the whole family, tiresome but enjoyable! :)

Spent an hour today or so today, rearranging a piece for my poly friend Wanxin. She remembered that I promised her to teach her the piece First Love by Utada Hikaru, and I've made her wait all these while. wooopsidaisiesss! Well, I guess I will need to start giving her private classes after this semester. Heh, it's gonna be a sweet time teaching and catching up with her! :)

By far, in the whole of my entire life, I've never saved anybody's life. But, I just did yesterday and hell, it felt great! It was lightspeed, everything happened within a blink of an eye! Up till now, I'm still feeling grateful that I pulled her back in time. I can't imagine what would have happened, if I didn't see her crossing the road right there in front of me. It was rather amusing how she reacted with a shocked face before thanking me. Praise the Lord for blessing me, in order to be a blessing to you, aye. :)

Morning service tmr at 9am, meeting up with my new friends again! Then, I will be bringing them to the eateries nearby my sch for lunch! Gotta finish up my revisions(writing of notes, reading-up of theory notes), practising of aural, and practising of pieces. And, if time permits, a late afternoon swim will be sweet! :) Exciting day ahead tmr! :))

When Darkness comes, always remember He is always there by our side.
He will lead and guide us towards the Light.
Fear not, have faith!

Here's an update once in awhile, a short one.

This monday's aural/theory class was the very first time in quite awhile, in which I get to exit the classroom without any sense of guilt, sadness or worry. It was the very first time I'm pleased with my progress in class. Well, things are going up and up until later this week.

My progress regarding my main study were wayyy too slow, and I felt that I might not even make it in time for the recital in mid-November. And, then I started missing you, and everything..all over again. Well, at least, I get to have a breather over the wkend with my brother having his Pass-out Parade which officially signifies him graduating and finishing BMT. At the Marina Bay Floating Platform! Gonna be a grand moment! :)

44 days to mid-yr exams and recitals. 44 days to make a difference, and bank in the distinctions. Smile, I'm gonna make it through! :))

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.
