Love this piano piece. And it's a dream come true for me to learn this piece and play it on a piano. Hopefully can play it on a grand piano 1 day!
ps: the change of camera angle was not intentional~

What a great week it has been! Just last week, I had problems with work & worrying if I can pass my IPPT (the thought of remedial training kills me~). Didn’t know my fitness deteriorated so much after NS. I could only do 4 pull ups, I was almost dying after doing 20 over sit ups, standing broad jumps is always inconsistent and my best run in the last few weeks for an estimated 2.4km run was 12:51. I needed to reach 12:40 to pass!
This week, my mistake in work was resolved & the other problems should be settled soon. I ordered my digital piano on Friday! Bought 2 shirts (last time I bought was like last June & the last last time was 2 years ago). Hardly pamper myself~ I also got to watch Jay Chou’s concert on Friday! Thanks to the free tickets my Uncle gave. The visuals in the beginning was phewwwwwwwwwwwww weeeeet. Really amazing. Don’t know how he did it, but he was seemingly in a sphere, flying in mid air and rotating. Then he played an electric guitar. Freaking awesome. Of course, I don’t think he was really inside, but it was very real. They call it 4D. I tried to find videos online to re-watch, but they don’t justify what I saw live. Really amazing stuff. But other than that, I was pretty disappointed. His vocals was good (sang extremely high for some songs) but I look for other things in a concert. I would rather stay at home and listen to his CDs if there isn’t gonna be anything different. And there really wasn’t much change of arrangement and stuff. He didn’t sing songs he wrote for others too (like the many he did in his previous concerts). In his last concert, he changed the arrangement of Shuang Jie Gun and that was pretty refreshing. He also had a piano duet with Yu Hao like in his movie, Secret. So overall:
Visual: 10
Music: 8
Diversity: 0
And I passed my IPPT on Saturday! What a miracle~ My prayers have not been in vain!
SBJ – 221cm (3 pts)
Sit Up – 31 (2 pts)
Pull Up – 5 (2 pts)
Shuttle Run – 10:4 secs (4 pts)
2.4km – 12:19!!!!!! (2 pts)
After knowing that I passed my static stations, I just ran for my life in the 2.4km~ Just 3 more points, and I would have qualified for $100. But I’m just glad to pass now. No remedial trainings!!! Aiming silver next!

Felt alot for this song after Junior passed away and decided to learn it. It's Sadness & Sorrow from the anime, Naruto.
my mom:It’s hard for some people to understand how attached humans can be to dogs. Junior is part of our family member and it’s not an exaggeration at all. We all love him to bits. And it’s extremely painful for me because everything around me reminds me of him. He was no longer there when I woke up this morning. I looked to the mattress he loves to lean on and he wasn’t there. I went downstairs to buy lunch and every step walked, there were images of me walking with him. But he won’t be doing it anymore. I came back home and he wasn’t there to greet me anymore. There was also no glutton eyeing my food, no frightened furball cozying to me when there's thunder. I cried in every scenario because he was simply in every part of our lives. And he is not anymore.
