on new year's eve night... i had to go to Palace of the Golden Horses with my frens for a wedding performance. a string quintet plus a flute.

new year's eve night..instead of hanging out with frens, i'm at Palace of Golden Horses. had only 1 'pathetique' nasi pattaya for dinner at 4.30 pm...and was starving halfway thru the performance....

us.... the classical side.

the girls... contemp + classical

me and mr. composer....
i got soo restless on the stage while the modern band was playing..
and i started taking photos...

i took pictures of my surrounding first...
cuz my surrounding is the most untidiest compare to the rest.....

then i took pic of ppl down there...

the modern band playing on the other end
then..i took a pic of winston...

jess then took hold of my cam and took a pic of cookie monster..
the cute cookie monster..
jess

and last but not least.... ME !!!!! trying to look arrogant ...

then..we went to the curve for countdown..but it was too jammed up...

in the end, we were looking at firecrackers from inside the car...... jus infront of 1u..

then..we went to Raechan's house..and dragged some of our instruments down into her house..

then..me and Raechan talked the whole night...

from guys to clothes to piano playing.....

we talked and talked...

i rmb peering at my phone..and noticed it was 4.30 am... then i thought..nvm, i still hv 2 more hrs be4 i need to wake up..

then, after while, i look again, it was 5.30 am..we're still discussing how to memorize a piece efficiently.... i thought..nvm, i stil hv 1 hour to sleep..

at about..6 sth, i slept...

7am, my dad called me....

7.30 am, i'm on my way back to kepong, to church to play organ for morning mass...

wah..i was sleeping on the organ... my eyes were stuck close while playing... i jus rely on my senses located on the fingers to fumble through the keyboard... and i cant hear myself at all cuz the guitars were too loud, i cant hear myself at all..

i dunn even know wat i'm playing..
whether i'm playing the correct notes anot...

after mass...i KO..

me and jess worked together....

she did typing..while i paste newspaper cut-outs onto A4 papers...

we did it for 5 hrs... but i think i did only 3 and a half hrs..hahahaha..cuz i kept sneaking out to practice piano, eat, toilet....

while we work, we were sharing earphones, listening to our favourite violin concertos and violin music....

we din realize we're taling very loudly..cuz we cant hear ourselves with the loud background music at our eardrums....

we're talking damn loudly...i think the teachers must be thinking we're chatterbox...

incident 1
eli: ahh..here comes my fav part....

.......................................................................................................
after work....we went and waited for the bus..

we waited and waited..

2 bus passed by but did not stop to pick us up..

we got furious!!!!!

me, jess and voon foong stormed out of the exit and marched down the slope....towards the main gate..

for those who came to sedaya b4 will know it's a long way down..we have to pass by 3 blocks of buildings...

we reached the bottom of the 'hill' .. no.. slope...

and saw the bus driver climbing down from the bus..

and i marched up and asked him, uncle..are u fetching ppl???

he say, no wor..u wait la..one more bus coming....

us: BUT WE WAITED FOR VERY LONG ALREADY!!!!!!!

him: wait la..coming already...

then, jess suggested to walk to the main gate and see if there's any cabs..

when we were nearly approaching....

WE SAW THE BUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and we shouted...

and we ran all the way up..

up the slope..

the stupid slope..

the .. hmm.. 45 degrees slope......

we were trying to be faster than the bus

we ran like mad person...

if anyone look down from upstairs..

they might think we're crazy..

racing up the slope...

when we reach the top.. we were panting like crazy....

my legs were like jelly...

i bet other ppl who were waiting for the bus will laugh at us if they knew we walked all the way down and ran all the way up jus cuz we're not patient enuf...

Sem 2 has come to an end... i'm so so so so glad. i've been waiting for this day since the beginning of the semester.

orchestra concert last nite marks the end of my semester..although i'm overjoyed but..kinda sad too...it also means i wont be seeing my frens for 2 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway, i've planned my holidays to avoid boredom...
1. i'll learn yoga
2. i'll learn erhu
3. i'll teach music
4. i'll go back to uni to practice my next semester's CME
5. i'll go back to uni to find frens who doesnt go back to their hometown
6. i'll find frens around my area to shop
7. i'll go to singapore to buy my violin case

hmmm.... oh ya... one more...

find jesssie.... to cook mac and cheese and choc cake

guess all this will make me stay away from growing moulds on my head... dun want my brown streak to turn green

i'm going to sarah chang's concert tomoro. so happy!!!! cuz i can see mr. prody, sok meng, jessica and i can kill shin hong... i'll strangle him for spreading his virus to me... now i'm down with flu.....

yesterday, me and jessica went shopping... and i spot a dress....

i fell in love with that dress... i want to get sth like tat for my graduation recital!!!!!!

.. we had no choice but to drag our violins with us.. u know wat we did?????

my violin is tooo heavy for me to carry the whole day la....

then... we followrd Raechan to uni....

followed my rehearsal and then the concert...

some pics of UCSI-UPM orchestra concert....

me at the back....

the 2 conductors...
during the flute concerto

before the piano concerto
during the piano concerto

well..glad it's over.. thinking of how we had to travel to UPM for practice.....
i still remembered the night we got lost...
we, 3 girls...
took the wrong highway
went all the way to putrajaya instead of Damansara.....

the highway was sooo long....neverending
so scary.......

but.. well.... at least there's 3 of us, and not alone.....

i need to thank Aaron Lo tooo for travelling up and down with me to Uni, early in the morning...
u've been a great CHamber music ensemble partner.. great playing with u.....
hope u learnt sth and enjoyed urself in UCSI...

us in one of the coaching....i'm sooo happy this sem is over.... well it means tat next year, i'm sem 3!!!!!! so fast!!!!!!!!! my gudnesss.....

i think i realized sth about me in this semester...

i'm not.. definitely NOT a classical player.... and i start to dislike classical songs... esp Mozart and Haydn....

i think i like Baroque and Romantic more and more and more......

esp after my sickening, disappointing, heartaching piano jury....

my heart crashed when i step out of the jury room....

so heartaching....

i love u, J.S.Bach

it's friday night...which is the only night when i can relax my mind and my body and my soul and my fingers and my vocal chords for few hours.....

had a hectic week...rushing up and down...dun even have time to sleep...

the worst day in this week was yesterday. THURSDAY....

music history mid term test

i din expect it could be so hard.cuz all the quizes were not as mad as the mid term paper....
below are some examples... not exaggerated ones but they are modified versions of the exam questions...

what is the form of the 1st movement of Haydn's Symphony no.61?
i was like....i dun even know how that symphony sounds like ....

what two instruments are playing duet in the trio of mozart's 3rd movement of symphony no.20?
i dun even know how the 1st movement sounds like, how'd i know how the 3rd mvt sounds like, particularly only the trio part???? mad arrrrrr

Beethoven originally composed symphony no.3 for who??
well..this was still ok .. but i still got it wrong..din see the word ORIGINALLY

which are the 2 instruments in Beethoven's symphony no.5 that were not present in Haydn's symphony?
i was like...wat..ok..so..i hv to study the scores for every single symphony present in the world and rmb the orchestration?? this is mad...

ok..it's basically like tat..sth like tat...

when the exam jus started...
i stared at question 1.. i dunno how to do...
question 2, also dunno
question 3, also dunno
question 4, also dunno
question 5, also dunno

ok..fine..flip paper...

also same...

all dunno how to do..

we study Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven.
Haydn composed 102 symphonies. mozart 41 symphonies. beethoven has 9 symphonies... walau..which means, i hv to make sure i know how each and every one of them sounds like???? wahh..........there's still concertos, sonatas...symphonies are only one genre!!!!
i dun even hv time to sleep...mana ada time to listen to all these one by one????

i nearly failed

lucky i passed!!!!!

then...next come Chamber Music Ensemble... i practiced our songs last nite with Aaron.. he was like...Eli!!! how can u not practice?? u muzz practice! not jus only be4 i come!!!!!

hahahhha....

no time to eat and sleep also.....

and i lost half of my scores jus be4 my class starts.....
i dunno how i lost it..it jus went missing....

worst still, i have to work cuz of that stupid scholarship thingy...

waste my time working.. no time to practice piano , violin and voice..

i'm always sight reading or sight singing for my classes....

to the extend i msg my piano teacher, ask her, can i cancel tomoro's class??i'm not prepared at all....

but she say no....i'll let u hv half an hour class instead of one whole hour then...

AND... some stupid ppl LOCK MY LOCKER!!!!!!
cuz i din pay for this sem...
BUT THEY SHUD'NT LOCK MY LOCKER TOOO!!!!!!

i leave Sedaya almost 9 to 10pm everyday.. sometimes when we hv to go over to UPM for orchestra practice, it'll be worst. it's almost 12am when i reach home....

....

oh...and i nearly left my violin in Sedaya..going home without it..lucky i hv my dear Quinnie to remind me that my violin is still lying in the practice room...careless me...

:(

2008-09-14T19:59:00.003+08:00

life's sooo busy..no time for blogging, manicure, sleeping, eating, resting, yam cha, shopping..bla bla....

kinda regret studying music..

dunno why....

i'm always rushing here and there, trying to find for scores, trying to find practice room, trying to find free time....

really regret studying music....

lately, my brain's getting worst and worst..my memory..sth's very wrong with it. i keep forgetting things and worst stilll, keep misplacing my stuffs!!!!!!!!!!

1. my file... all my important documents and my scores... i've misplaced it a few times..always found by my frens....they'll pass it to me, then only i'll realize my file's missing.

2. my purse..it's always missing

3. my handphone.. i'm always leaving it everywhere.. and i'll forget to bring it with me when i leave..

4. my books!!!! my damn expensive music history books!!!!!! i'm always searching high and low for it....

5. last but not least.. my violin which costs me a life's fortune... i'm always forgetting it..cant blame me..it's so damn heavy. cant carry it everywhere i go..so, i tend to leave it somewhere and i'll forget bout it....

I NEARLY LOST MY VIOLIN TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i got a shock when i suddenly realize my violin's

all my hard work..all my notes...

my heart broke apart when i saw this.... periodic table... i stuffed it backed onto the shelve.. i just cant throw it away..all my memories...i cant throw it away....

Terry's wedding

2008-07-27T20:21:00.007+08:00

yesterday was my cousin's wedding...... i was her bridesmaid and violinist ....

i woke at 5.30am to prepare everything and to 'groom' myself.... then..i couldnt wake my dad up! i was supposed to reach her house at 7am to do makeup!!!... i left my house at 7am in the end and sped my way to her house... dad was screaming at me, ask me to drive slower... i told him, u made me late...

reached there... the makeup artists were doing makeup on the other 2 bridesmaid..so..i went down to have my breakfast first....

then... when it was my turn.... i saw them preparing the false eyelashes for me.. i was liike..... oh no man... i told them, can i not have them on me??? scary man... scared of that stuffs.. dun wish to lose my real lashes when i remove the falsies...

before they style my hair.......

i think it took almost half an hour to do makeup.. then... i have to wait for the hairstylist to do my hair..... it was 9am already when she did my hair!!!!! half way thru curling my hair.. we heard the groom's car horn. we're like....SHIT!!!!!

both of us start to panick.. ppl downstairs keep calling me...the only way i can make everybody calm is by saying... i'm nearly done!! when i'm still halfway curling....not yet setting my hair!! then... we heard the groom coming in already... other girls in the 'chip san leong' team shouted for my name.... i told them to go on without me first.....

then..when i'm done.... i rushed downstairs and took my rose and join in the team....
we, the chip san leong team are the girls who will stop the groom from going to the bride so easily. there's 8 of us. each of us holding a rose. he has to collect 8 roses in order to collect the ninth one which is in the bride's hand. so..which means he has to cross 8 obstacles....

me and my rose...

the chip san leong team and the best men...

me and my bro....
the flowers are damn nice man...

the boxes behind me are cakes... very delicious cakes...

then.. we rushed to the church.. i quickly set up my violin and tune my violin... din even practice with the band. i was thinking..shit.... hope i wont improvise wrongly later man.... dun wanna screw my cousin's wedding...
me walking down the aisle after the flower girl and page boy

out side the church...

at the groom's house...

then..we rushed to the hotel.. Prince Hotel. we got a room and started to remove makeup, bathe and got ready to makeup for the night session...my last photo be4 i change my makeup to the night one...

then.... they styled my hair first for there wasnt enuf time since the hair styler was free... i got a shock when i saw my hairstlye..

i jumped up when i saw my makeup. i couldnt recognize myself!!!!!!

i dun like this look at all..i prefer the morning one...
me and my bro..
my hair from the back...the worst part of the dinner was when i need to escort a man up to do his speech. i had to wait near the stage... his speech damn long. my legs were already aching... wa... i was waiting for his speech to end. worst still, he got to speak in both languages. english and japanese. i was like... walau....my legs arrrr...

UCSI Music Audition

2008-04-22T22:19:00.002+08:00

today, 22nd of april was my audition in UCSI.

i arrived at 7.15 am. early lerrrrrr.... sat at the entrance and plug my ipod into ears, listening to my Chopin's scherzo ( one of my audition piece) and stare at the students who walk into Sedaya.
i got culture shock!!!!! everyone who walks in wear t shirt and jeans. it's like..so standardized!!!my gosh.... in taylors.. there're sooo many fanciful wears... now, i know why ppl say, Taylors, Sunway are all fashion-walk places... now, i can accept that statement. it's true. i cant find anyone in minis or dresses or spagetthi tops or tube tops....all sensible t shirt and jeans..... EVEN MY DAD NOTICED THAT TOO...

then..at 8.15am, me and my dad went to the music area. hoping it'll be open. lucky!!!! it's open d... we went and meet the receptionist. she gave me a choice, to go eat sth or to play and wait in the audition room. since i'm full ( ate bread and 2 eggs in the morning), i went into the audition room and started playing my pieces. My dad explored the room.

there's a grand piano and an upright piano side by side. both Yamaha. i tried the grand piano first. it's soooo oily and sticky. the more i play, the stickier it become. me and my dad ended up wiping the keyboard. ewwwwww.... then, i tried the upright, it's sooo much better.

at 9am, i went in for my theory test. o gosh..as usual, i sux in theory....i did until my head crack. i din even study bout theory the past few weeks. thinking of it makes me sick. die means die laa...i'm not very keen to study in Sedaya also...

around..dunno wat time also.. maybe..40 mins later, i started my practical. i first asked them...

Eli : can i play on the upright instead of grand piano?

Judge : why?? ppl usually prefer the grand piano..but it's up to u..

Eli : ( before i can cheat him by saying i like upright more than grand piano) my dad said...

Dad : ( my dad straight told the truth ) cuz the grand piano's key board is sooo oily and sticky.

Eli : i stared at my dad ( how can he tell the truth !??!?!??!?! )

Dad : we even wiped it just now. but, it's still sticky

haihh..so funny lorrr...havent even start studying already comment ppl's piano sticky laa..not good laa..bla bla..hahhahaha

1. Bach's prelude and fugue no.2 : it was a bit shaky. my left and right hand din coordinate that well..shit....

2. Chopin's scherzo no.2 : ahh..this is way better... i'm satisfied wiht my playing in this piece. it's 10 mins long..after.. maybe 7 mins, they ask me to stop. can move to the next song. hahahhahahhahaa....i'm so darn glad cuz i always screw up at the end..

3. Debussy's Clair d Lune : normal lor....satisfied..i think i played better than wat i usually play at home...

my scales sux too... forgotten those..3rd aparts and 6th aparts....duh..dun care

sight reading was fine...

aural lagi syok!!!!! so fun!!!!! hahahhaahhaahahahha...

overall, i'm quite satisfied.. i cant wait to start studying laa..so bored at home... everyday practice violin 24 hrs only...noting else....

excited eli

2008-04-17T21:32:00.003+08:00

I cant wait to start my Uni life laaaaa... cant it be faster??? 5th of May!!! pls arrive faster!!!!!

imagine myself..carrying violin to uni instead of bags... so fun!!!!!! so cool!!!!!! me and my violin..we wont be separated.. it'll follow me everywhere i go...

study music will be sooo fun.. ( i guess)
it's sth i like..so..i think..i wont feel that i'm studying after all...
1. i've been waiting and waiting to study music history and piano pedagogy and stuffs like tat..
2. i love playing on my instrument..playing it 24 hrs a day is no prob at all...
3. although i dread analysing music and music theory..but.. it's better than calculus
4. i cant wait to be with music all day long, without worrying about my unfinished mathematics or physics

WOW!!!! finally!!! i'm off from all those formulas and theories..photons and neutrons...calculus and trigo... i'm freed!!!! yipee.. hahhahaa..

music.. come to me.... COME TO ME!!!!

my final decision

2008-04-09T21:40:00.002+08:00

my dear friends.. 22nd of april is my audition in UCSI. i hope i wont freak out... i wish i can play perfectly well.. but... can i??? :(

for those who are still blur.. ya... i'm not going Australia or New Zealand or Taiwan... i'll be staying in Malaysia, studying in UCSI...sedaya university college..

i've changed my course of study.. not change actually.. the correct word would be..i've made my decision.. i've chose music.. i've thought about it... i cant live without it, esp my violin. i love it too much... i love my violin.....................

so.. since i've chosen music, i hv nowhere to study. either Taiwan, Singapore or Malaysia. I'm still waiting for NUS's Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music's reply. if i'm qualified for it, i'll go there and stop my studies in Sedaya. As for Taiwan... i prefer Malaysia over taiwan. it's all in mandarin...i can die studying there.. i rather stay in Malaysia..

so...tat's bout it. my latest news...

walking the path to death

2008-03-28T11:08:00.002+08:00

As i walked down the roads
my tears trickled down
splattered on my pale cheeks

I look up at the sky
hoping that the sunlight can dry my tears
and the wind can blow my unhappiness away

My heart cracked open
and bleed
bleed....

i love you
too much indeed
which ended up with more problems

u want to protect me
from danger
but it made our distance even further

u want to protect my heart
from intruder
but we ended up breaking apart

the more u care for me
the more u protect me
the worst it will be

i love the days when we cook together
discussing which to throw into the pan first
and burn the garlics...

i love the days when we play music together
u on ur guitar
me on my piano

i love the days when we play together
u'll try to catch me
i'll try to run and hide

i love the days when we hv lunch together
jus the 2 of us
as we laugh at silly jokes

i love u
dad..
i love u...

but..
the more i love u
the more hurtful it'll be for us

tat's why..
i feel..
the best decision...

is to leave each other

daddy..i love u...
it's because i love u
i dun want to hurt u

i love u, dad.
i really love u...

sick of myself

2008-03-27T23:26:00.003+08:00

WHEN CAN I CHANGE MY ATTITUDE?!?!??!!?!?

my dad's right. My mom's right.Angie's right. Jason's right. all my frens are right. :( i'm forever last minute. CAN I EVER CHANGE??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

i just got myself into whole lots of troubles... all cuz of my last minute-ness. i'm sick of myself. seriously. when can i change? in church... i'll be super last minute, and super ignorant. jus dun care. cuz i know..in the end, everything will turn out smoothly.

but this time.... i hope...i wont regret for my life time... due to my last minute-ness. if not..i'll nvr ever forgive myself.....

GOD!!!!!! pls!!!!! change me.....

perhaps..someday, someone might change me. will i learn thru the hard way? or..will someone touch my heart and change my sickening character?

I HATE MY LAST MINUTE CHARACTER!!!!!!

Another composition

2008-03-26T13:47:00.003+08:00

today..when i woke up it was lunch time... i cant eat at all..missing some dude terribly. suddenly, i had the inspiration to compose sth.... and i composed this song

nothing can break us apart

actually, i wanted to name it 'with u, for u', but.. these words was not to be found in the lyrics at all...and, 'nothing can break us apart' was present there for 4 times..so..i changed the title of the song....

the lyrics.....

Nothing can break us apart --- Elizabeth Chua 26^th march 2008

When I look into your eyes I see the meaning of love
When I stare at your nose I feel the power of love
You can bring me to the sky and through the Heaven’s door
Shining in our eyes there Is love

Holding hands together we shall make miracles
Completing God’s will under his eyes
With the love and strength that God has given us
Nothing can break us apart

When u pull me close to you I feel the breathe of life
When you hold me close to you I know the meaning of life
When you stay close to me I know I am safe
Shining in our hearts there is love

Holding hands together we shall make miracles
Completing God’s will under his eyes
With the love and strength that God has given us
Nothing can break us apart

Nothing can break us apart

i still need to refine it and get Angie to sing it, then i'll upload it here. not everyone might like this song cuz..it sounds like some praise and worship song or some church hymns..wat to do..i'm exposed to all these songs now...

Boris Haug

2008-03-23T23:53:00.003+08:00

today..we celebrated Angie's dad's bday. Dominic brought Boris, a violin maker and i sat beside him and had a good chat with him. i sat beside him the whole night and talked to him about violin, music, food, Italy, churches , sports..bla bla.. he's nice to talk to. i love talking to him..he also promised to carved my name on my violin for me the next time i meet him. :)

Easter Vigil

2008-03-23T14:50:00.010+08:00

last nite, we celebrated midnight mass as usual. Easter Vigil. there were around 24 ppl baptized last nite. so happy to see them. it started at... 10.30pm and ended around 1.30am.

we started the mass in complete darkness. musicians have to use torchlights to look at the scores... uncle Dominic sang very well for the 'Exulted'. sooo nice. i love him.. he's like my 2nd dad to me....

the first hmyn was 'Come to the river'. i love that the most!! i played violin for that with one of the twins. i love 'parched lands' too which i played the violin and one of the twins played the flute. it was beautiful!!!

me and one of the twins playing violin..

me on tambourines..damn fun lo....
me playing the casaba.
the musicians....
dominic is the one in red..i love him!!!!!!
harold on the harmonica.

i'd like to thank Dominic for giving me a chance to play violin during Easter, and not the organ.

i'd like to thank Christopher Andrew..the fur ball for being my camera-man , and to help my mom taking care of my bro, and to borrow his laps to my bro so that my bro can sleep during mass, and also to help me dad in carrying his guitars

I love being a catholic. and i'm proud to be a catholic.

HAPPY EASTER

JADE rosin

2008-03-22T16:47:00.005+08:00

enough bout violins. let's look at rosins.

i jus bought this rosin recently. it's amazing. it's called JADE rosin cuz it's in Green i think..most rosin are in yellow but not this.

the rosin.

it's good. seriously good. when i put it on my own Hoffman bow, which the hair was already ruined and was helpless...it restored my bow to life. SERIOUS. i'm not kidding. it's so soft. it's a soft rosin. very soft indeed.

it can be used on violins, violas and cellos.

although it's a little expensive but, it's worth it.

Highly recommended by me. but of cuz..dun try this jus for a cheap china bow la..it's not really that worth it then..if ur using a cheap beginner bow.. then.. any rosin would be sufficient.

Estimated Price : about..RM 51

Karl Hofner Master Violin

2008-03-22T16:21:00.005+08:00

This, is a Hofner. but, not the China Hofner u find in Bentley Music or anywhere. This is a Master Violin, made by Karl Hofner himself. HANDMADE.

History :
Karl Hofner himself handed this violin to my teacher and asked him, 'do u want to buy this?' my teacher tried and bought this instantly. This is a Master violin. made in Germany.

The Hofner violin.
the Back.

the pegs.
the inside. ( click to enlarge so tat u'll hv a better view of it)
Comments :
1. superb. sounds like the Otto Joser Klier violin which i fell in love with. til then, this was the one who manage to attract and catch my attention to look at it for more than one minute.
2. the G string is warm but, not as warm as the Jan Kubek.
3. The E string is perfect for me as it is not too sharp and loud. i would say...it carries a little essence of mellow sound in the E string.
4. high register is perfect. it is sharp and loud and clear at 7th position
5. BUT i feel..it dosent sound woody enough. maybe i shall try Evah strings on it. I still prefer a more woody violin which doesnt contain abit of metal sound.
6. the touch. this is wonderful. i've nvr tried on such soft, silk-like touch before. when i first picked it up and play. i felt absolutely no pressure, no strenght needed at all to play this. it fitted perfectly under my chin. the size, the weight..everything suited me. i felt like..this is the one. i hv been searching for u, and u've been waiting for me. waiting for me to pick u up and bring u home. i tell u...this is wonderful.

Estimated Price : RM15,000 - RM17,000

Jan Kubek

2008-03-22T16:08:00.009+08:00

today,i tried out a Jan Kubek violin. i din jot which model it was. i'll update it here when i get to see it again.

The Jan Kubek violin.

the pegs are nice. i did not try the pegs. so, i cant comment on them.

the back of the violin... it's a one piece.

the inside of it....

Comments :
1. the G, D , A strings are warm and full. it's much more fuller than the Hofner violin. i love it alot especially the G string. Just little vibrato and u can make ppl cry. it's very warm and mellow.

2. the E string is abit too sharp for me. I still prefer Hofner's E string. or..maybe it's the strings that makes the difference. the Dominant strings on Hofner suits my taste more. The E string is so sharp and rough tat makes me dun feel like playing on it's open string at all. this can force me to use my 4th finger. the strings used are warchal strings. very very high quality strings.

3. the touch is nice. soft. but, i still prefer Hofner's touch.

Overall: it'll be under my consideration list. Hofner will still appear as first now until i try Dominant strings on this Jan Kubek violin.

Estimated Price : RM 21,000 - 25,000

i was the organist today. and GUESS WAT!!!!!!!! i know i'm playing today but somehow my brain din thought of checking the list of songs for the day. i went to church early. i was wasting time, talking..bla bla....... THEN !!! station of the cross was going to start d... then i realized...ONLY THEN i realized i dunno wat are the songs for the day!!! walau....i tell u...i was sooooo 慌张 !!!!!! my gosh..i got a fright of my life !!!!!!! i searched high and low, asked ppl after ppl for the list, compare and check , and then finalize the list...yor..i cant believe i manage to sort out the list in a few mins. hahhhaha..now, i'm even more confident..i'll be even 'last minute' then ever after the incident today.

during the station of cross..we stand and kneel, stand and kneel for..at least 14 times. as usual, i cant kneel one maaaaa..my knee pain like hell!!! i pain until i want to cry, pain til i wanna faint. pain til i wanna vomit!! it's super pain!!! the pain ...it's undescribeable....how the bones of my knees jut out and touches the floor...arrrggghhhhhhh...i dun want to think bout it and imagine it again..it's soooo damn pain! i end up sitting.
later, during the prayer, we have to stand-kneel, stand-kneel again. AGAIN. this time, i stood in front of a pillar, trying to block myself so that ppl wont notice i'm jus standing all the way thru the prayer....

youths presentation was great today. i felt soooo happy and waited for the presentation cuz i'll be playing the violin and not that boring organ........... after we sang, i was waiting for claps!!! hahhaha..then i realized..we're in church, not doing a performance.. hhaha..can u believe it? waiting for claps. why nobody clap one???? hahhahaha...tat's why i love performances.....

during the veneration of the cross for the congregation was a DISASTER!!!!! u know why?? cuz...the list of songs were all jumble up!! and, a hymn just suddenly appeared from nowhere and i hv no idea how it's like cuz i've nvr ever played that b4, and Dominic was saying 'Start, eli!! start!!' i was thinking ' can u gimme a min to figure out how this song is like??' but he pushed me to start. i was like..walau... dun care la..simply play. i sit down and simply played an introduction for the song and it MATCHES!!! SEE! next time..i can be even more 'last min' cuz things will sure run well no matter how 'last min' i am in. :)

haihh..so..this was wat happened on Good Friday... the sad friday.

.................................................................................

i hv this inspiration..to write this story to u, my frens..

once upon a time, Prince Ferrero and Princess Violet were a lovely couple. They love each other deeply but..they're forbidden to be together because they were from different tribes in the woods. they were forced to leave each other..

one day, Prince Victor came and court Princess Violet. He managed to get her for she find him adorable and cute. Meanwhile...her heart was still with Prince Ferrero. They still love each other deeply but they cannot be together unless she leaves her tribe and convert to Prince Ferrero's tribe. But, if she does this, she'll make her dad go mad. so, they can only love each other secretly......

then, came one day when Prince Ferrero told her his unhappiness seeing her and Prince Victor together. So, she left Prince Victor. She left him for Prince Ferrero. He has snatched Prince Victor's lover away.

Things ran well and smoothly until one day............................................

Princess Violet's tribe were having an annual celebration and she met Prince Charles. it was love at first sight when she met him................................................................

will she leave Prince Ferrero? Will she stay by Prince Ferrero's side? wat will the ending be?

look out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for the ending...

soon.

more choices means better??

2008-03-13T22:57:00.003+08:00

hey guys.. it's me in my sentimental mood again... yeah Meng Jin, i'm emo again and u cant make me feel better cuz ur also another emo... hhhhaha...

Many a times we heard from ppl..maybe parents, or frens, or teachers saying that, get urself more choices.. open your options..so, u can choose wat u want easier.Read the below sentences..do u feel some familiarity?
1. ah gal..study hard, so u can hv more choices in the future
2. do not shut ur options..give urself more choices to choose from
3. if u dun study hard, u wont have many choices, and u'll regret..

CHOICES

is it really that important?? so.. more choices means better? i dun tink so...

do u know how many years i've spent, just to choose among all the choices i hv in life?? i've spent 4 years...... jus to choose between music and engineering. wat happened in the end? i'm middle of nowhere. i've geared towards music during my sec skol, esp form 4 and 5. i put tons of hard work in music. then..i plan to go Sedaya College after Form 5 and take me diploma test. after form 5, my dad forced me into engineering. i cancelled my diploma test, cancelled all my piano classes. not to mention my violin class..i've stopped since form 4 cuz my dad doesn't want me to get involved with music and fall even deeply in love for it. so..last year..whole year was just maths, calculus, trigo and physics.. i barely touched my piano cuz i dun want to get hurt. i tried to delete from my mind that i've learned piano be4..tat i know how to play violin.. but i cant... now, after my Pre -u for engineering, my dad wants me to study music... after sooo many years..i still wander back to music....

now, in music..which do i choose to major?? piano? violin? soprano? performing arts? which????? do u know how stressful i felt? a sudden change from engineering to music made me learn and memorized 5 pieces in 1 months time. now, a sudden change from piano to violin forced me to finish one grade by one month...do u know how taxing it is? i've stop learning violin for sooo many years, suddenly when i pick it up again, i hv to learn one grade per month and go for audition. so..u call this good? more choices means good?? wat will happen next? training my soprano singing 2 grades per month so that i can rush for audition?? wat's all these??!!!!

this is alot of choices. i hv lots of choices in life..but, am i happy? no... i'm jus rushing here and there aimlessly, not able to decide wat i want but jus to rush for auditions and get all the offers i want, and then sit down, and mini miny um, and choose which shud i go... so many offers means good? no...it's not... so many choices means it's better?? no...it's not at all...

--------------------------------------------------

my dear frens..if u were given a choice..
A. someone whom can bring u happiness and ensure ur days are always happy

B. Someone whom u love, and he loves u too but u know u'll meet lots of obstacles, and life will not be that easy

which will u choose?? this is also a choice.

choices in life..is it really tat important? every choice we make, every step we take, wil change our future little by little, without our realization. it changes our lives every sec. but, did we realize it? maybe yes...but for me..i dunno.

if given a choice, i'll choose to leave everything, carry my violin on my back ......and climb the stairways to Heaven..................
