Christmas in Midv!

During Christmas, which is the exact date of 25th of Dec. My family and I went to midvalley just to celebrate christmas together in a "modern" way. Lol. We actually stopped and parked at "The Gardens". Cause my dad says that Midv is fully parked. We went around 7 and arrive there at 730. We took some pics and we really had fun together as a family. =).. Christmas is not all about gifts, shopping, hugs and kisses and etc etc. Christmas is about celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. (just to let u all know, that word "Christ" is not His surname. It actually means Saviour or something like that) To celebrate this love that is amazing and also this love who have saved lives. So anyway, lets see some pics shall we??

My mum & I


Daddy & Mummy.. So cute right? hehe..

From the left, Rino, Romeo, Mummy and Me..

Rino & Mummy

Mummy & I

We went to a restaurant call(look at the pic).. To have dinner..

We had Spicy Chicken Pie.. Wanna look at the inside??

There u go... It was absolutely delicious..!

Rino's Fried Rice.. It was good.. I mean.. Who could go wrong with fried rice??

Know why he is pinching/holding/touching is mouth?? Coz it was too good that his saliva came out.. Ooooppss.. =P...

This is my dad's Shang Hai Mee.. My mum tried it, and she couldn't stop eating.. How do you judge that??

Romeo's Chicken Chop Rice with Black Pepper sauce. The chicken was nice, really smooth and easy to cut. It's just that, the sauce was a bit too much. Oh well, at least my bro enjoyed it..

Now.. This is my Chicken Chop Rice Marinated with Thai Sauce.. It was really delicious. But it little too sweet & sour for my taste... I'll give 3 stars.. haha!

This is me and my mum's absolute favourite.. Laksa! It was kinda sad becoz, at 1st it tasted okay. And then the more you eat it. It just taste like the quality of the keeps decreasing and decreasing.. Get what I mean??

And then my brothers and I went to the pet shop with my dad..

Aren't these kitties cute?? But too bad, I dont like cats. Kitties eventually grow into cats.. so their the same...

Oh ya! You like to pose eh?? I can do it better than you! Lol!

Im actually not suppose to take pics of the birds. But since I do it without flash. I guess its okay.. Ehehehehe...

Found some corals that they sell there.. They were really pretty.. Man... God is truly amazing..





HAMSTERS! Nah, i'm not a fan BIG of hamsters.. My youngest bro Rino IS A BIG FAN of hamsters... Haha! He was like "HAMSTERS HAMSTERS!! My friends my friends!!".. Me and Romeo's reaction was.."-.-"...

When we are abt to head home.. We took some pics "next" to the HUGE christmas tree..Haha

LIITA in Puchong Cell!!!

Hey guys, sorry for the late update! =(.. On the 19th of dec. My cell was holding a christmas party. And the theme of the party is "Love Is In The Air". It was such an amazing event. Where God really just took over and to be honest. I can really sense is love there. There were abt 3 souls saved! I shall name them, Matthew, Danly and Jun Ming. I am just so proud of them and just so thankful to God! Amen! On that night itself, there were lots of tears and lots of emotions splurgging OUT! Thanks to Jason Lim(my church leader) for setting the mood right. Haha! =D.. At the same time, God was there and He was watching and spreading His presence all around the place. I'm just really thankful and really amazed and overwhelmed by God's power & grace. I was kinda stressed at 1st. Thinking whether is everything going to be alright. In the middle of everything, I almost wanted to doubt that God is going to help me. Which is SO WRONG of me to think like that..! Coz God was there and He helped me a lot. By the help of my parent's(love you both=3).. my leaders, Sarah, shelton, romeo, rino, timothy, christopher(you guys are more than leaders to me) and the pianist, James(thank U man) and everyone else who came for this amazing event. It couldn't have happened if it wasn't for all of you. And thank you to all the cell members who have taken the effort to invite some friends. I really appreciate all your hardwork. Good job guys! =).. You guys have really outdone yourself. I believe that this is just the beginning of everything. 2008 is ending but 2009 is just going start! So, be even more hungryier and thristier for God's presence, love and power! I took a few pics here when Jason came and shared. (so sorry yea, didn't have time to take them earlier =(..)





See that BIG guy over there in white. He is Jason.. haha! He is full with love, thats why we love him.. *winks*

Lost

Three days ago, I was enjoying playing maple and everything. Until when I saw it was 10pm. Then I realized that someone isn't home yet. Then my dad called out to me. "Girl, mumy is not home yet.. where could she be??" I was really shocked and was feeling really really uneasy about it. So I asked,

Me: Have you tried calling her??
Dad: Yea I have, but she didn't answer my call at all..
Me: How come?? Hmmm... Let me try calling her.. *calling mum*
Me: Daddy, she didn't answer my call either
Dad: Okay, I think we should go look for her..
My Brothers: Jie, you stay here just in case mummy comes home.. We go and look for her with daddy
Me: Okay..

After that, I called and called but she didn't answer her phone at all. I started getting really really worried. And prayed to God, I said God, pls have mercy on my mum and bring her back home.(btw, my mum never comes home past 930-ish..) I continue calling her, but there was no answer. That was when I started losing hope. I cried and cried, thinking of the worse things that could happen to her. But at the same time, I keep reminding myself that I should have FAITH. Then I thought maybe I should call my aunt. I called for like three times. But I guess she was busy talking with someone else. I got really pissed and started calling my dad if theres any sign of her. Unfortunately he said No. I kept praying and praying. And then, my aunt called me back. She asked me what happened? I was still really pissed at the moment. So i asked her,

Me: Do you know where mummy went??
Aunt: Mummy??? Aiyo! She's over here chatting with me and another aunty..
Me: WHATTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!! RAAWWRRR!!!!!! WHY SHE DIDN'T PICK UP HER PHONE???!!!!!!
Aunt: She said she left her phone in her car ma...
Me: YOU TELL HER THAT EVERYONE IS VERY VERY WORRIED ABOUT HER!!! COULDN'T SHE AT LEAST CALL BACK AND TELL US THAT SHE IS WITH YOU??!!!!! WHAT KIND OF MUM IS THIS THAT LETS HER CHILDREN WORRY ABOUT HER????!!!!
Aunt: Aiyo... now don't scold la.. Later she comes back only you all scold her la k????
Me: OKOOKK...

So you see, if you have a phone. Be sure to bring it with you. Coz somebody important might be looking for you. So pls, don't be like my mum -.-"... Anyway, gtg now... CHoaz!!!!

P.S: Praise be to God!

A new song call "It's Over" by Jesse Mccartney.. Very nice! Yeah man.. it's over! And he is HOTttt!! *DRROOLINNGG* =P

Feelings from Deep Inside

How do I start this? Hmmm... I've never really liked competitions and comparerism and all those you know. Ever since I was young and started playing the piano. My aunties and my parent's always compare me with my cousins. But always at the end of the day they say that I'm the best. I know it seems like I'm boasting over here. But thats not the point. I never liked it ever since I was young that my parent's and everyone around me compare here and there. Plus, if you say that I'm the best or maybe somebody else is the best. Someone else is always better than everybody. And now what?? Does your comments of who's better than who matter anymore? To be honest, when I was young. At between 9-12 years old. I kept comparing myself with others. Coz thats always just the thing that my parent's do. Comparing here and there.

Saying that this is not enough that is not enough. So I ended up doing the same thing with myself. Comparing with others on how well they can play the piano. Funny how thats the only thing that I compare with. Coz theres nothing else that I love than the piano you see. (God is not counted kays? coz He's more special) When I kept comparing I felt more and more tired. And more and more frustated with myself. Sometimes when comparing I criticize others. Let's just say that I'm being extremely self-centered and selfish. Comparing to the point where I don't even bother anymore. As I grew up, I learn by myself that comparing is really really a BAD BAD thing. It hurts me hard and it hurts others as well. The one thing that I've learned is to beat myself at the game. In other words, to improve myself everytime. Where does the insipiration come from? Simple, God and to see others play. Nowadays, watching others play isn't some kind of threat to me anymore. Instead, its a learning process for me. Seeing how they play, the way their fingers work. Definitely inspires me bit by bit. And it definitely helps me to improve more. Sometimes critisism helps too. When my teacher says this and that. Sometimes it does intimadate me and I really do ask myself sometimes "am I that bad?".

But it really helps me to improve until I put a smile on my teacher's face. Whenever I start comparing again. I tell myself all the time. Beat yourself at the game. God didn't give me this gift to hurt myself or to hurt others. Its a gift to share with others and to share the love. Another thing is, competitions. I never see whats the point of going for musical competitions. For me, its a way of boasting yourself, shouting out loud and telling others how good you are this and that. But in other words, its also to prove how good you are to yourself and to others. But I seriously don't encourage going into musical competitions. But its good if you want to improve yourself or something. Coz the process of those competitions are hardcore. One can seriously grow a lot from participating. Exams exams exams. One of the things I hate most when I was young. But now for me, its a way to see how well I can do. Definitely right now, I like exams. Not to say that I'm crazy about exams. I do stress about it a lot at times. But at the end I learn more and gain more. The results sometimes, could be agony. You'll be worrying about how well you get like crazy. I remember when I was 11. It was my grade 2 piano exam. I went in telling myself "its just another exam, play like how you would play it". Thats how I'll keep telling myself everytime my teacher ask me to play. During the process of preparing for exams. It definitely improves the way that I play. Playing with satistaction is what I do every practice. I really don't mind playing for hours and hours non stop. Coz its what I enjoy. Even though my pinky(my last finger). Would hurt a lot. I'll just stop for 5 mins and continue again. My pinky is always a problem when I practice. Its so short and small. But, that just means that I need to practice more right? I really love playing the piano. Not playing it for 4 years really gives me a fear for touching it again. But now that I've overcome it, I appreciate what I have now more and more. Thank You God so much.











"I play not just because I love it, but because of a passion"

Randoms

Hey, come here..

Let me tell you a secreT...

I DON'T LIKE YOU!!

Haha.. just feeling random..=P.. Sorry if it hurts or offends anyone...

Piano Pieces

My cccrraaazzzzyyyyy piano teacher gave me 3 piano pieces to practice during the holidays and also to play it for him. One of it is my exam piece. Well, at least thats excusable. The other two is my assignment from him. Grrrr.... If he isn't such a good teacher. I would KILL HIM already! One of it is call "The Maiden's Prayer". The other one is "Etude Op.10 no.12" by Federick Chopin. Actually at 1st, I'm only assigned to practice 2 pieces. But when I asked him...

Me: Teacher, do you know how to play Etude Op.10 no.12 by Chopin?
Teahcer: *playing like theres no tmw*
Me: wow..O.O.. got the piece or not??
Teacher: Got.. wait ar.. let me find it for you... *searching searching*.. FOUND IT!
Me: waa... cool!!
Teacher: Since you have nothing much to do during the holidays.. Play this one also la.. This will be a little bit hard for you right now... I think at the end you'll surrender 1 la..
Me: WHAT!!! RAWR!!! don't look down on me la teacher..
Teacher: OK lo... so go home and practice 3 pieces k k??
Me:................................. Oh....


Me and my BIG mouth! Haihz... Oh well, guess I need to get fingers moving and cracking right now..

Let's look at "The Maiden's Prayer".. Shall we??

Like everyone who plays musical instruments would tell you that you should play like your telling a story. And to also know how the composer wants you to play the piece. Well, this is my view of the "story" of this piece. Hmmmm.. A beautiful maiden who is trapped in a beautiful house. With too much money to splurge on. And too many luxurious things that she owns. But still, she felt empty. So she make a prayer. To find love. And let it come back to her sooner or later. Or perhaps one day she would like a change in her life. Where her richful life right now, is just too dull and boring for her.

Yea, I guess thats it. Haha.. I mean, when I hear my teacher playing it. It kinda sounds like so.. Heh heh...

The next piece.."Etude Op.10 No.12"

"Etude Op.10 No.12" by Chopin.

I'm seriously telling you that THIS IS NOT AN EASY piece AT ALL! In fact, its very hard! For me, this piece means pain. Coz when Chopin compose this piece. He was very very ill. So he compose this piece to show how much pain he was in. In another words, express his pain through this piece.

I think looking from the pics you'll already know how hard it would be.. try watching the video and listening to the song.
