a lot of things
Firstly a Newly opened 7Eleven near my hdb... a bit shocking cause never see it b4... I mean they are always clear glass walls
and happy cause easy access to MASH POTATOES! hahaha

they sold quite a lot of things.. from normal what u find in 7eleven (tibits drinks etc) to oil, detergents, flour etc .. haha more like a provision shop. OH YA! and a lot of WINNIE THE POOHS ..
My mother ask me quickly go there apply to work part time hahaha.. maybe i shd really consider..
Next up... Jap first lesson sat 25 oct.. It is simple to learn and not that bad but quite a bit of homework to do.. simply said is like primary sch teaching style with people range from age 17 to 40+???
Then.. this 3 days (sat to mon) my parents went to genting (jus came back)...
So I played and watch animes every minutes i can afford ahhaha... an unhealthy 3 days
1. Game
I played Kiniro no Corda (Japanese)... A musical + dating sims PC game .. although it is said dating sims, there is no dating around at all.. jus that the guys will like u more and walk u home ocassionally or smile more...
I was expecting more.. at least an ending with the guy that has the highest affection will do.. but well .. THERE IS NOTHING! Jus Lili (the fairy) saying thanks and no more... T.T
But having said that, I repeated playing at least 4 times ... each time around 5-6 hours?? so.. hahha ..... well i did sleep 6 hours a day (6am -12 noon) but it seems like I forgot to eat breakfast and lunch... only 1 meal a day
But it is not like a am dieting or what .. also, i did not get lighter at all...
2. Anime
After playing the games ~ 4 times, I got fired up and try to rewatched the anime ep1-25 + 1 sp.. at one go... yesterday... 1 am to 530am... and announce defeat from being too sleepy at ep22..
I remembered wanting to learn violin after watching the anime .. haha but my mother dont allow and I joined NP strings but one day only i quit cause too shocked + shy at the terrible sound that came out of my violin.. while everyone else's sound so good.. Weak determinations sia.. Also, I have to hide from my mother that I joined + cannot buy personal violin etc.. Dont like it at all... Like very tiring...
I still wanna learn violin individually though.. hmm.. maybe nid still wait a few years more until i earn my own money (But i a bit too old liao by then) or at least after graduating from my jap
then continue after wake up... + some weekly animes =P
Well, I did practice my piano too..
WHY DID I STOP PLAYING PIANO??
Well... Long story.. for those interested, read on....
Teacher's fault =>
At first i learn at Yamaha, but apparently, communication problem with the teacher so... one month only stop liao..
When learning private, the teacher is super busy with her 5 years old (?) daughter + her Uni (? or some studying) ... Initially (2-3 months) still ok.. no change in timetable except she sometimes late...
then after that my timetable keep jumping here and there.. from every thur 4pm (Last time sec sch end at 330pm.. 5 mins walk home, change, 15mins walk to her house) to any day of the week... and
1.sometimes 2 days a week (can be sat and sun together... I end up too stress as it is like never even get to practice at all)..
2.there are even times when she teach 2 people at one time (she got 2 pianos at different room.. but it is not like her rooms are sound proof, almost all her students smaller than 10years old)
3.Also, she always walk around to do her own stuff while she ask u to play for her to hear..
4.Because she knows that I got electrical keyboard background for like 3-4 years, she skipped a lot of basics (So very hard to handle -> stress, due to that until now, my left hand still not good at all.. cannot curl properly)
She is not a bad teacher but the timetable jus make me find that it is a task to play/learn piano rather than an enjoyable thing...
My own fault => (of course my mother didnt know)
After the changing of timetables repeatedly, I got "bored" of piano and didnt wanna practice, always before lesson 10mins then I will look at the score and play on my keyboard (haven get piano yet)
and then because I only practice 10mins, I of course cant be any good.. although can pass and end up getting lots of bad comments (though she did not scold me)... This goes on for a few months..
then I start to "run" away from piano lessons. at first is unwilling to ring the doorbell.. I will always stand near the lift area 10mins before I decide to in..
then, I start to skip lessons informing last mins (eg 4 times a week only go 2 times)... make the timetable even worse cause lots of makeups
So I missed without informing (no makeups)... and then due to accumulated stress, dont know since when, my hands start to tremble a lot when I play in front of her -> when I play at home (worsen).. I get nervous and wanna vomit even when I play to myself at home... I got scare even talking to her (this is also the start of me afraid of presentations and teachers/anyone superior- like apt manager)
At first is wanna quit right after grade 3 exams (my mother still dont know) but have to wait to get my cert first...
During that period she told me that I wont be taking grade 4 exams but directly to grade 5 -> extra stress... I mean I am not genius (at least I dont think I am), how to take grade 5 when I only learnt piano for barely one year+ ... she always rush at me taking exams (I also skipped grade 1).. yet she is still giving me grade 1 books to practice..
practicing grade 1 book and exam grade 5 ?! imagine how stress i am (and that time is sec 2 EOY exams + 3 tuitions + CCAs)
After dragging for a few months, I quit... (I even missed 4 lessons before quiting with an sms.. I think to her I am quite a problematic kid haha)
haha.. then after quiting, I didnt touch my piano for like half a year cause trembling did not stop.. my mother even wanna sell it away.. then I ocassionally play ... until recently almost completely stop trembling then i played more...
I still remember me trembling when I tried playing one of the piano at bukit timah plaza (TA06 KFC outing) and wei hao say no nid so nervous... lol
And the reason that my mother tot I stop learning piano is that I got no determination, cause she asked me to go learn again for a few times (of course I refused).. So now I wanna learn what (violin) she also feel that I wont complete it (Me completing the jap lessons now are crucial to gain my mother trust back).. and that it is useless..
Hahah used a lot of "then"...
