no one ever said it would be this hard.
this car was parked next to ours at orchard hotel last night (which is where i had my dinner aren't you all jealous now :P). my parents don't think it's hot. do you? i do. hurr. of course, at 460k (for the CLK55 AMG version) incl. COE, it's quite out of budget hurr. monthly installments of 6k? crazy. anyway.
dinner last night was good. filling. haha. had lots and lots of seafood, which was probably the only thing good there. oysters, drunken prawns, barbecued tiger prawns (which were actually kinda dry and poorly done).. yeah. actually the selection was quite lousy.. looks more targeted to foreigners who want to try local cuisine (since there were indian, malay and chinese sections, and the western section only had baked potatoes..) rather than for locals who want to eat well. but it was a good, filling meal. and they had decent ice-cream (movenpick). of course i didn't bother to look at the price-tag hurr.
haven't done much these couple of days. have been trying to keep regular hours (but i'm failing to today cuz i MUSTmustMust finish my summation tutorial for tmr's lesson), and sadly i can't seem to study in the afternoon, and only reaching late at night do i truly get "awake". oh well. maybe i'm fated to be a nocturnal creature. rarr.
played close to 2hrs of piano today. which really surprised me. cuz i can't usually stay on it for more than an hour. i never realised how beautiful fur elise was until recently.. it really gives you a lot of leeway with expression (well it does say poco moto :P), which is what i really like, rather than some piece with superstrict tempo. and the tune is just plain beautiful larh. heh. i think i'll keep all the fast and crazily exciting songs on hold for the moment since i can't seem to get my technique right (i tend to lock my arm which makes it really really tiring to play ><), and besides emo pieces are more my forte anyway (oh well what to do haha).
hurr what else what else..
i feel like taking a course on drums in the dec hols. not all the fake vocal percussion stuff (heh) but the real drum set drums. just for exposure rather than anything else. or maybe i should get a job instead. haha. but that's really thinking too far ahead. promos in 23 days. shucks. go me.
The Scientist - Coldplay
Come up to meet you,
Tell you I'm sorry,
You don't know how lovely you are.
I had to find you,
Tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart.
Tell me your secrets,
And ask me your questions,
Oh let's go back to the start.
Runnin' in circles,
Comin' up tails,
Heads on the science apart.
Nobody said it was easy,
It's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be this hard.
Oh take me back to the start.
I was just guessin',
At numbers and figures,
Pullin' the puzzles apart.
Questions of science,
Science and progress,
Do not speak as loud as my heart.
Tell me you love me,
Come back and haunt me,
Oh on I rush to the start.
Runnin' in circles,
Chasin' up tails,
Comin' back as we are.
Nobody said it was easy,
Oh it's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be so hard.
I'm goin' back to the start.
