My husband rang me this morning from his office and said the campus has been closed due to last night’s hail. According to his description, the scenes look pretty bad. Roads flooded, most of trees damaged and if there is any left, they keep falling down, Canberra High’s roofs collapsed, ice and snow still seen [...]

My colleague was nice to me. She bought a bag of pumpkins on the highway from Bega to Queanbeyan. She lives down there, so she travels a lot and normally she would get up at 4am in the morning and drive 2-3 hours to here. Anyway, she is a lovely lady, funny, has big sense [...]

I knew it!!!!! As long as in relations to ID photos, my husband would never trust a photographer from an ordinary shop. He always wants to do it himself. No, not himself, it will be me. I will be the one who’s going to take the photo for his passport or etc. Wow! That makes [...]

雅雅都八级了!我的钢琴水平却越来越次,好惭愧!最近忙着织毛衣,可能手被占着,不太想着弹钢琴这回事了。不过这两天我又去Popiano下载了一些谱子,练琴的劲头儿又回来了。周末花了几个小时练琴,胡乱练。不过练练,手就好些了。 目 前练习的曲子是《Legend of 1900》里面我最喜欢的Solo Piano曲子《Playing Love》。就是他在录音时铉窗中看到女孩走过时即兴发挥的那一段。我好不容易才找到的谱子,还是老公用BT下载的。Popiano上可没有这首。其实 《Crisis》这首也不错,但是从技巧上没有什么空间罢了,两三遍就可以搞会了。原声录音这首后半部分是加了管弦乐队的伴奏的,纯钢琴稍微单薄了一些。 不过Playing Love就很有练头了。 开始以为开始一段乱奏比较困难,练了十遍八遍就有感觉了,没有什么大不了的,琴就是要艰苦练出来。天才100遍,蠢蛋练500遍就是了。只要你肯练,没有练不会的东西。所以我老说:练琴其实是非常考验人的毅力和勤奋精神的。
