Whee! I had my piano lesson today unline other weeks because Mr Quek wanted me to try out the pieces on the grand piano. SO, i woke up early to catch the bus with my sis and went all the way from pine grove to peace centre. my sis was nyeh nyehing and gablahing about how i was going the wrong way when CLEARLY i had gotten it right. she followed me of course and we reached his house soon enough. i should have let her go off on her own... so fun for her to get lost. would teach her that i have actually been there afew times already.

When we reached there i was more than an hour early so i started practising on the grand piano first. mr queks other student unfortunately had to use the atlantis which was not as wierd, but also not as cool. Sis and I settled for a game of chess on his marble chess set. some people are soooo rich. Since sis learnt how to play yesterday while i am a chess idiot, she had to guide me throughout.

Mr quek finished teaching the other student in the middle of our game so we had to stop. sis went on to read the pile of magazines while i banged away and complained that the piece was too hard. actually, it wasn't, it just made my hands sore. Fur elise today.

Once the practical part was done we went on to talk about the composers again. Today was um, schumann. Since my sis was present we talked again about the baroque period and freaked my sis out with the powder and bathing stuff. Mr quek played some pieces on the CD player tfor us to listen. in the end, the lesson ended 20mins later. He let us continue playing with his chess set until, i'm glad to say, i won my sister. Maybe it's from playing chinese chess. Anyway, my sis lost her first game of chess and i won my first game of chess. it has put a very smug smile on my face.

We left the house to find my mom waiting for us in the car so we immediately hopped in and got ready to go. Mom still has a sore throat. Sis got to choose the place for lunch this round and well, it was NYDC.

Hmmm... i had a baked hawaian pasta with an irish cream mudpie. Superb. Sis planned to shop, but since i wasn't going to do anything remotely near that, she decided to abandon the idea and come home with my mom and i. Whee. such fun.

Just finished watching the air up there, starring kavin bacon who also did the river wild and murder in the first. good actor, good shows.

This ends my super long post, gnite!
