i'm with you all the way

Wilkommen

Aufsteigende Flügel is German for "Soaring Wings", a beautiful piano piece composed by Masashi Hamauzu. It is a retreat, a place for me to speak my mind, my thoughts, and my ideas. I bid you all welcome and please, enjoy your stay while you can.

In case you're wondering, the song you hear playing in the background is called Memories, composed and performed by Kow Otani for the best PS2 game of all time, Shadow of the Colossus. This was one of the many unused tracks from the game, so I thought I might do it justice playing this lovely track here. It may take a while to load, but please pause it and give it a good listen. Otani makes good music (unfortunately, this is the only one I know of), and this is one of them. Enjoy!

How would this sound in piano?



If I have the time, I'd like to do a piano arrangement on this lovely tune. =]

Someone Came Back

I can't remember the first time we chatted, but I remember it was a fun chat. I taught Aiman how to play Blue Moon the other day (it's a duet on a piano), and then we were all talking about it. Russell is a really fun guy~ XD And it was weird, I mean, it's been a really long time since I've met someone who played the piano and talked to me about it. And for once, he's not the kind that plays all the pop songs and all. Aaaah, such pretty songs he has with him~

And yesh, I'm currently getting hooked up with Gottschalk. 20th Century period kind of songs (i hate 'em terribly, coz they sounded horrible when I played it for sight-reading, but they're easy to spot when it comes to oral/aural test, since they sounded awfully weird~), and it's not too bad for the kind of songs I used to despise. Very hype and cheerful!

But my heart leans more to the Classical, Romantic, and Baroque(sp?) period~

Anyway, Russell came back from Brisbane today! Aiman and I went to fetch him from KL Sentral, and it was there that I first set my eyes on him~ My first impression, like, I suppose, most people would have, can be easily compared to this:-

O__________O

WOW

He stands out. A LOT.

But yea, that was awesome~! I simply have to commend for his confidence to step out like that! XD

The journey back to Sri Hartamas was...a rather surprising one. I've never seen such ridiculous conversations...O____O...BUT LOL~!! XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD It was fun!

Then we went to Devi's and had breakfast there. He was craving for
our Malaysian hand-made roti canai~ Heck, at least that's something I can be proud about~ =P Then the three of us started talking about bell miners (it's a bird, people, not exactly A bell miner, which, I doubt they existed), fruit bats, vampire bats, the weather, puddles, cats, periodic table, their school friends (which i just listened in), and lots more...O__O...I can't think of any, but we stayed there at Devi's for quite a while. I remembered Aiman having trouble with the whole naming thing like the issue about the bats and the names of the animals and why they were named in such a way~ I thought this was interesting.

And a waste of time, but heck~ XD It was fun~ XD

It was nearing 10am, and then we were off to his place to drop his stuff. AND THERE WAS A PIANO! =D Aiman went off to show his skills at Blue Moon and the new duet song I taught him and we were both there just trying to impress him, lol~ XDDD We stayed there a while (and I managed to get away from the whole issue of buying my brother's schoolbooks and all~ XD) and just went on talking for hours until the rain stopped.

We then headed off to Aiman's place for him to grab some stuff (he had to go back to Putrajaya today =( KL seems to be in some kind of trouble, I heard~) before we left for The Curve. We had lunch at Itallianies~ XDDDDD (yes~~~ Itallianies...and the evil evil Napoli Bianco Pizza~). And then, it was doughnuts for all of us! =D

Sadly, we had to leave The Curve.

Aiman dropped me off first and made Russell guard the car~ XD And then, there was a series of up-and-down in the lift, just for the fun of it aaaaaand...well, to just do the things we always do. =P You get the drift~

Lol, the whole outing today motivated me to start studying...and to top it all up, I started off with the worst subject I could possibly think of:

STATISTICS

Yes. My worst subject. But I was pumped! And I was determined enough to finish my short notes on Stats before moving on to anything else. Besides, my first exam IS statistics. =(

But after three whole hours of working on my notes (I have 8 chapters to do, but I've done half, and I'm planning to do the other half tomorrow), I find that it was actually not that bad. In fact, Statistics was actually very easy. Well, that's just the first part.

I haven't covered the Probability chapters yet.

*cries*

Sucks to Stats. I loathe you forevermore.
