Is playing on the piano with two hands brilliant?
To me, playing piano meant playing with two hands~
Its equivalent to this analogy.
"When using chopsticks, you must use a pair."

I was surprised to hear my friends playing piano lamenting that it was difficult to play with both hands. Infact difficulties only sink in when you have to spread your fingers wide across over 8-10 notes while using 4 to 5 of them. Or, when you want a perfect song. Some beginners could have started off from some children classics or easy playing and you'll never go wrong.


im too lazy.
Have quite a number of scores to practise~
chords to memorise~
theories to go through~
but i never get them started~~~~~~

Procrastinate too much and ive been playing the old pieces!
Because dont have to take time & effort to play the old pieces~
Shortcut is my favourite. Thats why im a mistress of none.

No expert. Not even an amateur.
A week or two for a song out of the busy schedule shouldnt be a problem.
I should have completed at least ten more new songs this year! but i didnt.
OMO. I haven even finished my favourite songs.

Have always love piano eversince im a child. It all got started when my parents got me a mini wooden 8 keys 'grandpiano' when i was 2 years old. Then moving on to a mini organ. So i really treasure what i own now even if it only comes later during teenage years. Being able to realise one of my childhood dreams. This is the happiest one can get i think. Just to be able to play some songs on the keys. Just that only. No need to be professional nor good. And when i receive compliments, i'll feel very very very happy~ Nonetheless i learn everything on my own.. with my sister's help. but i still lose to Jam Xiao. Hes extremely gifted! Thats why i adore him this much. He begin playing at 15, and he has already come this far at our age! Could i have been a better player if i heed my dad's advice and took up lessons when i was a teenager? He always offer me the best advices. Hence i always remind myself to ask for his opinions regarding some important issues.


Well, maybe i'll be more diligent in the practice of the scores when i get the song shared.
I have a chip to help record the song ive played~
I still haven figured it out how to upload it to the computer.
OMO. been so many years and i still left it there. Unsolved.
The next time i may upload the song i played onto my blog~ or even my phone as ringtone! Actually during my old age i want to do alot of things. One of it is to practise on the piano everyday. I want to save for a GrandPiano! Even if i got the money when im 60 years old, i still want to do it.


sigh. but now im tempted to join the guitar club in my school~
All because theres no piano club. I dont like the fact that when i hold a guitar, i cant even get the shortest nice tone out of it. Yet strumming the strings will get calluses onto my fingers. Having no interest to learn new thing is bad. Having too many interest is worst.
