9th D,ADDARIO was Performed! 2008-08-11 14:41:30
Finally, the last test piece was about to play. The time seem to be so fast , as we have to bid farewell to each other after we play our final piece. I can't bear to leave the class, as it was so much fun playing the classical guitar with other classmates. Well, Life Goes on. This D,ADDARIO was perform to the teacher. I believe it contains the power to make teacher shed tears as I have played before to my Girl friend. SOB! I Play the piece. The teacher has no Emotion. >.< You know what he say? He say the song sounds all right with a grin smile! >.< ! I was so sad, I can't make teacher shed the tears in front of me. Instead , I was shedding tears! BwahhhHH!!!! I thought My D'ADDARIO got the power! My Classmate even praise me like a Professional Guitarist. Haha! Ok this is coming to the end. I really enjoy the times being with the classmates and the teacher. I never forget this period of times that we have spend~

8th D'ADDARIO Was Born! 2008-08-11 14:31:51
Arrrrrggggg, too many song to choose! It was hard to make my choice. I was so headache and confuse! Then I came upon D'ADDARIO piece which caught my eyes. They song was really so smoothing that I begin to like the song! Then I practice every day and night to improve the song because it consists of slow and fast rhythms. I even play this song piece to my Girl friend. She hear the song and begin to shed tears as this song got the sentimental emotion that can make people feel sad . This is the song I want. It contains the power to control the feeling of a person! Weeee! Finally, this will be my final set of piece.

5th Blog Major /Minor scale 2008-08-11 14:16:17
Test!!!! again!!!! We have to constantly practice the Major and Minor scale. It was really hard at first due to the fingerings and must be fast and accurate. Phew~ i manage to pass the scale. I always tend to get nervous when I was to perform the piece to the teacher. Luckily, finally the rain has stopped. But we have to prepare our next test piece which is Silver Bell. >.

It seems that the Guitar music is getting harder as we advance into further stage. Everyone was concentrating learning on their guitar. I was learning as much as they do. Well, it was really very difficult as the test for guitar is coming soon~ sob!

Today is not a really simple day for me. I started the first piece song "Spring Message". My lecturer watch me when i play this piece. It was very awkward at first, cause I am not used to the chords and the melody. It is quite embarrassing though but nevertheless I keep practice with my partner. Finally, I manage to play the complete song after few attempts. Phew! It wasn't that easy to play. You need to have constant practice so that you can remember how to play the song well. Practice makes perfect. This is true when the teacher told us about it. Practice Practice Practice. All the best!

First Time 2008-05-11 09:41:37
Wow!I never realise it have been busy week for me till today, I'm writing the first blog. It is my first time playing a classical guitar when I take this lesson. I have been learning and practice for the past few weeks. I think it is hard as we need to have constant practice in order to achieve the result. Nevertheless, I feel that it will be an interesting and rich experience as it will be a learning stage for me. I hope that I can pick up the skills and understand all the chords so that today which is the Mother's Day, I can play a simple piece of song to her. Well, I just play a Golden Waltz flower song piece to her. I'm glad that she is smiling! Hehe.
