Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. For his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in his law doth he meditate day and night. -Psalm 1:1,2
10.16.2007 Chamber Rehearsals
3:52 pm
Haha today was sort of fun. Ok maybe not.
9 am - I woke up. Had breakfast. And did all the usual morning things.
9.50 am - I walked to the Newton MRT station. Shangxuan wanted to meet me there, then i was supposed to bring him to my house to practice our chamber item. (which happened to be one of mozart's trios). Yes if you're alert you will realise that a trio has 3 people. But there are only two of us. That's because Zenn supposed to play with us but can't make it.
10 am (exactly) - A message arrived (from shangxuan). "Hey dude, crap.. Sorry I drifted back to sleep and just woke up ><><" I ended up buying a can of "whatever" while waiting.
about 40 minutes later...
10.40 am - Shangxuan arrived!
10.50 am - We reached my house.
10.55 am - We started practicing abit, Shangxuan had some of his rhythm corrected.
11.50 am - Shangxuan left.
12 nn - I ate lunch at my grandparents' place downstairs.
12.15 pm - I headed to Adriel's place by taxi. TAXI. I told the taxi driver: 16 Stevens Close. He went to 16 Stevens Rd. I said "Uncle, Stevens CLOSE" He said "Aiyoh ni shuo hua na me xiao sheng ah". He went to Stevens Drive. He said "oh shi stevens close ah". I shut up.
12.35 pm - I reached Adriel's house. He wasn't in. His maid brought me in and said Adriel wasn't in. She offered me a drink but I declined.
1 pm - Adriel reached his home. We started practicing.
1. 30 pm - Adriel's teacher Nella Hunkins arrived. She was a huge blonde hunk of a lady. And first thing she commented was "you know i got these furry in-soles, like I'm stepping on an animal, some of them deserve it"
There was this long, tiring, yet interesting lesson.
3.30 pm - She finished.
3.31 pm - Adriel called a cab for her.
3.40 pm - The cab came.
3.41 pm - She left.
3.45 pm - I took a cab back home after thanking Adriel. And he knew the way.
3.50 pm - I reached home.
Now that was my day so far.
Hah.
