Perform - To do, execute, or achieve something
Hee... it's finally over, my End Term Performance. Yup, I'm sorry you haven't heard of it earlier, I really didn't want many friends to be around to see me make a fool of myself, so I only asked a few people to be there.
Basically, it's a kind of "graduation" performance that I had for the keyboard lessons I took. A "live" public performance at the school's Hark Cafe. I managed to "siam" a few performances for the past terms, but this one was for graduation and I guess my teacher's patience and tolerance for my "attitude" really encouraged me enough to want to try. Yes, I was the sulky and lazy student. *Hai...*
Guess I'm glad I did it. Something in me dig the adrenalin rush. I felt I could have done better but I guess, I did the best for my standard. Haha...
Actually I am looking back with a certain gladness about the whole thing.
Really glad to have known my teachers and my classmates. My latest teacher is this sweet pretty young patient person that really really tolerated my nonsense. Really. I'm thankful also for my previous teacher who in a way, taught me the "science" of music and made everything make sense. It was really really cool!
My classmates are all so fun and accepting. I was the "new" student, so at first, I wasn't really in their frequency. But as the days passed, I really grew to appreciate them for their joyfulness and especially during this period of stress, I believe we kinda bonded. The smses that flew between our mobiles were such kind words of encouragement. Nice... Thanks to my classmate who came with a camera and MD player to crystalize the night with pictures and finally a CD of our performances... waaaay cool. Not that I'll want to listen to my songs la...
Many thanks to the friends that made the effort to brave the rain, tiredness, dizziness from shuttling around and indigestion (from rushing thru dinner) to be there. I really appreciate everyone of you for coming. It really made a big difference. I'm glad I made a fool of myself in front of you and not anyone else... hahahah... and for bearing with my whinings :p I hope you had fun too.. And the flowers! Oh my... they are sooooo pretty... Thanks!!! I didn't quite notice how pretty they looked until today when I put them into the vase of Newater :) wahhh... pretty pretty..
Happy happy happy. Just remember the good... hahahah.... and forget the bad.
shups! walked on the sunny side.
