feel bit regret bout it..

Think back, n i asked myself Y i chose to stop music n head in biotech path... erm... sounds rhetorical to me..... but "every decisions starts from me n every moment is a choice" -quote from take charge softskill program.

Grd 8 is juz a common qualifications nowadays, i have it too~ should pass with merit for piano but tat day i was food poison during exam... luckily still passed. if i cont. tat time... i think i m doing my preparation for LT. diploma d.... 3years time after gd8... preparation time 99 o...

a simple performance without challenging technique require but i use my own performing pleasure style make make me third place ~.~ if i chose a more technically song who knows i can be champion? (hmm... cannot be lansy juz bcoz this) coz still got many great pianist but they dono the so-call stage performer style in a competition...

N i feel tat i would wanna take my diploma ATCL ... maybe in 2011.... nex year my bro alr going to take... for me preparation time will be not enuf... so i will start from now to work on... hope i can made it in time.

so, as a guideline to myself...
