recently took up ZhongRuan lessons from Singapore Chinese Orchestra zhongruan player, Foong Chui San. =D she's a wonderful, friendly and effective teacher. o.o i barely learnt (ok, properly learnt, cos in sec sch, i didnt much learn it properly. jus anyhw play), for onli half year or so o.o last half year lors, which was sem 2 of AY2008/2009. n i was seriously shocked when zhongruan laoshi told me tat i should skip 3 grades o.o HAHA! unexpectedly, she started off by teaching me grade 4 songs. n the best part is, she says if i learn it fast, i can start off grade 5 too! =X i was like. WOW o.o mayb i was seriously flattered, but i will still work my hardest to reach diploma level soon! which will probably take me erm, 2-3 years (I TINK). =X
from then on, i was seriously motivated to learn so many things in zhongruan which i always wanted to learn. and soon, when i reach grade 8, i can play tis song. (its already my blog bg music, but if u all wanna WATCH people play it, which will totally make u all stun, its below!) =D
