3/4 Cello SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))

I started off with a 3/4 sized Cello about 4 years back????? Or maybe 5???? :PPP Not very sure.

Then about maybe 2-3 years back, I upgraded to a full size cello because the 3/4 was too small for me. :)

I changed to my Aunty's full sized cello which is over 20 years old, has been a WALL DECORATION for over 14 years, UNPLAYED, and yeah.... :)

I inherited the olddddd cello....we had to do some repairs here and there, but at least now it's being used. :)

After I changed to the full sized, the 3/4 has been collecting dust on top of the bookshelves, for over 3 years???????

Never really had a buyer.... :)

Finally recently, mummy decided to post it on a forum, and we were all just thinking, yeah it'll probably be still here for quite a long time.....

But then, BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!! The ad has hardly been posted there for 2 months, and IT'S BEEN SOLD!!!!!!!!

Do you hear me??????? IT'S BEEN SOLD!!!!!!!!!! :) I can't believe it!!!!! :)

Just TODAY!!!!!!!! Rather just now!!!!!!!! :))))))))) I can't believe it, my 3/4 cello SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!! Phewwww...........at least it's going to be played by someone, whom I DEARLY HOPE HE WOULDN'T THRASH IT!!!!!!!! :(((( It's in super good condition because, well I'm sure you all know, I'm kinda of a very careful person? :)

Anyway, here are some pics I took of my cello before it was sold... :) As a rememberance of my dear old small cello... :)

Full view... :)

Yellow background... :)

Sleeping on its side... :)

With the bow.. :)

Look how RED it is!!!!!!! :) Phew...it's practically auburn... :) Or maybe scarlet.. :)

shocking color! :)

If you compare this cello's color to my current one....oh my, this is like super shocking red, and my current one is like ginger... ;)

Oh and the sound quality???? oh my, I nearly died when I tried this one out....it sounds exactly like A TOY VIOLIN!!!!!!!!! :PPPP From cello to violin...... imagine that....... it's oh my....I don't even know how to describe the sound after I've been playing my current one for so many years... :))))

It's just terrible.... :))))))) As my mum said, it's unique in its own way, but oh man, I really don't like the sound anymore.... :) Funny how I've learned to appreciate better quality cellos during the past years.... :)))))

Anyway, my dear old cello is SOLD, and I only have pics to remind me off it.... :)

Wooooooooooooootttttttttttttttssssssssssss BSF was awesomeeeeeeee today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))

First funny thing, Joel, for some reason, clipped Tabi's nametag on his landyard. We dunno why but anyway he just did it.... then later he realized that it wasn't his nametag and everybody laughed like mad!!!!!!!!!!! :) It was just so funny!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))))) C'mon la, his name starts with "j", hers starts with "t". So different!!!!!!! :))))))))

Then later Joel wanted to get back at Samee and started laughing at her and pointing at her when she made a mistake in her memory verse.... and then later she got back at him when he couldn't answer a question..... :)))) So much for fighting.... :)

The good thing about Joel and Samee is, they make us laugh. They are such funny people....oh!!!! It's good to have them in the class... :) Joel practically laughs at EVERY SINGLE THING that happens in class, and Samee makes such ridiculous and hilarious comments that you can't help laughing!!!!!!!! :))))))))

oh yea and we had FIRE DRILL TODAY!!!!!!! :))))))))) But because it was raining I think that's why it wasn't for long. :(((

It was funny how all of us were so quiet and thinking of an answer during homeletics when suddenly a LOUD CLANG interrupted our thoughts! :)))))))))

To sum up today's class, it totally ROCKED!!!!! :)

Audrey: *stops wailing, takes the chicken, stares at it for awhile and starts crying softly*
Uncle Case: Ok Ezra(her brother), when Audrey cries again, just give her the chicken!

Hives...

My dear hives came back again yesterday............... :((((((((

It's a raised-map-like rash, which itches and pricks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :((((((

I've had it since I was a little girl, and until now we don't know the cause of it.

I don't think it's food related, but it seems to be something to do with drastic weather changes. We aren't sure yet, but I do hope we will find out the cause soon!!!!!!!!!!!

It was really really bad yesterday, my eye was even "beng-kak" because of the rash.......

Lord Jesus, I pray that you will show to me what's the cause of it. I trust that you will show me in your own time, In Jesus Name, Amen!

The Jeyarajah Sisters Visit!!!!!!!!! :)

THE JEYARAJAH SISTERS DECIDED TO COME FOR A VISIT TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))

It was kinda of  like an impromptu visit... I mean it wasn't really planned really well, but suddenly they told us on Sunday that they ar coming to Subang today, and whether they can come for a visit!!!!

And finally, we arranged everything and it was settled, they were coming all the way from Klang to Puchong to see us!!!!!!!!! :)

We recently went all the way to Klang to see them, now they came to see us!!!! :PPPP

They arrived at about 2pm and their parents went back to Klang because their dad had work... so when the girls were going to go, we had to send them to the KTM station.. :)

But then we decided to ask them to join us for dinner too....so we had MANY HOURS to talk!!!!!!!

It was great because only after more than 2 years we meet up again!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :))))

We had plenty to catch up on, and we were talking and talking and talking..... so many different subjects!!!!!!!! From teenstreet to singapore to camps to traveling to movies, to shopping to WAR, to JAPAN EARTHQUAKE, to DEAD PEOPLE and dreams about dead people.... oh my goodness!!!!!!!! It was so funny!!!!!!!!!! ;)))

And also of course the highlight of the day's topic was, ABBY'S BOYS AND HER FUTURE PARTNER AND HER WEDDING IN SOUTH AFRICA!!!!!!!!!! :PPPP It was just good old teasing and it was fun teasing her, but she started it all about her torchlight dinner instead of candlelight dinner, and this guy la and that guy la, and tabs and I were having fun teasing her about it... :PPPPPPP

To sum up the whole day, it was SUPER DUPER AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

Charissa

MERDEKAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Merdekaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :))))))))))))

I finished sitting for my grade 5 theory exam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wootsssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!! :))))))

Ok. Here's the story of how it went today. :)

So, I arrived at the school, found my class, and sat down at my table. I had table number 18. : )

Then have to wait lor. Wait, wait, wait. Then the fella incharge of our classroom, gave us instructions and blablabla...... then 9am sharp, START!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :))))

Btw, I was starting to get nervous even the night before when I realized that this morning was my exam!!!! :) Of course I was also nervous before my exam started today... :PPPPP Normal right???? :) But after mummy prayed for me I felt better. I also prayed to God to be with me during my exam. ;)

Anyway, to get back to it, the first thing I did when we were allowed to look at our papers was, to check what was the instrument choice given for the part where I had to compose an 8 bar melody. wheeee I got violin or oboe!!!!!!!! :) I was hoping I will get either violin or cello. Because I play a string instrument so it's easier to compose a melody for the instrument. Of course I chose violin!!! :P

Page after page I did, took few minute breaks in between............ :))))

Then came to this part where they gave me the german word, MASSIG. :) I had to give the meaning of the word in english.

But for the life of me, I didn't know what it meant. So I thought I had no choice to leave it BLANKO.

I continued to the next page, and then suddenly, I don't know why but I thought that maybe the word means MODERATO(in a moderate speed). So I thought, maybe I will just "tembak" and write that down. :)

Because no harm what, even if I don't put that, I will still lose the 2 marks. But if I put that, maybe I will have a chance of getting it right. :)

Then, I was concentrating so much on my composed melody, that I FORGOT TO WRITE THE TEMBAKED MEANING IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ayuhhhh.....

But nvm laaaa....

The worst thing that could ever happen was, I went home to check the meaning of the german term, and guess what???????????!!!!!!!!!! IT REALLY MEANT IN A MODERATE SPEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so angry and annoyed with myself, I kept stamping my foot and saying aiya aiya!!!!!!!!!!

Ayuh, if I had tembak and put that in, I would have gotten my 2 MARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(((((( *sobs*

But nvm, it's ok, I still did my best for the Lord, and I'm happy. :)))

As Lily told me, just be confident in myself. :)

All's well, I survived the exam, and I'm super duper happy that I CAN SAY MY FAREWELL TO THEORY NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))))

Cello lesson after my exam was good too, teacher was mighty pleased with my playing today. :))))

I'm a happy girl,

Charissa

Exam in 3 days time..........

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH My Grade 5 Theory Exam is on Monday, just 3 days from now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sooooooo fasttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!! :((((((


I'm currently sick, rather, jie fell sick somtime early this week, and she passed her germs to me.... :((((((

I really hope and pray that I won't feel too sick during my exam.... Please Pray For Me!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))

So, the horror day is awaiting me.............. it has come so quickly!!!!!!!!! I can barely believe it's just this MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :((((((((((((

If you are wondering why I said horror day, it's because, I hate theory.... rather if I wanna use a stronger word, I despise it.... :(((((

Practically everybody hates it..... it's so annoying. I mean, ok, you still need to know the basics if you're playing an instrument. Right. But the thing is, they make you learn and memorize other things that you won't even use after the exam!!!!!!!!!

Especially all the Itailian, German, and French terms!!!!!!!!!!!! arrrgggghhhh!!!!!!!!!! Basically theres 9 PAGES of those terms.... but I'm only gonna pick those commonly used ones to remember... :)))

Anyway, please just pray for my flu.......thanks so much........and please pray that the exam will go well. :)
