The Opening ceremony~



Here are the three painting that I managed to shoot. Just like the title, all the painting are all refresh local fruits.

I've attended water and oil painting exhibition--The Journey of refreshment by my art teacher on Wesak day. It take place at Fo Guang Dong Zen Temple. (佛光山东禅寺) located at Sungai Jarom, Jenjarom, Kuala Langat. Selangor.

The Journey takes about one hour. Open Ceremony started at 2pm, lucky us had arrived on time. Thanks to the newly open KESAS HIGHWAY which has saved up so much time but not money because there were 4 tolls along the way. Each toll cost RM 2.20. *Wide Eyes*

The temple totally captured my eyes when I saw it. It's beautiful, impressive, and majestic. The feeling is like China when you first step into it. Maybe as a Christian I really didn't expose much to other religion, I can't put those feeling in words but it's not bad at all. I was so much impressed by the people and everything here.

The temple was happening, a lot of tourist and local people. According to my friend, Buddhist celebrate Wesak day. (Actually I have no idea of what is Wesak day, I thought it's for Indians! oh my.. and he laugh till roll on the floor -_-)

We went straight to Dong Zen Art Gallery. There were two art exhibitions going on the same day. One was the traditional water color & oil painting by my teacher. Another was contemporary Digital Art. After greeting our teacher Mr.Yeo Eng Peng, the ceremony started. The section that I dislike, I just can't stand the l-o-n-g speech. The longest I can stay was only less than 10 minutes and you'll find me disappeared from the hall. *grin*

I went for a walk around the temple. I managed to take some photos but I realize my photography techniques are far away from the professional photograher. My photos turned out just don't show the beauty of the temple at all. T.T

After all I was quite upset because I didn't shoot much. I'll visit the temple one day again just for the intention to take nice photos.

If you wish to visit this beautiful temple, here are the direction with location map.

Roster Saturday

Little ones.

Here is the other pre-YMC class conducting by Ms Tee. We have few group classes on Saturday conducting by different teachers.

"Hi, my name is Ryusei, I'm 4 years old"

One of my favourite student, he is mix of Chinese and Japanese. Superb Cute^^

*Lesson time*

Everyday Saturday is the busiet day of Concerto music. It's mine as well.

Conducting 4 group lessons in a day aren't an easy job at all. Each classes consist of 4 to 6 children. From 9am till 6pm, i'll be totally roster by the end of the day.

There are two Young Child music programme in our school. The YoungChild Music Course (YMC) is an integrated music programme specially designed for 3-6 years old children.

A) Pre-YMC 'Music, Movement, and Me' (ages 3-4)

The focus of this course is on introducing young children to some basic musical concepts through singing, dancing, games, simple percussion musical instruments playing, nursery rhymes, finger plays, story telling and creative listening.

At the early stage of the course, children will not be exposed directly to keyboard; however, they will learn to play on some percussion instruments, such as triangle, ring-bells, rhythm stick, hand drum, glockenspiel, resonator bars, etc.

B) YMC Keyboard Course (ages 4-6)

This course will bring the children into a new musical world, using keyboard as a medium. Children are not only exposed to keyboard playing but also creative listening, sol-fege singing, movement, dancing and dramatization.

Trying to manage 5 kids at a time, all at slightly different skill levels and all with their slightly different personality quirks – too hyper, too shy, too smart, too messy, too particular, or too daydreamy.

For 1 hour, as I worked through every kid in the class, I was constantly squawking " Ok, let's switch on your keyboard. No no, don't bang my keyboard please. Sit tall. Now show teacher your right hand. No, right hand! Yes, now tell me where is Doh? Great Job! Maybe that's too loud, try to press the key softer. Oh, your wrist is too high! Are you left or right handed? Just two eyes please! Careful! Don't swing on your chair!" and it went on and on and on and on and on.

For a whole hour!! My brain hurts!

That's just small part of the lesson. During the activities time kids will run around, jumping up and down in the room like monkey! And don't forget I have four group classes in a day!

AARRGGH.

But by the end of class, it's worth to see every kids enjoy their music class much and their big happy face. Lovely.

That's my every Saturday. *smile*

The Chronicles of Narnia~ Prince Caspian

I've finally got a chance to watch this movie during the holiday! Yes, I'm a fan of NARNIA, basically a huge fan!

I Love all the characters, costumes, story line, scene.. everything! Just love it! *dreamy sigh*

Surprisingly my mum loves this movie too, she really enjoy it much although she didn't watch the first episode. Her comment is: " This film is better than Jackie Chan & Jet Li's movie (The Forbidden Kingdom) !"

How proud as a fan of NARNIA heard that! My mum has an extraordinary taste for movies and drama that she delights isn't she? *smile*

No matter how busy is my work, movie & drama are still my best entertainments.

Thanks to all the entertainment/film industry for producing so many great movies and shows for true fanatics like myself.

And I can't wait for this coming weekend because I'm gonna watch INDIANA JONES. It's the hottest movie in town now, everybody should watch!

*sigh*

I must admit I'm truly a drama-holic + movie-holic...

Lovely sweet smiles after the exams.
Some of the primary levels' candidates.

17th Saturday 2008

A historical and most important day since the opening of Concerto Music, Ballet & Art.

It's the FIRST ballet examination of the school.

All classes were postponed for the examination because it took place at our school. We need to ensure a quiet environment for exam purpose.

Most of all, I was the pianist.

The examination started from 9:30am till 12pm. It was quick.

I can’t remember the last time I felt so FLUTTERY AND FLOATY IN MY STOMACH.

But I think I did ok.

The examiner Miss Valerie Bayley was serious. Although she was in her 70s but she still looks strong and elegance . She must be a good dancer when she was young.

By noon we sent her back to the hotel.

And I spent the rest of my day gaming, watching my favorite drama and sleeping at home.

Completely relief after the few months of hectic preparations.

Thank God there were 3 consecutive holidays right after the exam~ *big grin*

I have spent my holidays happily as I have learned a great lesson.

Will share it later...

Have a good night everybody~

Finally my blog is back to normal. *Thank God*

For some reasons my blog was having a little problem in publishing the new post since few weeks ago. Besides that I was in madly busy, that tells the absence in my blog.

Thousands apologize for my regular visitors. Everything will back to normal soon! =)

Lots of updates coming up, about the snippets of my latest life.

Karen is having her teaching exam today. She is one of our second ballet teacher which still under going her Diploma in teaching.

She was quite nervous while the examiner has arrived. Therefore I suggested we should take some photos and I told her she really looks fabulous today, isn't she? *smile*

That works! And she was doing great, Congrates! *grin*

Fifth of May

Happy Birthday to me!

I've officially turned 25 on 5th of May 2008.

Frankly speaking, I really didn't feel much of excitements for my birthday this year.

Birthday isn't a big deal anymore, I'm abit worried, is it a sign of aging?

Though, thanks to my love families, babe eve & babe quin, friends who remembered my birthday, it's you guys who made my birthday so special, so unforgettable, and so happy ever!

I love you all!

Today it's a day out with my baby Even and babe Quin~

We went Sunway Pyramid Redbox. It's such a long time we didn't hang out for singing. Three of us love to sing, very much.

*The most delicious birthday cake, it's really really really delicious!*




I can't hold back my tears when the birthday song suddenly appeared on the screen while the birthday cake served by the waitress at the same time.

I was so shocked and surprised!

Quin and Eve were singing the birthday song loudly, I didn't expect that at all! Thanks to my babe Eve and Babe Quin. It's totally a moment of bliss!




After the K section, we went for a little walk at the mall. Have some snacks and gaming. Totally fun!





Around 8pm we went Ole Ole Bali for dinner. First time here, it's quite packed even though it's Monday night. The food were excellent. I love the atmosphere for everything was completely in Bali style, for a moment I really thought I was in Bali!

There are more precious things I would like to share.

To be continued...
