I PASSED MY GRADE 8 EXAM!
Published by Sylvia Giacinta March 22nd, 2010 in day by day and me. 0 Comments‘Nuff said. I got 111 for the exam, which means I only “pass”. Without merit, without distinction, but who cares? I got through the piano hell! OMG! Now time to play piano just because I love it. Anyone wanna learn playing piano, btw? Contact me!
This is the current hit song in my choir (SMU Chamber Choir). You Were There by Libera. I hope I’m not the only person that thinks the video is cheese sandwich. I mean, ugh. It’s like somebody just took their pictures and tinkered around with iMovie or the likes (Windows Movie Maker? Eeks). But it [...]

Classes have ended. Projects have ended. I just handed in the beautiful 30-page report today, and that would be my last submission of the term. As always, as the cliche saying goes, time flies. And as always, I always review a term. This term has not been my most tiring term ever. I guess the [...]
The Middle Girl
Published by Sylvia Giacinta November 6th, 2008 in me and sylv.thinking();. 4 CommentsSometimes I feel that I’m always in the middle. Not good enough, but not bad either. My grades are never top grades, but they’re still adequate to keep me from being kicked out. I play piano, finished my grade 7, but I’m still not able to play Chopin’s Fantasie Impromptu. Perhaps it’s because of my [...]
And so NaBloPoMo starts. Here I am with the first post for this month! It was, like usual, a busy day. I’m always busy on Saturday. Choir at morning (which I attended late because of my stupid morning stomachache that made me go to the toilet back and forth). Sang 2 tango songs. [...]
