Now you see it, now you don't

Was listening to some chinese songs on my way home and felt this gush of emotions rushing up to me when I heard the piano prelude of a song which sounded rather emo. Not really sure why but it just happens once in a while.

Anyway, my point is, I've always wanted to learn to play the piano. Since, a long time ago. I decided that I will learn to play it one day when I was around P3 I think. 'Cos I was in chinese orchestra, and the choir would perform with the teacher playing the piano during events. It just sounds so nice y'know.

My only music background was playing erhu and gaohu in chinese orchestra and also singing with my sis. So I've always envied people who could play the piano really well. And I especially hate it when people have a chance to learn to play the piano but don't like it because thereIamwantingtolearnbutdon'thaveachancetobecauseitcostsmoneyandmymumdoesn'tcareaboutpianos.

My mum used to think being able to play tunes (not chords for goodness sake) on my sis's donkey-year-old organ (those really small ones that you can change the sound of the keys, has about 20+ keys and without the ability to press than 2 keys at one time) is called 'playing the piano', which obviously isn't true.

I really admire Mr Chin (Ah Swee) for taking up piano at his age. My goal when I grow up was and is to learn to play the piano using my own money.

And then I'm not gonna care if I'm like the oldest person in the piano class.
