GUILD Exam Level 1

I got my certificate today from my music teacher.

This is my second examination, 1st was Preliminary level, happened on last year.

This time I have done it much better compared to last year. 

This year I awarded with Distinction. To me this is consider good as I don't really like to go for the exam initially.

This year teacher asked if we were interested to enroll to ABRSM exam for Grade 1, however I am not ready and I knew it will be a tough exam, I told mommy I don't want to take the exam this year.

That is why I only take GUILD exam, Level 1.

Can't see the photo clearly?
The camera mommy always use to take our daily photo has been broken by 弟弟. Now mommy uses the old camera and just realized that there is some problem with the lens as almost half of the photo is blur : (

Photo with my teacher. Oops...she is closing her eyes.

China House

China House - you can say it located at Beach Street or Victoria Street. 

This is because it's a very long heritage building and if you come from Beach Street, it's a cafe and restaurant serve good dinner and many varieties of cakes.

If you come from Victoria Street, it's a bar where there will be a live band performance on certain day.

This is the courtyard area

The cafe & restaurant area

Tiramisu with caramel almond

The cake corner

Mommy went there before and she was told that there are 32types of cake in total, but it usually only available on weekend. The variety on weekday is not that many. 

One of the famous cake is Tiramisu. It's different from the traditional Tiramisu which the top surface is covered by caramel almond instead of cocoa powder.

We went there after our dinner, therefore we only ordered cakes and ice-cream.

A special ice-cream that we tried was home made Gula Melaka ice-cream.

We ordered eggnog cheese cake and Banana Trutle Torte. 

Latte for mommy

I have Vanilla ice-cream...yummy!!

The water is free flow

Something special about this restaurant is each table will be covered by a big piece of white paper.
There is a small glass on each table and there are crayons inside.
The crayon is for the guest to draw on the white paper prepared.
We are free to draw anything on the paper. In fact, this is one of the good idea to keep the kids busy while the parents are having their meals.
弟弟was very excited with the crayon and he "draw" a lot.
I can't finish my drawing as I was busy with my ice-cream.

Overall, this is a nice place serves good food and many type of cakes awaiting us to explore.
For sure we will be back again : )

My Music School's Concert Jul'12

1st Jul was my music school's annual concert.

This year we were asked to perform. We have to play 3 songs selected by teacher.

There are 4 of us in our class, but only 3 turn up for the performance.

We were under junior performance which happened in the the first hour of the concert.

After that, it's the concert! And it's all about adult performance.

 Although I don't know who is he, but he purposely came to Penang for this concert.

The song he played was "The Butterfly Lovers" which is 梁祝 in Chinese.

Jasmine Chen, a singer came from Shanghai. She sang few old songs like 玫瑰，玫瑰。

We didn't stay till the concert end as tomorrow is a school day.

Furthermore, 弟弟 is waiting at Ah Mah's house and he kept on calling mommy to bring him home.

No video for this concert. Why? By the time papa want to take video during my performance, the camera lens cannot open, it jammed. This is because 弟弟 always push the lens back when it's turn on.

It's time for mommy to change a new camera.

My Drawing (060712)

I like drawing and today I draw this for mommy.

It's like a card as the opposite side of the paper is for you to write the message.

弟弟 First Music Class

Last weekend we brought 弟弟 to a trail music class.

This is his first music class.

We were early on that morning. The earlier session was not finish and we managed to see some kids singing there. 弟弟 didn't want to enter the class, he just sit outside and watch.

After a while the class ended and we were the first to arrive for the next session.

After all the kids dismissed, we went into the class. This time 弟弟 followed us went into the class and sit aside waiting for teacher to come.

As we were there to accompany 弟弟, he was able to follow teacher's instruction and enjoyed the class.

Following teacher instruction

 I was there to help 弟弟 as he can't really understand what teacher said.

After the class, we asked if he still want to go for music class.

His answer is: Yes, ai music.
