Piano <3 <3

I started taking piano lessons two weeks ago ^^. My constant pestering and babbling to my parents proved to work, hehe.. They finally decided to let me take piano lessons.

My whole piano obsession actually started some time after SPM when I joined A.N.Y forum. It's a forum for compossers and lyricists to post their works up and exchange opinions. Since then I started really got in to compossing and writing lyrics. At that time, I was also trying to improve my vocals and singing. Then, witnessing some of my favourite artists able to play piano and singing along with it, I just felt really moved and urged to try playing piano. Compossing, writing lyrics, singing and listening to these inspiring songs had really got me in to music. I sometime hummed an unknown tune that just came randomly to my head, but I am unable to write it down on a paper or record it, it's a shame really. So I figured taking piano lessons would get me to know more about music, some basic theories and through piano I might really get to try compossing. Besides that, of course I would really enjoy it if I could play my favourite song and sing along with it.

So anyway, about my piano lessons, my progression was really slow. For the first lesson, they thought I was taking the normal course, hence handing me the wrong book, so my teacher can't do much and spent most of her time teaching me some theories and taught me to play the first song from the first grade book which only has 3 keys altogether. It felt really great to run my fingers on the keys!! Even now, Im longing to get my fingers back running on the keys! hehe.. For my second lesson, same case, I still haven't have my book. But I did make a little progress. My teacher taught me to recognise the notes and learn to play with the beats of the notes. Anyway, a side note, my teacher is really beautiful!!! hahaha.. She looks a lot like 李心洁 (Li Xin Jie), the actress who act in The Eye. Definitely the most beautiful teacher I've ever came accross (yet).

I think Im pretty much a slow learner. I do hope I could progress faster and hopefully I would be able to play a simple song soon. My dad was thinking of buying me a piano, but my mom objected. She thought I might be going to college or might even go oversea soon to study and buying the piano would just be a waste. I think I would progress much faster provided a piano in my house since I have all the free time now at house. I should start persuading them to buy me now..
