The return

Now whats wid da dealio wid p0stin 2 stuff 2gether...

No it's not a continuation of the previous thought, but the introduction of something new which i have or wanted to say for a long time due to time constraints..well see juggling between medicine my ECA and piano exams, i manage to squeeze out some time to expand my intellectual capabilities to designing.. its at this times i just wish theres like 30 hours in a day or more...but then again human nature always demands for something more and it just seems that there will never get satisfied...oh well juz get use to the friggin 24 hours in a day..

ok let's cut to the chase...

Man..photoshop rox to the max...i can tell you guys that this is one of the greatest graphic and media designing software that i have actually come across, thought maya is sonewhat related to this, but lies on a different field. however, my mediocre skills has prevented me from adding on to this testimony...Earlier on, when i started off with Adobe Photoshop was when version 8.0 came out and it was called CS as in Creative Suite, bundled together with other associated softwares like Illustrator, Golive, Indesign and Acrobat Proffesional...packing a one hack of a software bundle which is literally the dream of designers and professionalsin the art or creative industry

But as usual, software developers, who had never allow the public to master fully the software of their design which would have taken months for them to develop( not years )to my dismay, come out with another new version of the Adobe Creative Suite, The Adobe Creative Suite 2 premium....check out if you guys are interested at their website...

This goes to show that the world of information technology forces us users to keep in times with the trends or changes or else, risk becoming obsolete.

Now why did i suddenly have the urge to put this up. Yes it is because one of my colleagues,( i prefer to call them my friends) asked me to design something for them as in some sort of logo which would be eye-catchy and definitely PHOTOSHOP would be the answer.. Though i'm not very good at it yet, i am certainly going to push through this and make sure that i dun produce some sort of crap that would jeopardize my reputation. I WOULD CERTAINLY BE IN THE FOREFRONT OF DESIGNING ONE DAY...MUAHAHAAHAHA

OK that is a bit of an overtstatement, cause that bullshit statement is never going to be a reality especially when i am a medical student with so much to study and memorize. OK it is just a form of encouragement which will help me to ahem...push me and IMPROVE....

WELL I AM PRETTY OBSESSED WITH THAT NOWADAYS...will go back into that topic quite soon. It has been driving me nuts quite often and affected my mental health....now what am i talking??

HMM.... as for now i have to work on editing text, textures, designing shapes, photo editing stuff...blah blah blah and the list goes on.

Mother's Day, chronolgically misplaced.......

Now it is the week after last week and how could this week be related to the previous week. well not at all...just that i would like to wish all mothers Happy Mother's Day..kind of late well as to do with the relation thingy, i is to do with the fact that it is another " new " year for the mothers that is if you guys want to look at it in that perspective. But to me all mothers are wonderful beings who have dedicated much of their time and energy on us kids who tries to screw up everything and hide behing their back. let it be known that the contribution of a mother to her family and also to her children is priceless and one that cannot be repaid in whatever form, be it money, gifts, hugs...

I guess what is most important is the thought and the expression that comes form within, however subtle or small it is, mothers will definitely appreciate it. As for me, mother's day has changed quite a bit compared to those good old days where mother's day is just another day with a difference merely in uttering the magic words, which always seems to be some sort of panacea to all the mother's predicament on that day. This year has been a small occasion of flowers, kisses and hugs of course the magic words which has helped change the atmosphere a little... Though small,i believe that my mom, with a ever so down-to-earth atittude would appreciate the flowers...

She even told me to not spend so much on the FLOWERS...!!!!AAH BUT again whatever the personality a mother has, a gift of appreciation would suffice and of course let me rephrase the personality issue again in more elaborate terms...as in mothers who are able to perceive the gift or any form of appreciation in a gratifying manner( though it could be subtle) and not reject it...hmmm i can improve on this but not now...

ok let's end this mumbo jumbo on mother's day which has already passed..Once again to all the mother's out dere.....

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

oh...well

alright you ppl reading dis may be wandering wat the world is wrong with me coming up with the title there. actually there's like no apparent reason, just something that i came up cos i dunno wat to name this blog section

well i kind of like under stress now cos i will be sitting for my diploma ATCL recital piano exams some time soon in the future, not sure when those ppl said when they mail those stuff to my sifu it will be in one months time. ok now its like may and 1 month from now is June. Anyway talking about my preparations have been practice really more often to correct those subtle problems and tying to patch these things up is really difficult cos its like been wat i've been playing for the past many months and now correctin it is a slow and quite frustrating process, but nevertheless the extensive practice has bear some fruit.i think all my pieces are interesting. It just a matter of getting the feel right cos all the pieces are so differnet in charcter form Baroque to Romantic to 20th century..i think what's more important isthe feel and the expression is there not so much the technical site but as for me since this is my last last time playing for a piano exam...... i plan to do my best

Playing the piano has been really fun and exciting, well playing it for most of my life has created some sort of bond btw me and the instrument which i believe will be inseparable....not just bounded by exams but the limitless expression and style you can actually create, well jazz is something i would really wan to learn and master, but those chords,..... i need someone to tell me how to get it or wait....probably understan it first well all those years of playing classical music has taught me of stuffs like perfect, plagal, imperfect cadence, Tierce Picadie, diminished 7th chords, resolving chords 7th, 9th 13th chords. All this i believe play a part in all sorts of music but i m not sure wat actually jazz and blues chords use...i'm like kind of experimenting with chords and adding them to some songs which i use to hear nowadays....besides practising my 4 pieces, really demanding pieces which are

Chopin: Fantasie Impromptu Beethoven: Sonata in C minor J.S.Bach: Prelude and Fugue 6
Bartok: Suite Op.14

Passion for Music

Let it be known to anyone who wants to read the paragraphs below, it is just some sort of an introductory to what I would continue in times to come. As I’ve not blogged before bear with me as I hone my skills. I plan to make this blog some sort of a more “Enchanting” place hopefully living up to the expectation of the address of this website.

Passion for music

Ok..lets see how should I begin… Of all the years of me playing the piano that’s like about 12 years..yup a pretty long time and back then it was all practice and practice and achieving good results in theory and practical. But not so for me now…over the years music has thought me of the essence and the universality in it..as if speaking a language on its own on a different level, a language that can only be appreciated by the ears and the brain, actually the combined effort of both of them.

Music is so varied and comes in all sorts of style from traditional to folk to world and rock. Some people have a certain inclination to a specific type of music but I don’t ….. not to brag here but just to say that music should be appreciated regardless of styles. All the world over, music has been used to express a message be it love, patriotism, frienship, anger relationships and a whole list of other things in a different genre..

I do not want to go into details on how music came about, but it is certainly one of the best innate abilities of man which has ever come about. There say that even the angels in heaven sing praises to God…singing “GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST”. Well as from here it seems that music is God’s creation. I certainly love the thought of that because He has given me the ability to appreciate music. Though now as a medical student I am unable to continously pursue the deeper aspects of music, I would never depart from this affinity to music. In my deeper conscience I know that music can alleviate me from my problems by transporting me in to another world where there is peace, comfort and freedom. If such a place exist, I would not hesitate to venture and explore it with a greater intensity.

As I’ve mentioned before, achieving commendable results is not my priority. I now believe that the piano is a musical instrument capable of even more musical capabilities. I have not achieved this level yet but as I begin now I know that it will come to me one day. Again playing the piano is something that I will never depart from no matter which direction in life I will go.
