A year of piano lessons

Today i came very early to the work, it was truly out of ordinary. There was nothing so special today except there will be a meeting with Diyana from Billing. Soffiyan and myself have agreed to meet her this morning right before she started her meeting with the fucker sales people. Well, that's not the key highlight that i want to babble about. At 7am before i went off to office, i put my fingers on the piano keyboards and started playing the ones that should practice and out of nowhere, it came across my mind that i should try play the old songs when i first practice a year ago.

At first it was Lonesome; my fingers and my mind proved to be quite quick in synchronisation. I managed to play it reasonably good.  Well, that was not really so suprising cause i played Lonesome song sometimes when i felt bored with the kids-like song for my grade. And then i flipped the pages and i found the old one named Thumbalaika. Then i started playing the song slowly by looking the notes and my fingers on the keyboard without looking at the translation notes beneath each score. I gradually able to pick up very fast and able to play the song very well relative to the way how i played it a year ago. Personally, i've impressed my own self. Yaaaa... truly it was not a waste of practicing what my teacher, Yap taught me in every class i have attended. I can truly read the notes without the need to translate them one by one. Well done shahrul!
