.. Anyone heard of Professor Wei Tsin Fu?.. well this guy invented this Snowball method of piano education n he taught many children to play piano pieces that are of high techinical level.. 2 key points from his theory... Firstly, children must be humble, they must be open minded to learn n parents must encourage n tell their children to not say "no" without trying.. Secondly, children must be taught to help other people because by helping other people, they use their mind more n thus becoming more intelligent.. It is always harder to solve other peoples' problem so by helping others, they become smarter.. he discovers that our brain capacity is really under utlised n his methods is teaching children how to utlise this capacity of their.. BTW, he is also a scientist.. Today, He brought his students to the SSA headquarter at Tampines for a 2 hrs mini concert.. His students are about 15 n a6 yrs old n they are playing pieces that only master can play.. It was really an enriching experience n I totally enjoyed the music.. They played master pieces from Mozart, Beethovan n also Gershwin.. then modern classic was also played.. those that have lots of clashed keys n banging.. fantastic, finally I make sense of these music n it was really worth the afternoon.. BTW, is free so is double n even triple worth it.. yah yah..
.. i want to learn piano again.. hmm.. maybe do my theory first .. but this will have to wait after NDP..
Featuring the Block B1, my fellow participants in NDP 2007.. the boy doing the monkey face is the youngest guy in our group n the most mischievous ..

Today homevisited 2 of the student members .... it is always interesting to talk to young people.. they made u fill with dreams n hopes afterwards..
Well.. just finished reading this manga title called 水边战役... well in english it can easily be translated as the Water Margin... on the 108 heros of Liang Shan.. although the content of the manga does not follow the original version .. the Water Margin is considered one of the 4 greatest novels of china.. the others being Romance of the 3 Kingdoms, Dream of the Red Chamber and Journey to the West.. incidentally, China just had a competition to choose the gal that can best depicts Lin Daiyu in the Dream of the Red Chamber.. while a successor to the New Lin Daiyu was discovered, the lady that originally played the role also passed away recently.... really 一代新人换旧人 (used negatively here)... ok back to the manga story. There is noone who is really evil or good in the story.. the person who was perceived as the most evil guy did wat he did for what he believed to be the best for the country.. even in the process, he sacrificed his old comrades and friends... We cannot then judged him as wrong but the method that he used was.. in the end, the dynasty will still fall like all great dynasties in ancient china.. actually if u think about it, history really gave people pointers about how a country should be run.. anymore, no politics here.. hahah.. is kinda of bloody so if u have a phobia of blood n fighting, then this is not for you though is not as ghastly as Tekken.. BTW I bought this title for the simple reason that it will end at Vol. 5.. .. 8)...
.. Latest New, Roger Federer of Switzerland just beaten Rafael Nadal of Spain in a 3-2 games to win his fifth Wimbledon Championship.. yeah to Roger.. n that made him in equal par with another tennis legend... well it was a tough fight so we won know whether he will be back for his 6th win next year... watch out..
