Feelings: Joyful

音樂會完成了，不過這才是一個前奏！五月二十二日我們會開第二場，演 Brahms．Brahms 沒有 Saint-Saens 那辛苦，都過得去．．．

今晚的音樂會．．．是我在 Monash 開音樂會咁多年以來最多聽眾的一場．勁！！！上年的 Robert Blackwood Hall，真像是小 cat 三四隻．今次好多好多好多人來了！！！

雖然我有好多位都是”扮拉”，不過自己都比以前進步了．Good on Me, Emily!!!

也感謝各方送來的祝賀～ good luck~ good show 的 message ^.^ ．

Feelings: Dreadful

十分不滿自己要做到零晨二時四十五分．．．

我未睡覺也吧，但我帶著主耶穌與我一起開夜車．

唉．sorry my Lord


不開心．

The first thing I noticed when I wake up this morning... was that, I need to call my physiotherapist.

Feelings: Forlorn, depressed

I thought of going to uni at around 2pm, but it wasn't successful. Yesterday's and the week's tireness made me woke up quite late this morning.

I thought of taking the 4:10pm train to uni, but I was slacking and not ready to leave my house, so I decided to take the following train.

4:48pm train, hahah, I MISSED IT!!! T_T ~ Sunday isn't a good time for public transport.

Finally I arrived campus at 5:38pm. My student card wasn't working, but I was able to get into the music building. Oh, but... the swipe card system for the computer lab wasn't working as well!!! >.< ~ I went to uni so early because I have an assignment to finish off... I didn't want to write music notes by hand. Software can help me cross-check and more neat and tidy for music notes.

The campus center & library were shut too. I sat on the bench infront of a little pond. Yet it was evening, the cold change came...

If I didn't miss the earlier trains, I would have to be at uni for more hours... coz I've got rehearsal at 7pm.

Okay... there I cried and felt burdened.

There is fear during the weak, which I have been ignoring. There are sadness, dissatisfaction, anger and frustration, but I have ignored them as well. Life's been too occupied that I have no time to feel what's happening inside me.

Oh well... Now I still have to handwrite my music notes for the assignment DUE tomorrow.

Forgive me if I am not appearing at CCBC this Wednesday.

A word came into my mind this morning... "will collaspe", yay, it's in future tense, I am still okay.

Feelings: Seething

有小許的無奈～　

明天要交的 ESSAY 被 EXTEND 到星期一
明天的小測被 POSTPONE 到下星期五

我也感恩，我 PREPARE 得七七八八

如果這星期初知道會 POSTPONE & EXTEND，我會 RELAX 嗎？

Feelings: Locked-in

EXTRA SLEEP...Slept at 12:50pm, awaken at 1:15pm, then slept again 'til 2pm, woke at 2:15pm, slept again and woke at 2:35pm.

Last night was grateful to have finished my readings by 11:59pm, so I were willing to go to bed. Hohoho...

I've got one assignment due for every Monday in May. Weekly assignment...

I am afraid I won't drop my turbo 'til June 1. I think that I am immune to my emotion nowadays. Most probably it's becoz I value my assignments & uni stuff more than myself. I know I still have something that I need to handle and calm my emotion down. But with the tight tight schedule at uni, my mind have put them aside until further notice.

This semester I would only need to sit for one exam, which is on June 1. Hope to prepare for it soon!

Feelings: Repulse

昨天 Clayton 校園停電，我真想昨晚 7-10pm 的排練 cancel．

我很疲倦．

今天校園的圖書館 close，所有課堂都停課一天．但我們的音樂仍然要進行．
今天下午仍然有我們的 orchy assessment．

無奈，我想要多一個星期練習先去考試啊．


Mrs Earle 名言：這個世界可以停，不過音樂不可以．
之前我好 BUY 她這說話．我沒有想過是否真理，是否 MAKE SENSE．．．～　但作為一個音樂人，她那說話 so so so 勁的音樂精神！

okay，it happens! Clayton 停課，but except orchy! >.<

Super-stressed at the moment！

Anyway，如果沒有 orchy assessment，可能我都不會放時間去練好演出的曲目吧．今日的 assessment 是六分鐘，六分鐘後就要 move on with 星期五的小測溫習．

Feelings: At ease, thankful

放學在 LIBRARY 找書，本想坐 lift 上去，不過最後都是行樓梯．

呵．不久停電．

不過停電仍然沒有影響我們一班在 Main Collection 的人．找書的，用電話看 call number．溫書的，也 continue 溫書．當我找到了書單上的書就離開了．

停電，所以都借唔到書，不過可以 ON HOLD ～　好彩！！！

我走的時候先有人上黎叫 EVACUATE ．

感謝主．任務完成．

Feelings: Eager

11:40pm... just returned home after my rehearsal & late dinner. I actually had my dinner at 5pm today, and by the time the rehearsal finished, I wanted to eat.

Being stressed by orchy (orchestra) for 2 months, I finally feel lightened. Today's the last 3rd rehearsal that we will have, I feel good about it, and getting more excited for the concert.

Uni's orchy has turned to become "Monash Academy Orchestra". Our artistic director has pushed us into a semi-professional orchestra this year, which has partly given us bit of stress and more straightness to us, the musicians. Anyway, we are having our first concert series on 24 April!

We are performing Bernstein (West Side Story), Rodrigo (Concerto for GUITAR and orchestra) and Saint Saens (Symphony No 3).

Cheers,
Emily


http://www.monash.edu.au/monart/whatson/2007/autumn-series-april.html

Tickets are from $10 - $60... what a huge range!

Monash Uni Student: $10
Friends of the Orchestra: $25 (make sure you know MY name when you ask for this discount)

If your friends are coming and they don't know me, and not a uni student, those tickets are priced at $35. If they are coming for our two concerts (24/4 and 22/5), that would cost $60.
