The Piano and I

My piano teacher was absent last Sunday - she was ill. I kind of missed her though I was given the chance to wake up late because my lesson starts around 9am. Why? Because I was excited to play my new piece, Clementi's Sonatina Op. 36 No. 6. We tried playing this two weeks ago but I don't seem to remember how it sounds. I was from an overnight pool party that Sunday morning so I was feeling a little dazed. I didn't actually hear how bad I played that morning. All I know was that I was oh-so slowly hitting the correct keys, never minding the beat. Teehee.

Anyway, I'm planning to study it tonight so I decided to listen to it first. I clicked that link above and got my heart broken. H-how can I not play as well as he does?

I guess I'll just have to study the Main Theme from Disney Pixar's Up instead. Kahit mahirap kasi mabilis siya. :(

I watched Pride and Prejudice today because I wanted to fall in love with Mr. Darcy again. He's still as charming as ever. :"> Hearing Arrival at Netherfield over and over inspired me to relearn the piece. But I just couldn't perfect that allegro part. Heartbreaking.
