Long Weekend!

It's 0455am on a Saturday morning. I think I woke up at around 2 in the morning and my eyes opened wide thinking of the dream I just had. I dreamt of the Sultan and Pehin Yasmin and we were all in Indonesia for an official visit. I guessed I was the LO coz I was not in uniform. The ending part was funny as I was running toward the flying ship and I managed to get hold onto it. Then there was something about these 2x bulky expensive pens that I needed to return to the Sultan. Unfortunately I did not manage to see them until I woke up.

Yeah we are having a VERY long weekend off from work from Friday till Tuesday. Yes I am excited and yet I have no planned. Well theres lots of things to do I hope I could manage to get most of the things I listed done by Wednesday. My flute and my new flute book is just lying around for few days to be practised and sorted. Yesterday I spent the whole day doing trial and error for my Ghost make up for the Halloween social next week. I just had my sculpture half way done right after I woke up from my dream.

Finally I bought my oven last Friday with Intan. It cost me around 75 pound. When I first tried it yesterday, I burnt the body of the sculpture. I guessed Intan recommendation to set it on a baking setting is not correct after all. I carefully set it at 110 degrees for 3 minutes then tried again further. Yeah I made it this time, abody with 2x full legs and of course without hands and head yet. Amazingly it was quite tiring and quite daunting sometimes to start all these from scratch. I just need some patient and motivation. As for now, I am just gonna leave it there for a while and would come back when I am ready.

Today is already Sunday morning. Tomorrow will be my Mum's birthday, 26th October. I hope her birthday card would arrive on time tomorrow and I hope she loves her surprised gift. I am not even telling anyone about this, special gift from her speacial son. hehe.

While scrolling on BB article yesterday, I read an article about Lily Chiam music. I got excited and congratulated her on her facebook. Speaking of the devil, found her on FB and we chatted for a while. ''Where can I go' translated in Malay - Mana Ku Pergi', composed and pianist Lily and sung by Zul F. I requested Lily to purchase her Piano score on this song and she said it would only be ready by middle November. 'Where can I go' originally from Lily is one of my favourite music she composed when I first bought it last year when I first met her on her shop in Expression. I used to listen this music when I first arrived in England and used this as my background music for my YOGI breathing technique for my Cornet. And I just purchased 'Mana Ku Pergi' song from Amazon and I am listening to this song over and over again. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I love the malay version too, very soothing and relaxing. Lyrically meaningfull. Wow!

Today has to be very productive and I need to go out for fresh air. I must do my laundry today and hopefully everything would be ready by lunch time. At one point I must go tho the Gym and run the trademill for atleast an hours, training for my cross country I just joined last week. Extra activity for me. I wish I could swim today too bad their opening time is limited so not a great idea.

Last Thursday, I attended a Trafalgar Dinner nite in The Wardroom dining hall. I was not suppesed to be there as the seats were already full. I was quite disappointed not being able to attend the dinner. However I got the seat on the last minute when the Hall Porter told me there 1x person pulled it out and I had 1 hour to get my mess kit ready. Initially the Hall Porter stopped me because my parcel from my Sculpture tools had arrived. I was luck then and I guessed this dinner was meant for me. Luckily my mess kit was immaculate and by half 7pm, I was at the bar with other guests. Dinner went very smooth that night except for the guest seated infront of me had to use the 'heads' (toilet) during dinner. Ouch.. he ended up paying a bottle of Port and also embarrasement. lol. After dinner we all went to the bar again and we towards the end we had a naval tradition game where everyone was holding tight to each other in circle and not to touch the object around them. There were around 20's Liuetenants around including me playing the game. I remembered I used to play this game in Dartmouth. When the game started, everyone tried to avoid the object and get hold to each other and slowly the circle got smaller and I was there still. I just couldn't believe when theres only me and 1x Leftenant would be against each other. He was big and tall and he could dragged me before we even started. Bully man! So he tried to land me on the object and I was flying in the air and managed to get away and land somewhere safe and he hit himself on the object and I WON! I couldnt believe I WON! Everyone cheered and all the senior officers and all the staffs watched and cheered for my victory. Wow!

Its quarter to 5am now. I guessed time for shower and Solat Subuh. Thanks to Allah the Almighty for giving me all the rahmat, happiness and rezeki. I believed you made this all happened. Have a great Sunday to all!

Piano exam around the corner

It's Monday today and I realised the last time I did my blog was on my birthday. hmm Anyhow I am trying my best to update as much as possible.

I did my 3rd 3 miles run today with otheres and it seemed like I have improved on my running where I cut down 1 minute. I did 21 minutes and 27 sec today. Great effort and I hope I could improve it sooner.

I have 1 week before my ABRSM Piano exam and thank god my last piece 'Wonderful Tonight' is coming along but what worries me now is the sight reading. My bass cless is rubbish and I need a miracle to get it right asap.

I did good on my Cornet today. Proff Yates was quite happy with my breathing technique and also my piece he gave me earlier. He gave me the last scales I need to memorise before summer leave. Hmm I just can't believe I have done 3 sharps and 3 flats in a very short time. Afterall l need to keep them flowing naturally before my exam.

I guess that's it for now. Weather has been very good lately. Sun is out every day now. Yahoo..

Actually I was looking for Kak Ros, a receptionist, she is very friendly and openminded. But she finished her shift early today so I was talking to few students down at the lobby. Lobby Brunei Hall pun banyak berubah udah, very MODERN berabis and spacious.

Sepanjang cuti ku di London, I managed to see 3 museums. Quite ngalih jua melawat few places and travelling melalui TUBE,,,, wuiiii mengalih ehhh padahal I was taking my sweet time udah tu, pandai ngalih jua. Sangal ku jua melawat sja tu, so lately,, I was just being lazy,, walking around kemana sja kakiku melangkah... hehee

EXECUTIVE DECISION

Hari ani hari Isnin, biasalah hari yang paling sibuk in my week. Fortunately banyak class yg kna cancel aku apa lagi,,, syok lahh n banyak ku free so aku buat xtra rehearsal for my Piano and Cornet. Susah hatiku my other Piano repertoire alum bebunyi and esuk lagi ku ada Professor lesson. Syukur alhamdulilah, dapat jua ku memajal tadi malam after dinner.

Ngalih ku hari ni sikit pasal aku awal bangun and awal datang ke skulah 45 minutes early because i like to warm up early on Monday. Biasalah after weekend, semuanya slow. Sengaja after my school, tidur ku skajap for 1 hour to charge up my battery then I had dinner. Inda lagi nyaman tu makanannya, Moroccan Lamd because TAWAR ani wah... layan sja tia pasal aku lapar jus coz tengahari aku makan buah ja.

SO tadi malam aku practise my Piano d Skulah. Ku pajal lah belajar new piece and the second one balik2 ku main sampai lancar. Alhamdulilah bejalan jua sikit and nyaman hati ku... Mana inda ku pressure, my professor ani MR PERFECTION wah, yatah kalau ku alum membuat kerajanya, kusut tah mukanya tu. Tapi ada jua bagusnya kedia catu, capat ku belajar an progress ku berabis.

After 1 hour, sudah tah ku practise psal I tot cukup tah udah and esuk pagi subuh lagi ku datang awal sekulah and I can practise more. Parade Drill esuk pagi awal pun kna cancelled so baguslah I could practise more before my Professor class kul 1pm esuk. Then aku received msg from enche Yakub dari embassy d London.

Hmmm I dunno was it a god news of bad news. Apparently it was quite a bad news bcause it was not something that I plan for. Its about my letter staying in London for easter. Yatah just because harga ticket ke Brunei is cheaper the prefer to send me home which I prefer staying in London and not wantint to go home now. Or else I coild stay tapi they limit my hotel accomodation to 11 days instead of 18 days. Yatah paning ku memikirkan ni..... is it worth staying here in London when they cut it a week of my stay or worth going home.

I think its rather early for me to go home now. THeres nothing to show to my band right now and I am just not ready to show my self up to the band. Siuk pulang tu dapat meliat family... but i dont know because I have target and things to achive here.... I shall see and think about it and update this matter to Enche Yakub asap.

Weekends

I just can't believe it's weekends again. Time must have flown really fast, very fast I could say. I was really quite busy over the weekedays with new music repertoire, scales and apreggios on my Piano. Yesterday, we were given 3x new music on Cornet for Marching band. and what's next?.......

Infact my future weeks will be a challenge? I will start learning different instruments throughout my course. The instructors suggested that I shall get acquainted to all these instruments maybe spending 2 months on each instruments getting to know the fingering, music range, scales etc. What a great challenge!!! But they let me play Piano and also an option for me to learn Cornet or otherwise.... My third instrument will be Clarinet. My Cornet is a Brass instrument and now I want to feel the Woodwind instrument. I hope I can catch very fast. We shall wait and see...

My laundry is ready I guess. Need to do ironing for my uniform, polish my 2x shoes, ordering stuff from internet etc... BTW, sian jua Limbang atu, left unmonitored. I would fight over Limbang whatever risks it might take......Have a great Weekends everyone...

Recital, Piano Exam, Sha Visit, Intan, Assignmnet..

Last Friday, I had music recital infront of the school for the 2nd time. I was a little bit nervous and I played 2 repertoire on my Piano. That 'Banana' really helped me out reducing my nerves. Everyone seemed to enjoy the recital and there was also few recitals on the Piano and Harp.

Yesterday on Monday at 1300h, I had Piano Grade 1 ABRSM exam at St Peter's Church. I went there with Cpl Walsh and Annie who both had exam on Harp. It went smooth and i thought it was a good experience.

On Friday night, I receieved text message from Sha Woodstock. She said she was in Exeter. i got shocked and couldn't reply her coz I had run of credit. Only the next day I could call them early in the morning. I got very excited as they were going to visit me here. WHile waiting I went arount to Albert Road and bought my self a TOP HAT. Had lunch at Turkish restaurant and it was amazingly delicious, Lamb with Aubergine.

Sha eventually arrived with REza, Aliya and Salmezan and we met at GUn Whorf Quay around 3 pm. I couldn't believe they were here. Sha was also expecting her best fren named Intan, Malaysian lady married to a British man. Intan arrived and we both got excited with Sha's presence.

I brought them to the Wardroom and we had dinner. I brought them around the Wardroom. I felt very happy to have them in the Wardroom. Right after dinner, we all drove to Intan's house nearby in Portsmouth. What a lovely house and I met Derren, her friendly husband and of course met her 2 lovely daughters earlier, Alisha and Aisha.

By 10pm, Sha and family had to say good bye coz they need to drive to Exeter, 3 hours journey. It was such a brief visit and the visit to the Wardroom will be remembered for life. I will never forget them.

Well,, today I am quite knackered, exhausted..... ngalih banar... I was doing this new Piano repertoire on Grade 2. Sakit jua kepala dikit and I am going to learn new instrument very soon.... wow....Shall I start Violin? Flute?... or Saxaphone? I have got 3 days to go to finish my History assignmnet on PIANO..... Quite stressful to finish it....

MOUNTBATTEN FESTIVAL OF MUSIC at ROYAL ALBERT HALL LONDON 2009

Portsmouth blanketed with SNOW

School of Music Social Night

Bertakhta Di Hati

Di hempas ombak
Terdampar buih
Menanti waktu pulang ke laut
Begitu rindu
Di pisah takdir
Meniti saat bersulam cinta

(Bridge)
Lihat… lihat…
Ke dalam mataku
Sinarnya menyala
Lihat… lihat…
Ke dalam mataku
Cintamu bertakhta (dihati)

(Korus)
Sebelum ku kenal
Dirimu siapa
Aku tak kenali
Apa itu cinta
Setelah ku kenal
Dirimu sebenar
Kau cinta sejati
Ku sandarkan jiwa

Di gilis angin
Tercarik awan
Menanti detik sebelum hujan
Begitu sendu
Di guris resah
Meniti hari bersulam tangis

(Ulang bridge)

Takkan berganjak pendirianku ini
Selagi kita tak kembali bersatu
Selamanya
Takkan berubah perasaan ini terhadapmu
Biar digugat, biar dicabar, biar dihalang

(Ulang korus

Dance with My Father...

Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then
Spin me around ‘til I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him
I’d play a song that would never, ever end
How I’d love, love, love
To dance with my father again
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way, I would run from her to him
He’d make me laugh just to comfort me
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
If I could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him
I’d play a song that would never, ever end
‘Cause I’d love, love, love
To dance with my father again
Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
And I’d hear how my mother cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I’m praying for much too much
But could you send back the only man she loved
I know you don’t do it usually
But dear Lord she’s dying
To dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream

DAD Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to my Dad.... Sorry I only sent u a Birthday Card yesterday and hopefully will arrive safely..... U r the best Dad ever..

Wednesday was individual practise from morning to afternon. I started with my 2 pieces of music on my piano till I really got them quite smoothly. Yesterday, I was really pressed by Professor Douglas on my Piano. From my Hanon, Fingering exercises was upside down and he insisted me to read the notes carefully especially those notes with sharps.. When comes to my music, the 1st one got me into headache as I only started practising in the morning. I was very hesitant and unsure but other music, Minuetto was not too bad. That's why, the whole day today, I spent alot practising my music, fingering ex and my scales before my nx Piano lesson with proff. I hope nx week would be perfect. Prof Douglas intends to upgrade me in Grade 2on my Piano...Certainly it's a good news and lots of challenges as well.

Not forgetting I was also practising my Cornet in my cells till my lips got swollen.. wahhh... I just got lots of music to cover. At lunch time, I collected my shoes from the cobler and had them polished tonight. I got all my new uniforms ready to go and I just ironed my new trousers lininig new creases which I had them altered earlier. I guess,, by next I shall change and wear my new uniform... Smart!!!

I need to sleep now. Need to wake up early in the morning to complete my homework. I am quite exhausted to do it tonight.

SNOW N SNOW

This morning I got excited as I was ready in my sport attire to go out for 3 miles run, I got surprised when I saw snow covering the area outside.... THe snow really shocked me as we never expect to have snow falling down in Portsmouth... Got very excited and shocked at the same time.. Went backto my room and grabbed my camera.

I was wearing short with a jumper as I jogged to school with snow around me.... It was all white and good sight.. I really loved it. Everyone seemed to get excited aswell seeing the snow. We all falled in at the school waiting for PTI for briefing. THe wind started to blow quite strong as I started to freeze and had to move around restlessly. THe parade area was covered in snow and also the cars... It was quite unsusual to see white stuff covered most reas here..

PTI tinted us out because of the snow and thank god we didn't have to run today. I jogged back to the Wardroom and got online for a while. I managed to chat with Chicko and showed him the snow thru webcam.... siuk.....I don't mind snow and snow everyday... After lunch, the snow kept coming down again as I walked to school. And when we had wind band practise at the Concert Hall, I could see the snow falling down from the window....

Last weekend, I started my new music on my Piano called Minuetto from Mozart. It's quite a good classical piece and thank god I got it atlast in 2 days. When I played Minuetto today, it just getting better and better. I need to focus one more piece... I hope by toningt as I have Professor lesson tomorrow. Our Choir, Panis Angelicus sounds much better today....

I need to get change for dinner now and later, I need to go to a gym for a run... TIme to burn lots of calories...

Monday ohh Monday..

It's midnight as I woke up at 10pm. I was quite exhauseted mentally today and tried to sleep and relax my mind unfortunately I woke up again. Felt better but I wish I could sleep longer...

I cant believe Monday was just over and we are already on the 2nd weeks of our school.. Gosh everything moves faster. Last Sunday, we went out to watch football match down at the Pub, Manchester United vs Chelsea. There were Beth, Emily, Throwbrige, Flob, Lambert and mostly the new troops.. Very exciting match and Man U won the game..3 0.. HOw bizzare is that when I realised Man U played at Old Trafford in Manchester and I was there 2 weeks ago.... Small world isn't it? I just wish I could watch Man U vs Liverpool on the 14th March 2009. I'm still figuring out how can I make it possible to get the ticket and to travel 5 hours journey up n down. Hmmm

Monday oh Monday... Ahh great day today and extreamly busy. I could feel like I was running from cless to another as most of our classes are our 1st class. Aural class, I started with the new troops and we had Melody Dictation... THen after break I had Piano class with Cpl Thompson where she took video cam on her teaching.. Pressure pressure.... It was not to bad coz I just did as per normal class. I filled up for my Piano Exam practical ABRSM form today cost about 30 Pound.

After lunch, we had Wind Band class at the Concert Hall.... We practised marching music and new music was given, Les Miserables... I was quite late today coz I lost my Beret from the Wardroom.. eh macam2 saja.... Yatah lintang pukang ku ulehnya.... Mentally I was tired... trying to absorb every music given today.... Half way, I had to excuse my self coz I had Cornet lesson with Professor Yates.. Hmmm kepisan ehh... dari satu ke satu.. But I was just chilling out in his room... I am quite weak on my Cornet fingering especially on an octave higher as well as the notes with sharps and flats on them....

Break time, had a cup of tea..... Balum jua abis Tea ku,, break time was over.. Astah... What is going on with the time? Then aku jumpa Band master, Martin... time d bilik rehat. katanya, "Sir, would u like to join the choir class now?".... then I said, "I was not told by Cpl Thompson about it"...... Then he said on air, "Cpl Thompson, Lt Redzky is very keen to join Choir class today..." hmmm

Walked trudgingly to the Concert Hall... hmmm what a great Monday. Everyone from new and senior troops all stood up ready.. and WO Mc Gain Harding took over and taught us on Choir.As usual, I got Base voice group and I couldn't believe Miss Brook rambutnya yg paling pendek ah,, Soprano.. very Soprano..Everyone was amazed when we had vocal assesement together and that high Soprano voice came from somewhere in the group.. Sekalinya,, Miss Brooke... Unexpected... n funny. Everyone laughed and amazed at the same time... So we had our first Choir.. PANIS ANGELICUS....astah.. lagu church jua bunyinya.....and it's all written in Latin.

At the end of the class, I just chilled out in my music cell kebeliangan....I organised my stuff yg bejurit. Seeing my Piano, I was so tempted to practise as I have always enjoyed practising Piano, but..... I was just so tired. Then after that I set ready for tomorrow, which is enjoying the cold weather doing Parade... Great n just great.... It's going to be fun... I got Proffessor Douglas Piano lesson at 2pm.. and he is expecting me to play one music piece without any mistakes...Yes I am ready....Apa lagi... aku layan ja...

TIme no is quarter to 1 am... need to memorise some Cornet fingering before I sleep again...

Tomorrow, It will like a brand new day and a new person with new vision. I will wake up early in the morning with a smile, eat little breakfast, walk happily to the school 30 minutes early so that I can warm up my lips for my Cornet Parade. I will enjoy the Parade as well as the weather and the weather will be mild and less chilly with no wind. On my Piano class, I would perform my music without mistakes infront of Proff Douglas. And the rest of the day will be an enjoyable individual practise... HOw is that? Positive indeed? It's the LAW OF ATTRACTION...SO good nite everyone and SMILE...

Hmmm THursday would be very busy day with Physical Training, Element Class and History class.... I accepted his invitation and I hope I would be fresh tomorrow....

Hall Porter called me saying that I got letters... I walked through my cabin while opening one of the letter. It was from Lily Chiam and I was quite shocked.... Her letter just boosted my energy up again for my music... WOw what a coincident! Lily Chiam is the greatest Brunei composer which I met last year and thank god I have found her. SHe is really inspiring. She is like and angel to my life.... WOw.. I kept on reading her letter again n again and few tips given... THanks Lily... U r a legend...

She was menyusun lagu on the other block while others were practising at the concert hall... then I asked her why didn't she joined others..

Portsmouth, Home Sweet Home

The time now is 0317H on Monday morning. Eventually I arrived in Portsmouth. The moment the train finally stopped at Portsmouth Harbour, I felt glad and I said " I'm home". Weather was cold when I walked with my heavy luggage to my Wardroom...... Once I got to my cabin... wahhhhhh!!!! Siuk ehhh rasanya. I am really home, feeling like home. Once I opened my cabin, my bed was clean and ready and everything was secured.

Nyaman rasanya balik arah rumah sendiri walaupun bukan rumah banar... SInce I got here, I feel very comfortable and nothing compare my cabin in Portsmouth. My cabin is just so spacious and warm. Right away unsecure my stuff, logged on internet, put on Nocturne music from Chopin while I am writing my blogspot. Nice music... not forgetting, concurently makan serunding given by Kak Zurin.

I guess it's not late to say Happy New year 2009 to everyone out there coz if I'm not mistaken the last time I updated my blog was on new years eve. Wow... today is 5th January, Monday.. Time has passed very quickly and so fast. Yesterday was Nona's Birthday and I managed to greet her on sms as well as through msn.

There's so many stories to update and I'm not going to write everything tonight coz I am just tired. Sunday morning after breakfast, I had to say goodbye to Manchester and took 5 hrs train to London. Then I spent few hours pempering myself exploring London then I took a train to Portmouth approximately 1 hr and 10 minute. Not bad...SO it was quite hectic and long journey from Manchester to London to Portsmouth.

So when looking back where I started from Manchester, with my luggages, cramp in a bus, reading 2x newspapers, dragging my luggages to bayswater, missed train, waited another hour and very freezing cold.. I am now feeling grateful to be back here again in my cabin feeling so warm and very comfortable.....

I shall update more stories later when I get up...... hmmmmmmm I guessed I had a great Christmas leave and I could feel it the moment I touched here. Great ending!! Good night everyone.
