Random rantings on my rather routine life + more...

Well, not so routine maybe...... 

Today, went to the finals of  the ...
3rd ASEAN International Chopin Piano Competition
One word, after watching the finalists perform......................~~ breathtaking.
Each of them were all superbly wonderful in their playing..... very hard to distinguish between the good and the best. All were wonderful, and very young. Even though the competition was broken up into age groups, the participants for the junior category (primary sch age kids), played pieces that was far far beyond what I could manage..... Wow.... But some of the pieces they choose were very long and too soothing, that I dozed off more than three times.... (shows how good they are.... )=p (recordings were strictly prohibited, so can't show some pictures or vids) =c

One of the many pieces a lot of them played(love this piece. very nice.):

I dunno if any of them played 'til this perfect, but you get an idea how not-easy the piece is....

Anyways, after that...... I went shopping at the newest shopping mall in kl----- the Pavillion. Of course, with................................... my mom.... =p haha..... Just window shopping actually, since all the stores there sold branded goods ONLY---looking at stuff with horrifying price tags, pretending to try on some shoes that you know you'd never buy unless you win a lottery, even the food there was expensive (for a m'sian).... RM 9 for some char siew fan =O  (Don't compare with Sg. It will seem rather cheap)
Hypothesis: Rolex is an extremely expensive brand.
Observation: The store has 2 security guards (which will only let you in after some heavy scrutiny), plus, the storekeepers never take their eyes off you the moment you enter...
Conclusion: Hypothesis is correct. Rolex is an extremely extremely expensive brand.....
XD

Some pics from my phone.....
The first view u get after entering The Pavillion


Nice chandelier...... guess what its made of?


plastic water bottles. cool huh?


3 traffic lights of different height in case u aren't tall or short enough to see it

Well, that's all from today. Oh, did I mention that Microsoft Word CRASHED just when i finished doing my chinese article review? And, I was smart enough NOT to have saved it before. I spent a whole damned 2 hours doing that damned homework, now irretrievable. So now, I'll have to re-do that piece of crap. Great. Sooooooooo looking forward to that. (hint of sarcasm. No, not a hint actually, just plain sarcasm).

Well, i seriously have to sleep earlier...... and be more focused...... and enjoy my holidays more..... and use my computer less....... and excersice more..... and................
...
Never mind.
