Maksim~Electrik

i would recommend this song above - The Gypsy Maid, from Maksim Mrvirca's newest album~Electrik.

seriously, this is no recent news. Its me who recently notice this 'news'.
Its like last year? when this album came out. very outdated i am.Can say that Croation Rhapsody, Cubana and the famous Flight of Bumble bee and etc..was the last i heard about him haha....

From this album, can see that some slow and sweet songs were produced, like In Paradisum, Beyond Rangoon,Child in Paradise...are some of them, rather than his famous fast tempo pieces. (er..Child in Paradise is still consider a fast piece, but sweet in the beginning. very enjoyable indeed)
There is also this special piece in here - Hall of the Mountain King, haha...can be heard in cartoons like Donald Duck , Mickey Mouse and etc..in some sort of crazy act scenes.very enjoyable!
Requiem, is the usual fast piece series. Fast tempo,hectic, majestic as Bumble Bee.
and the tango piece--Tango in Ebony, haha....just listen to the whole album and u will know what i mean!! can actually hear all the twist and turns in there. Play in loud when there is nobody alone. Its better to hear music without distraction.U can hear all the ups and downs, suspensions, climax, resolution..bla bla...so its best to be alone. but DONT SLEEP larr....-_-

The Gypsy Maid is my favorite in this album. Its lively, energetic ...I.....CAN'T explain it! just listen to it lar...

BUT STILL, i loove Croation Rhapsody the MOST!!! iT is from his first few albums --'The Piano Player' i think...



BTW, Maksim's a Croatian-born artist who was discovered by renowned producer Mel Bush, who has also discovered such crossover music stars as Vanessa Mae and Bond..though i m not a Maksim fan, still quite surprised that he is in the same company as BOND! HAHA....reco BOND next time...really nice too..thanks to y.chyi..haha..

by the way, this is BOND.

An all female strings quartet, focusing mainly on classical rock...

next time then.

my trip...to the saloon.

the guy actually asked me, "since when did you cut your hair?"

THEN only i started thinking about---WHEN was the last time....

and it is sooo embarrassing. my answer was....last year.
the guy gapped at me. erm..can say it is an expected respond.
i never even thought of 'whats going on' with my hair since last yr kayyy...

worst still, my hair has an extraordinary amount of 'strands', THICK and BLACK 'strands' millions, billions, zillionzzz and what ever -llionss lar!! which 'amused' the poor guy. u can see that the amount of my hairssss which was snipped off, scattered all around the floor , and in HEAPS .

SERIOUSLY, i really pity him. the scissor went snip, snip, snip, for like 45 min or MORE, NON-STOP. and my hair still look so thick. He did his best in trimming.i bet his hand aching like mad dy...

thats why i seldom get my hair cut--to prevent this kind of embarrassment. (lame excuse.) anyway, i dun like to get my hair cut, dunno why.
And i surprisingly made my decision to cut it SHORT.
lucky i was with sue....prevent me from turning back.
but the outcome was not bad lar, i quite like it!

After all his hard work of sniping and trimming, my hair is now short.
But still A LOT!!!!!!
Which he say----'this is the MAXIMUM already larr..' .....which i had to giv up lo..
haihz..just hope it will DROP OFF (not all though..leave some to cover my scalp will do.)
...genetic problem anyway.. my mom's hair is almost as thick as mine.
ANYWAY....., this 'guy, 'he' or whatever.. that i mentioned above, is super cute! or..i can say, very 'preety'? hmm..depends on your taste lar.. can say the whole shop is full of beautiful people, but sue likes him the most..haha...

Girls , or maybe boys.. who are interested can go to 'Wings' , which is infront of UPTOWN building.It's unisex.dun worry.

Nodame no Cantabile

Recently watched this japanese drama , and find it hilarious, and it was GREAT!!!
Jdrama addicts should watch!!

Just a simple synopsis:--

Megumi Noda, or "Nodame," is a piano student at Momogaoka College of Music. Although she is an extremely talented pianist who can play by ear, she can't read music. She also hates to take a bath or clean her room. For her daily meals, she usually grabs something out of her friend's lunchbox. Nodame soon falls in love with Momogaoka's top student, Shinichi Chiaki. Born into a musical family, he plays the piano and violin brilliantly. Although his major is piano, he has secret ambitions to become a conductor. Based on the big hit comic book by Tomoko Ninomiya, this is the comedy of two completely different personalities.

The main ochestra members..

And............the cute mascot!!!

It is not only meant for those who know music, overall, it is interesting!! and the story plot moves on preety nicely! The 2 main cast is exceptionaly CUTE! esp ueno juri, she really suits the character of Noadame, and Hiroshi Tamaki, quite different from other dramas he was in, took on the big role here!!

A must watch!!

Also, the uploads can be found in http://www.crunchyroll.com/ ....hahaha.... most of the piano/violin recitals are great!

*********************************************************************************

by the way, nodame in this drama really looks like my japanese host sister--miyo( the one on the left)




almost the same personality, more on the children site, can be really kiddy, loves all the kids food, and even looks alike with nodame in the series...haha...by the way, she is a speech therapist.like her alot!! haha..except the biggest difference between her and nodame is that her room is super neat and clean, totally opposite from nodame..and she will be coming to Malaysia this Dec!!!!!
