Off Day 4 - Sunday, a day to remember

This is The Day. A day I would never dream to happen in my life - My first piano showcase. Although it was only a short period of 5 months since I learnt to play piano, I am very lucky to be given this opportunity to be part of this event. I treasure this and I appreciate it. I did not regret for giving up my Bangkok trip for this event.

Tonight, it was fun, it was nervous, it was heart warming. My hands could never stop trembling when I was up on stage, even during the rehearsals. I got to know these cool and nice people from my school whom I have never had a chance to talk to. I see so many family and friends who came to support us. The turned out was much better than what I expect.

Surprisely, I am no. 11 to be on stage. This is one of my favourite numbers since Secondary Two. That was when I got position no. 11 of the whole Sec Two level that year. A year that I worked the hardest during school days.



I did not do perfectly well that night but I am glad it went through smoothly. Same for everyone else that night. To most of us, it was our first showcase so we really couldn't hide our fear and excitement.



Thank you for everyone who gives me your support. I am still receving sms before my turn up stage. Especially Dino, even though you cannot make it to my showcase, but you told me you will be humming the song at home at the same time when I am performing on stage. That is so so nice!

Before I go on, just wanted to thank all these people in my life who have given me your support in one way or another:
