Well hello!

I know it's been ages since I last blogged but I have my reasons! Yes, the projects what else.

So what's been happening? Well taking the spotlight would be my birthday on the 25th September. I turned 17! =)) Sure feels different. Next year I'll be 18 wow.

So I celebrated my birthday at Tesselar Tulip Farm all the way at Lilydale... It included a time freeze of over 1 hour standing in the cold pouring rain amidst woods beside the road waiting for the bus to come take us home. Was quite the experience. Probably the most unique birthday every =.=;

During the night we had dinner twice at docklands. My birthday celebration went on from 12am where we opened the wine bottle till 12am the next day. You can imagine we were quite tired -_-;. Anyway I won't talk about my birthday anymore because it's been days since then.

Right now I'm supposed to work on another project but I'm too lazy!!! I'm beat... I slept at 4.30am yesterday working on my website... The whole day I spent really active... I didn't play Sims 3 at all surprisingly.

Morning - went to Collingwood
Noon - modelling for Listy
Night - web design

So yeah the second one is what I'll be blogging about. Listy had this fashion illustration project and so I became a model for the day. Yay.

Simply. In Love. With that video!!!

I mean WOW, I think Colin Jacobsen (the violinist) really nailed this violin version (by Sarasate) of Chopin's Nocturne Op.9/2. I was trying to find the violin music score for several hours but couldn't find it. (Not that I expected my humble self to be able to play it, but I wanted to see it nonetheless)

Seriously. I have no idea where to buy violin music sheets here in Jakarta. I mean I see piano books a lot. But violin... unless I missed it when I was in the Yamaha store, it really is nowhere to be found. And Gramedia is hopeless. Try looking for music books in Gramedia, you will see what I mean. It is pretty pathetic the music books they have there. And not to mention they are all for piano, and a few guitar.

Speaking of piano, if you noticed, I cancelled out 'have piano lesson for the first time' off my wishlist. Well, it doesn't mean it's done, actually, I don't wish for it anymore. In fact, I want to cancel my application. Thank god I haven't paid for it.

Why? Let's just say 3 hours in Susan's house exposed to the piano and trying to play Nocturne Op.9/2 killed me. Yes, I know I should start off with an easy song first, but still. And plus, if you think about it, like Martin said to me today, December = lots of holidays. Mid-Feb = leave for Australia. So I'll just be wasting my money!

Therefore I shall stick to my beautiful violin. After playing the piano for a little while, I realised I like the violin better. Lol maybe it's because I can play it better than the piano obviously, but I just like the METHOD of playing the violin. I hate separating my mind into two different bars of notes like in piano. And in some songs, the violin sounds more passionate, and I like it that way.

On the other side of things, I had this sudden urge to google for RMIT students for some reason. I found several interesting things.

One, I have decided which club I want to join later on! Check out this .pdf file, which contains the whole list of clubs:
