Following Stella’s footstep, I have also officially accepted U of T’s offer on the OUAC page. Ahh… I cannot wait to get my TCard on the 20th. Jing said that she also decided to go to U of T instead of Waterloo and she’ll be renting a place there as well. So nice, now I have two places to crush. Ha. Jing also said, she’ll be coming to the banquet. =)
I was just browsing people’s MSN spaces on my contact list and somehow I was redirected to the Chinese fob community - and mainly fobs from mainland China. Goodness, sometimes I’m just so very thankful that Woburn isn’t full of fobs, I can’t imagine what it’d be like if I were in.. say, A.Y. Jackson. I’d have long dyed yellowy hair, PMall as my permanent dwelling place, cut 3 of my fingers to always have the “V” sign, take lots of fobby gross narcissistic web-cam pictures with pouting lips, contrived ‘cute’ postures, speaking like a 4-year-old girl. Ah, I’d kill myself before I get killed. I don’t get some mainlanders, they come here and they wanna be like HK fobs. I mean, if you wanna be fobs, at least be mainland fobs; have some mainland pride. Geez.
Ken and I were having a good discussion on how a pianist can gain money. In a music school, piano major is very profitable because nearly all other instrumentalists need a piano accompanist for final exams and such. Heehee… A friend of mine who’s in such environment told me that the saddest major, in terms of spending money, would be the composition majors - if they compose a piano piece, they pay 1 person; a violin sonata, 2 persons; a quartet piece, 4 persons; an orchestral piece, a whole bunch of people. It’s general consensus that it’s very hard to earn a living from being a concert pianist, so I must prepare more back-up plans. After all, working is a means of getting money, getting money is a means to travel and to live the kinda life I like. I’m glad I wasn’t born to realize the ludicrous importance of money - although sadly I pine for it so very badly when I need to go shopping.
The hardest part of La Campanella? It is sitting through the waist pain when the body is leaning towards the right side for a few mintues to practise. Rach 2 is fab though, it makes me forget all the crap that I either consciously or unconsciously think about. Really, when you’ve got music, what more can you ask for?

I have also officially accepted U of T’s offer
Brrrup! Mad props.
I’m wondering how the piano major business works out in post-university life given the popularity of the instrument with students for, among others, the very reasons you give.
One might even hazard the guess that the people with less versatile instruments - say, for instance, the oboe - might be more in demand simply because there are fewer of them.
Really, when you’ve got music, what more can you ask for?
Money? Sorry, I’m a bit giddy.

Apparently it said on its page that they got some ‘unwanted attention from the hackers’ so they had to upgrade they software/system. Er.. I have thought about moving, but I seriously am scared of getting accusing comments on that move =P What more can I do besides being more understanding? *sigh*

I know this post is a little old.. but whatever… heh, most of my friends are from AY Jackson. I know like everyone there… and man… there sure are a lot of fobs. And not just the kind that kinda like anime and dye their hair. It’s the whole nine yards over there… there’re even some full ganguros down there. Also they’re all mainlanders there too! Kinda backwards…
