Flute 01


       I haven't been posting anything for 3 weeks or more and this blog seems to be getting dusty. *Cough*
                    This year, I joined the Boy's Brigade in my school. When I first joined the Boy's Brigade I tried the saxophone but there was not enough ligatures. I waited for it until last week. I decided to change to the flute. The flute I was given was labelled FL01.
       The flute is rather light compared to my Tenor saxophone. It is an aerophone unlike the other woodwind instruments in this brass band. 
       I can hardly make any sound with the flute. I hope practice makes perfect. It is such a nice instrument and I can blow through the mouthpiece bit by bit but when I attach it to the whole thing I get nervous when pressing the buttons and forget how to blow it. 
       I keep on whistling due to accidents but otherwise it sounds kind of nice if nothing goes wrong. I like my new instrument very much because I can finally try to play something in the band but I don't know much yet. I only know how to blow the flute(sometimes) and the first note. I only hope I will be able to be part of the band in the competition this year.

The Snow Village / Snow Town/ 雪乡 (CNY Trip 2012)

Image
We took a 5 - hour trip by bus to from the city of Harbin to the snow village. When we arrived, I was awestruck by the beauty of the snow in this district. At the same time, I was also shivering at the village because the temperature there was around -30 degrees Celsius'The snow that gathered on the dead trees make them look like snow toadstools. A lot of snow seemed to fall in this village and I once appeared to have my left foot buried deep in snow when I was caught unaware while walking around the village. The thick snow present in trees and piles of snow hovering on each and every roof is brought in by the 8 months of winter experienced by the inhabitants of the snow village every year. This is me trying to make a snow angel on snow but it failed as there was not enough snow. 
Many winter games can be experienced here from riding on huskies tobogganing and skiing while sitting but the snow village sure demands for a price. Every activity cost about 100yuan.

We managed to capture a…

Gem Island Trip from 19-09-09 to 22-09-09

Image
During Hari Raya, our school has an extra holiday for a week.
Our family joined the church cell group to a 4days 3nights
trip to Gem Island, Terengganu. That was an awesome trip,
from morning until evening we went snorkelling. Our
leaders are Uncle Andy and his wife, Pastor Elaine. They
are experienced and they taught us a lot of skills in
snorkelling. We stayed in Gem Island Resort & Spa.
That is the only building and resort on this small island,
although not many Malaysians know this island but it is
well-known by other countries. We found a lot of foreigners
especially Japanese tourist at the resort.

p/s: too bad.... We can't bring along our camera with us
while snorkelling, so we didn't capture any snorkelling photos

It was the jellyfish season during our trip. My cousin was
seriously stung by a jellyfish (as shown in the picture above)
Luckily, Pastor Elaine told us that lime cures jellyfish stings
and we have to apply it to my cousin's leg.

The photo on the left: I found that …
