music
music rocks my world. seriously it does. i would die if music died out. i can't live without music. wonder how i ever lived the first 10 years of my life without music. hahas okay that was emo...
i play the cello and i love the instrument. with it's sombre and rich voice (i love sad music, btw, and it's one of the best instruments for the job) it is not really all that famous (a lot of people mistake it for a guitar!!!) but it is quite popular in the music world. it can be found both in western and eastern music, along with only two other instruments: the double bass and percussion. even though i am only at a miserable grade five standard, i have gotten to really appreciate the cello. i am now frantically saving up to buy a second cello, which will hopefully bring me to greater heights.
the cello is not the only instrument i play, though. i also play the guzheng. it is an eastern instrument, and is described to produce the sound of flowing water when played. it is a very nice instrument, and i love it. as yet, i am not sure i love it as much as i love the cello, as my guzheng skills are not very good, but i will never give up learning the guzheng. i will persevere, and build up my guzheng skills.
i have devoted a lot of time to music since i joined Evergreen Primary School, and have not regretted a bit of it since. i hope my brother will join Chinese Orchestra, too. he is showing some interest in joining already.
EYE DO. <3
