My new sobriquet ♥





I have a new nickname! Thanks to my shanghai's friends. Lol.
They call me Princess Xixi, uhm.. in Chinese actually: 希希公主.

They tell me that there's a princess named 茜茜公主 in the history, so they think it really suits me. And they think I look like a princess. =.=''' I was like, aiyar... you guys blind ady or what? Lol.

Some of them even think I'm a mix-blood. And when I ask them what sort of mix-blood, they can't tell too. They just say I don't look entirely Chinese, like a bit Japanese that sort. :D Funny.

Today's my first time going to my teacher's house for violin tuition. ^^
His house situates just nearby the conservatory so I walk there.
:) And wow, his house is really nice. Very tidy and completely well-organized, with a touch of yellow light. ^^

Teacher is as patient and funny as ever. His eyes can be really big if he wants to make it, and his facial expression can't cease to make me laugh. It is especially funny when he imitates the expression of the piece, so as to let me understand better how to play it. LOL. :))) Love the lessons!!!

Once In a.... Month. :)



So whenever we need to have a delicate and well-embellished Fruit Delight Ice-cream, we'll have it if our fav leader is around!

There're 2 leaders in Citta Cafe. One is angelic, and another one, to my utmost disappointment, is totally devilish. :(

We love the angelic leader. He's always smiling and serves us himself as if we are 2 happy kids. :D Even when we online until the shop is going to close, he'll just say, "Take your time, no rush." And when he serves us, he'll raise up the plates and say, "So... whose dish is this?" with a twinkle in his eye. ^^

As for the devilish leader. He dislikes us onlining too long there. He'll give us his diabolical stare and scowls all the time. Anyway, we are his customers so he won't make it too obvious. We can still see that he'll get really gleeful whenever there's an internet problem in the cafe. He enjoys watching us staring at the "Internet Cannot Be Displayed", and sardonically says, "Well, you can try restarting your lappy, if it's still like that, I'm sorry I can't help."

And the sweet angelic leader will always rush to our rescue and fix the line as best as he can.

:D Since I got line in my room, so I don't need to go Citta so often.
Anyway, I will still go there once in a month for Fruit Delight! ^^ Wheeyyy~

Translator. :)

Aha~ So I can blog myself now. ^^ Great thing.
No need to be a troublesome geek who always bother dear Yingz. Hehe..



Here's a pic taken in the conservatory's concert hall yesterday evening.
Hai Peng invited us over there as he would be performing with his orchestra members.
They were the Chinese traditional orchestra and they did a pretty good job. ^^
The soloists were really cool too! :)

Sorry for the bad quality photo, it's just like a water-colour painting, thanks to my 2.0 mega pixels phone camera. :DDD




Today I went to watch a masterclass where one of my friends, Yudi was performing.
It was a masterclass given by Sergiu Luca. ^^
There was already a translator there, but it was a France-speaking translator.
And seemed like Sergiu prefered to speak English so he asked whether anyone knows English there.
I raised up my hand 15 seconds after seeing nobody reacted. XD

So yeap, I became the translator of the session. It was pretty fun actually.
And Sergiu was really humorous! ^^
There was a 10-year-old kid who played pretty good though his playing was pretty rough.
Sergiu asked me to translate for him dat people go to a concert to hear beautiful music, not to watch a boxing competition. And that he was playing just like a boxer, a very good boxer indeed! LOL.

Hmm... I'm onlining in Citta Cafe now. XD After like a week?? Since my room got that internet service, there wasn't a pretext for me to come to Citta again. Lol.

Just once in a month I guess. ^^ Still forgivable right? :D
