the thought of you leaving, unbearable.



You know what I think is funny? Well, it may not be as funny to all of you, but I think it is. I have been trying to play the piano for over ten years now (without anyone teaching me) and all I can play is Fur Elise. And thats only the FIRST part. No, that is not ALL that I can play. The beginning to Moonlight Sonata, all of Symphony No. 9, Etude 3, and the Entertainer too! Some small game music, like TETRIS! I mean, really, who doesn't love tetris?! To the right is my beloved instrument. This is my Yamaha PSR-175. They don't make keyboards like this anymore! It has its own DJ feature (I think it was one of the firsts), preset tunes, left and right hand learning, recording, and it even came with 100 built-in songs! I just love this keyboard.






But I think, out of all the classical music in the whole world, Fur Elise has to be my favourite. To the left is the exact sheet of the song, Fur Elise, that I have (only the beginning part). It may seem confusing to people who dont read notes but thats ok! This song is just so beautiful, and so well known! Anyone who hears the first part, and instantly they recognize it! Thats what I love about this song. Hey, do you guys remember that old friend I was telling you about in my older post? The one that likes astronomy too? Well he taught me how to play this one song, and I've been getting a whole lot better at it. He made it up, and I absolutely love it. I even remixed it a little, made it a bit of my own. Ever since he showed me that song, I have played it, everyday. I never missed one day. You guys need to hear it. Maybe one day :D.


At the moment, I'm trying to learn some other songs to play on the keyboard. Some anime songs. I guess. You know, the more I think about it, the more it gets to me... I've been trying to play this instrument for ten years and look how far I've gotten. NOWHERE. I need to have someone teach me.


Until next time.
