學鋼琴

今年年初,哥哥開始學鋼琴。我會陪他練琴。

慢慢,我對鋼琴的興趣越見濃厚,常常拿著哥哥的琴譜,敲起琴鍵來。

衡量過自己能否持之以恆地上堂,以及有否熱情去練習之後,我也學起鋼琴來。

現在已學了四個月,熱情絕對沒有退卻,而且越學越喜歡。

向來喜愛classical東西的我,順理成章學傳統經典的琴譜。老師買了Grade 2的書給我,她說對我來說可能難一點,不過她會教慢一點,讓我有時間練多些。揭到第7頁, wow, 是Bach 的Menuet! 我有機會彈Bach的歌了!!很高興!

現在,弟弟也學起琴來,是他要求的。希望好快,妙曼的樂韻每天也在我們家縈繞著。

Four Little Flowers

Here are four of us.  The 'Four Little Flowers'.

The baby boy there is my younger son.  Okay, he is no longer a baby, he is a young man.

Anyway, this blog is dedicated to the 'Four Little Flowers'.

We are cousins and sisters, we grow up together.  We meet several times a year for family gatherings or festival celebrations.

We are in similar age (well, I admit there is 8 year difference between the eldest one, that's me, and the youngest one, my younger cousin.)

We have diversified personalities, we walk on different life paths. Each of us have our own stories, our joys and sadness.  When I look at this picture, I see a lovely novel, an interesting movie.  I praise the difference we have and the harmony between us.

There is no single formula to thrive a life, to pursue your dream, to love what you have, to be brave and open-minded in front of hurdles, then, we all four little flowers can be in blossom beautifully!!

I love you all!
