numbers having genders

"Each number has its own personality - masculine or feminine, perfect or incomplete, beautiful or ugly."

-Pythagoras

Well, if Pythagoras said it it must be true. :) I personally think that -

1 is a male
2 is a female
3 is a tomboyish female
4 is a female
5 is a female
6 is a female
7 is a male
8 is a male
9 is a female
0 is a male

Hmm, I have a lot of females on there. lol Apparently even though this totally makes sense to me some people think that numbers having genders is crazy. Anyway.

What I'm wondering, is if numbers has its own personalities, then how come 7 ate 9? :P

I just wanna jump. JUMP! :D

WHEEE! I'm really excited! (warning, when I'm excited I tend to use caps. lol)

...because the results for my Gr. 4 Piano Practical exam has come out and I'm so happy because I got a... DISTINCTION (136 marks)!! WOO! :D The fact that it's my first exam makes it all the more wonderful. The only thing that pulled me down was my sight-reading (15/21 marks). I thought I would have gotten better marks but oh well.

However, my Aural was FULL MARKS!! (18/18) So that's awesome. My scales went a lot better than I thought they would on the day so the mark that I got was awesome (18/21).

Luckily the examiner didn't say anything about me not bringing the book. LOL So I got 28/30 for the Bach my 1st piece, 29/30 for the Vaughan Williams, my 2nd, (I'm kinda surprised at that one, actually), and 28/30 for the Bartok, my 3rd.

Went to watch Harry Potter yesterday. :D I really enjoyed it. Liked it a lot more than the 4th and 5th ones, actually, maybe it's because (as people have said) it's a bit more of a chick-flick with all the romance. lol

Anyway, Josh did really well on his exam as well, with 138 (distinction) marks. :D He said that he was just hoping he would pass. lol

Woot!

boom, boom...




It's scary, man.

So on Thursday Mum noticed smoke coming from the kitchen (the kitchen is where all the main switches are). After some experimenting, we discovered that it was the heater.

As we are rather kiasu lol, we decided to not sleep with the a/c on that night, and thank goodness we didn't, because when the electrician came over, he showed us a red wire which had burned and was now black, and he said that if it had touched the wire next to it, we would have gone ka-boom!

Okay, I didn't explain it very well, lol so here's a picture.



Better safe than sorry.

8 days a week... or 6, rather

6 days ago I took my Piano Gr.4 exam. :D It went pretty well, I mean, it was over very quickly. The only thing was I forgot the book that had the alternate piece. the Bartok. ooops.


5 days ago was the 1st Annual Grand Piano concert hosted by the Chopin Society. It was scary, we were bumped up to the 1st performance because Twinkle, Twinkle was moved to the 13th instead of being the 1st. We didn't start together, but after that it was okay, I think. However, my fingers were ever so slightly frozen because backstage it was freezing.



It was much fun, though I didn't get to listen to the rest of the Junior concert cause I was in the dressing room, where it was pretty hot because our particular dressing room's a/c was not working. But after the blizzard of back stage it was just perfect for me. lol

Well, a chess game awaits (I'm gonna get trashed). :) Bye for now!

onezbom has added you as a friend!

I've moved! :) Whatever sadness I felt about it has gone because... we painted the walls! Goodbye faux-wallpaper-paint!

But I am dead tired after moving. Because it was only from the 6th floor to the 4th, we kids had to help carry stuff down. A lot.

And we have internet! An internet that drops off a lot, but internet, nonetheless.

I'm reading Eldest, the second in the Inheritance series. It's awesome.

I just discovered Nodame Cantebile!

You know how we're moving downstairs? Well, it's been delayed because we decided to paint the house. It looks a lot nicer now though. :D

So because we're moving, we ordered for our internet to be cut then turned on again at the new place. We ordered to be cut on 29th April. It got cut 11th May.

So now I'm at McDonalds. Internet should be back max. 3 days time. So... yeah.

Tuesday, April 28, 2009

so no one told me it was gonna be this wayyy...

We are moving! But just two floors down so it's not so major. lol. Still, it'll be pretty hectic. We may paint the walls which would be cool. :D

Watched the finale of Chuck yesterday. It was "awesome". haha. ha. yeah.

So anyway, AI in half an hour!

...

Happy Earth Day everyone!! I'm wearing my green RESPECT YOUR MOTHER with the earth logo on the t-shirt. :)

And I'm typing on an iMac. Which is not very green, but cool all the same! It's not mine sadly, it's my mum's friend's.

I REALLY hope Allisone Iraheta from AI does not get eliminated. Now that the judges save has been used. It would suck.

And... well I don't really have anything to make this post interesting... except... everything looks so cool on an iMac. ...don'tcha think?

Did you know...

...people who use dishwashers save water? You did? Well I didn't. But that handy tip will... er, come in handy when it's Earth Day. Which it will be soon, on April 22nd.

I shall wear one of my many Go Green-ish t-shirts. And try to save water and electricity and not rip up paper randomly while laughing evilly. Not that I do that anyway, but you get the idea.

i'm lifting you up, i'm letting you down, i'm dancing til dawn, i'm fooling around...

We made Tong Yuen the other day. :D

Up close.

The colouring and chopsticks and water and the dough plate. (from Heritage hotel, yes. XD)



Boiling. :)


Remember that infamous scene in Star Wars where Jabba the Hut kidnaps Princess Leia? lol Well, Josh and I (I found the parts, Josh did most of the actual work lol.) built a Lego version. It was pretty complex, but cool. :)

i'm moving through the crowd...

Woo! New internet! Yesterday we got Josh a new phone, it's really cool, a Nokia Xpress music and it's red and nicer than mine and I'm a tad jealous. lol

so anyway, the shop where we bought his phone had Celcom broadband wireless and since our streamyx dropped off yesterday, we decided to switch to Celcom! However, it's rather slow, so we'll see...

Anyways, before that, we went to Ikano Power Centre to buy a guitar for Josh and I (yesterday was the day of new things lol) and to get some internet from starbucks because our internet was out, when Dad saw a RM1 Char Koay Teow and Sri Penang!

Sure it wasn't as nice as some coffee shop Char Koay Teow, but for one dollar it was pretty good hey. :D




And I got a hair cut! Though you can't really see in that pic. And my hair looks all flat. :( lol First time I cut it this short since I was like seven.

Eek, I'm nearly out of battery, okay, till next time!

right now, all your dreams are waking up...

CARRIE UNDERWOOD WON THE ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR!

For those of you who don't know, I am a HUGE fan of Carrie Underwood, ever since American Idol. This is quite a big milestone for her because the last time a female artist won this award at the ACMs was in 2000 by the Dixie Chicks. :D

So... yay!

Anyway, American Idol was yesterday, and apparently Adam Lambert was spectacular. I wouldn't know though, as AI was cut short before we got to see him. lol but, never fear, there is always youtube.

Yesterday we went to Allegro to play our duet for Prof. Panovska. You see, in June there will be a piano festival in the KLCC convention centre. Josh and I will perform our duet at the same time with three other pianos. Yeah, scary. lol

Anyway, yesterday went a lot better than I thought it might. I think we were quite in sync with the other pair, two kids who are also home schooled. :) Thankfully I think we didn't speed. lol You see, when I play the piano, violin or heck even sing I speed. So does Josh.

Speeder + Speeder = tempo of about 180. lol Srsly. It's a tad frustrating. But I think we were quite in sync with the other



I've been craving food lately. All sorts of food. Indian food, italian food, japanese food, even chinese food. Mmm, pasta... I wonder if I'm going through a growth spurt...

This is like, my 3rd draft.

So apparently, it's not April Fool's (yet), nor is it Merdeka. I feel so confused. XD

Maybe I'm just in a festive mood. lol

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

(well, it's kind of like always Christmas in the south & north pole so this one in slightly legit?)

I'm sick. It sucks.

Excuse my grammatical mistakes in my previous post, it was late, I was tired. Yeah.

:) <3

My mouse is broken. :( But the pebble that was under my "ctrl" button is gone! Yay!

Oh, but my mouse doesn't work anymore. Boo. Aaaand, I'm losing in Monopoly (Malaysian Edition :D).

I'm performing tomorrow, technically today, lol. Six Hands, Chamber (yeah, I didn't think so too), Strings and Choir.

I just became nearly bankrupt. In Monopoly, that is. lol It's not fair, Josh is totally dominating the game. Even Ashley owes him RM2,000. I owe Iza... RM220. Bella is the banker, which makes it Bank Of Bella (BOB).

Oh, man, it's pretty late. I would go to sleep if not for someone. *coughashleycough*

Okay, I'm going green and is turning of my computer. Till next time!

You're the new classic...

Yay! My short story for the MPH competition is finished. And by finished I mean final draft, ready to print. :D

Do YOU Twitter? If so, add me = http://twitter.com/simyixian

But, er, let me know who you are, because I may think you're a random stranger that added me for the heck of it. But if you're someone that I know that added me for the heck of it, that's cool.

In other news, my "ctrl" button is broken. :( There's a small pebble under it. I don't know how it got there. lol

Aww, my little brother's growing up. *tear*
