Well as it turns out I signed into messenger as 'on the phone but at this minute that is lying to all my faitful online friends. Lol the fact is, that I did just try and give JH a call but she aint home by the sounds of it. good luck to her, in all this rain but oh well! Lol .. I just did some more twinkling on the piano and it's soo cool; I am starting to sound more professional with my songs! Yesterday I did go to Burwood and we worked on a lot of intervals and key points of a scale, kinda trying to figure out how I'd play the same song in different keys (well I guess am doing more of that working out at home) and so that was cool, and BW and I started working out a piece (well I did - guess she brailled one each for us so she knew it Lol) and I have got it to work on this week. It is "Beethoven - slow movement( II)
From the 7th symphony. Kasshau book 2 pages 4 - 5
man it's like got 21 bars, probably, well it is in fact the biggest song I'll be learning using music.
I guess Read sing And Play has served its purpose in my life, even though i got it when i was like 13, 14, not having touched it after my teen-attempt at learning music for 10 years Lol, nearly getting chucked out before I moved here but then, was too sentamental about chucking all me memories out and placed it into my "for keeps" pile.
So yeah yesterday at Burwood I was also playing Greensleaves and, I was (and still have) been practicing on what I call a "professional left-hand accompaniment". and all these other well-known tunes which I am playing in other keys now! wohoo! it's so cool! And B was explaining to me how the double intervals worked since, I did kinda get it when JH tried to explain to me but then I kinda forgot. so now I can go on with my zizuki book too.
DH came in while I was there and despite her being the first one to go to with my renewed interest, I find i am really self-conscious and immediately stopped what i was doing when I heard her come in. (I spoke to her more the week before actually. I am soooo shyish sometimes) .. anyway .. I am also selfconscious it would seem when I am meant to be learning the piece for myself in front of B. for the reason, I sounded a bit sillier and more unknoledgable than i actually was, cos i like learning them at home without .. knowing that my stuff-ups will be heard. so hence I actually learn stuff a lot quicker at home! ..
anyway since obviously my lovely phone posts haven't been working properly of late, the week before at Burwood we did a lot of work on rhythms and timing and all that. then at the end I was getting all the extra dotty things explained to me from ecosaes in my zozuki book.
ah yes, so my phone posts have been acting weird lately. It seems that when I go to download them, they are only half there, and if I come back to try downloading again a little later, more appears but not all (as far as I know from last time anyway) so I'm thinking will give those things a miss for a while.
anyway this week was much internetness! mmm I've discovered that it aint my end which is having the connecctions to tpg. Tuesday it wasn't connecting, giving me the 'no dial tone" error, and then about an hour later, it connected out of it's own accord. Then had no other probs til this morning. same thing, so called dad and he came over, and just as he was looking at the two lights on the ADSL modem he said one green one was flashing then it came on. then my connection worked. so it's something to do with telstra's connection with my line I know it for sure now. so next time it happens I will call tpg back and tell them that. cos i couldn't confirm it the other day with them cos I "can't see any lights; I'm blind" he actually stopped repeating the question when I announced that I was "blind" not "vision impaired".
.. yeah apart from that, I called Lifeline and they sent me out some information and stuff which i left in dad's car from the other night when I was over there for tea, so got to get someone to read me the info. Also have been talking to DC about the radio course at CSA. I'm scared of Clarke but will call Monday I guess.
Have been on Ventrilo a lot lately talking to people like L, C, D, A, E, CH L, and J a bit(when he feels like it :( and a few more I'd say. (the lettering aint making much sense but oh well I know who I mean at least :) and been using skype a bit too. and I have really enforced that rule. i now do not reply to authorizations from anybody to skype these days cos random people annoy me, and especially when they don't bother to tell me who they are when requesting they got no chance at all!
Last Saturday was Bec's 21st at the Point overlooking Albert Park lake. that was a good day but I felt very crappy as it seemed I missed zoloft the day before!
Last night I felt crap too! about 10 my time [livejournal.com profile] sugar84 went to talk to me on ventrilo and I had been in bed listening to something on Englands Capital FM and all of a sudden felt really grumpy and real bitchy and didn't get up to talk. just fell asleep and woke later and turned my puter off! I've been weird lately but guess there a lot of things going on, or lack of anything - both really. I dunno life has been very puzzling of late (but when is it not?! so have been working through a bit and contemplating the future and all.
I think I have been caught up in a few zone dramas of late which I should stop doing. It seems that there are some people out there in this big bad world who have nothing better to do than to start dramas/fights by personally attacking people just because they can and they're bored! Of course "normal???" people can't take that, but I guess I must get use to it, and people will play with the net sometimes. I was having a discussion of sorts the other day in fact. people reacting/interacting online verses person and how different or similar they can be to different people. I say so often that with me "what you see is what you get" with me no matter if it is online.
OK I feel this was a little long and I'd probably prefer to keep these a bit shorter which means, I will hopefully feel a little more inclined to write in this a little more frequently than I have done so lately.
so til, ..

Thursday the 11th of the 11th was the anniversary of when I met gretel Killeen wohooo! man that was a good day (it's my one marked entry of my LJ thus far! :) I sooo wish she would write to me again! Last i heard from her was eleven months ago now. that was sooo nice of her I thought! I miss her! (hey G if you happen to be reading this, pleeeeease write to me. i sooo miss ya! :)
AN and I went to the pancake parlour in the city last Tuesday. man, those chicken pancakes; will never get sick of them! mmmmm baby! :) .. I am thinking of maybe having a christmas party there with all my old Swinburn friends. I do miss them!
and there was a bit of thunder here before. I could hear all these kids playing somewhere - oh my gosh, it just occurred to me after all this time of not knowing, that it's probably from the Mackers playground! ha! ge I'm vague!
