Just ate dinner, and the bloated feeling you get from your tummy is just so immensely satisfying that I don't feel like starting work yet: I'd probably shred the next manuscript paper I see to bits anyway. But I'm not going to grouse!
I won't be blogging about the post I made earlier, I'd save that for another time. Preferably when I'm all angsty from PMS-ing/lack-of-food. Anyway, here are some photos from last week:
Lou and her aria on the Sibelius programme.
Lou, Cla and I were recording songs from our Techniques portfolio in the SDR/Saint Davids Room. As much as I respect our fellow lecturers, I do understand that not everyone can sight-read perfectly *coughs*. So instead of having them read 5 different lines at one time, we might as well record it, eh?
Btw. Lou and I are pianists, and Cla's a soprano. Plug: Cla has this HUGE and GORGEOUS voice, which you don't expect coming out from someone so petite like her. Amazing, she's gonna be big someday.
That's Cla with her pencil, putting breathmarks in the music.
Our humble recording equipment, courtesy of Cla, since our lecturers only have cassette-tape players.
Oh alright, I admit it: none of us are techno-savvy enough to know how to record music onto mp3s/CDs/whatever. Cassette tapes are good enough, okay?? Though the sound quality is reminiscent of a historical recording dating back to the 60's.
Recording in progress.
I amused myself by honing my already-excellent photography skills and indulging in a bit of self-love.
Top of our ratty-but-passable Steinway piano.
I rule at taking photographs.
Check out the fishballs for cheeks!
Lou's mentioned that the Steinway is really shiny/grimy: you can see the reflected OHP machine above the keyboard.
Cla's french song - Harmonie du Soir. Professional, woot?
And we're done!
Oh, and Jing stayed over at mine last week, and we trooped down to Covent Garden for a spot of shopping:
My room is actually much neater, but you can't see it from this picture. Dang. Anyway, time's up, Procrastination has fled and Full Lynne Panic has settled in! (Only ppl who watch regular anime will get my last statement, ah well.)
Btw, I've yet to record my songs (they're still in the gestation stage somewhere in my head), so if anyone knows how to record music from laptops and convert them onto .wav/mp3 format, pls help me!
Ok ok, back to supper.. err.. I meant, Schubert.
