Mujik Lessons

Inspired by Sungha Jung, we went scouting for music classes for Gooly yesterday.

He wanted violin primarily, but decided to give piano a try as well.

The teachers speak very little English, and I had to accompany him to do the half-past-6 translation for them.

First the piano...

Teacher: This one DO, say DO..

Gooly: DO *very tak semangat*

Teacher: This one RE, say RE..

So on and so forth, until we completed until SO.

Do, re, mi, fa, so~

So, fa, mi, re, do~

His fingers were not very willing to listen to what his brain instructed. So what can be heard in the room was: Do, Do, Re, Mi, Mi, So, So ~ And also these:

Do, re, mi *Mahmee, I am thirsty..*

Do, re, re *look left look right*

Do, re, mi *Mahmee, where is papah?*

Do, mi, mi *I'm tired, mama*

HOI! DUN PRAY PRAY AH, GOOLY!
***
Next is violin. Lagi dahsyat!

Teacher : 123, 4, 5

Gooly: Why?

Mahmee: No need ask why. Just do what the teacher says.

*Tau tap tap (head hung low), fu tiao tiao(muka masam)*

Teacher: 123, 4..5 (suppose to tarik longer at the count of 4 and 5 la)

Gooly: Mahmee, this is a piano (pointing at the he-doesn't-need-to-notice instrument)

Mahmee: Do you like this lesson?

*Tau tap tap, fu tiao tiao*

Ok la ok la! Jom balik makan KFC! No need suffer!

Some more got the cheeks to say: Mahmee, I think I want to learn guitar..

D'oh!

Note: The teacher quite pretty woh.. how come he is not interested one...?

aiyah.. sungha, needs to train 1 hour daily and 3 hours during school holidays.. you can tolerate the "noise" from gooly or not?? spare your ears, it's a good thing he's not into it after all, huh?

i think enrol into ballet dancing better, more kaului practising there, same age also, better than 20 years apart. aunty la lu.
