Today is the first performing Mahler's Third of this orchestra. Not so good but not too bad. Everyone seems satisfied because they worked hard. Thus, this not their best. We can do better. Hoping tomorrow will a successful performing. 

I took some pictures with Pascal, a French cellist, some Norwegian friends and my parents. They will be posted if I get free time. :D

Tonight, I saw Bông, a son of a cellist in orchestra who I knew him in Toyota tour last year. He is taller and busier with senior year high school curriculum's. I talked so much with Lỳ, Bông's younger brother. He is only 10 years old but so smart and cute. He sings in the boy chord in this Symphony. Ohhh how lovely he is! I dreamed to have a younger brother like him but...let's keep dreaming =)) 

Tomorrow, so lucky, I'll meet so much more friends who I really want to talk with because so long time no see.

See you there all my friends. >:D<

Randomly, listen to some piano works, hearing Prelude's Rachmaninoff no 23, so familiar, evoke a fond of remembrance about you, you used to play this work for me. Ohh miss you so much... :((

Remembering each time you playing a piano for me, how sweet it is.

Switching replay this work so many times, but cannot alleviate this feeling...How sad.. :(

Come back here, please! miss so much your face, your voice and your attractive piano's sound.

Today is so tired, practising with the orchestra all day long. 

Tomorrow is Sunday still keep practising with boys chord.

Gotta 1 more day for preparing concert. 

Humm try to relax and get your image out of my head...I won't think about you any more... too bad!

Sorry and thank you

Today, I've gotten an immoral lesson about say apologize and thanks. You will think it's simple but let's think back. I'll tell a story about how is polite and impolite? It's really difficult to say that in exactly time and exactly condition. In a very short moment, you forget at fault and you'll become an impolite person who you never think you are. Of course it's callous unintentional. No one hopes becoming an impolite person. :))

I've off this morning rehearsal at VNSO for history of music class and cello class. Afternoon, unfortunately I got no transportation to VNSO so I had to wait my father taking me there. I was late...what a shame! the conductor was so indisposed and waiting for me. God!!! I forget to apologize him because of my late. It's very normal for musicians there if I don't have any word. But at the end of rehearsal, I came to our conductor and apologized him. And all the words he said were surprised me. "You know I'm very happy because there was no one like you in this orchestra. You're the first one came late, felt sorry and say it to me. It's OK but never late again." Do you exactly understand what he implied? I really do. It's sad fact to Vietnamese. 

I was waiting so long for my father this afternoon, it was rain and the rehearsal was end earlier. 

Phuc, another cellist in my orchestra, so nice and ask me to take me home. I was so bad...forgetting say thanks to him. :( Oh I hate my self! How can be so impolite like that...God! just like an uneducated child... :((

Today, I talked with an Swedish Trombone player, he talked to me about Vietnam and China. Personally, I think he was disappointed with Hanoi a little bit. And he said that the orchestra in Ho Chi Minh city is much better than this orchestra. So surprised and so sad...But I understand...working with this orchestra...shallow concentration and some people are so impolite, irresponsibility, do not deserve to be professional classic musicians. :(

Some pic from friends

Hoping that the Fourth always be happy!!!

Monday is the busiest day of week, for me and everyone. Today is so exhausted that I cannot stand anymore. But the sad fact is still waiting for me tonight, my TOEFL ibt class. :(

Yesterday was the first time I drove a motorbike for 30km out of Hanoi to Dong Anh, join in my sis and bro's mid-Autumn celebration. That's crazy to think back. I've gotten back home this morning at 8 a.m to lift my cello and drove a bike again to Vietnam Symphony Orchestra for rehearsal ending at 11h30'. That's is not the worse. 

Afternoon, not only I but also many musicians get tired and complained about the broken air-condition. It didn't work so it's really hot and weary. Some students who play percussion didn't come and no permission. Everybody said they have no idea but I know they stuck on school with a load of lessons to have. Some others cannot focus on what they have to play exactly and forget looking at the conductor. That was so terrible. And Tetsuzi Honna, the conductor looked so tired and disappoint, frustrated, get angry a little...no I think he tried to calm down and very indisposed. Moreover the chord cannot sang exactly the intonation, so sang and sang again, the musicians play and replay...so exciting! :))

It's not the most interested show! The percussion is lack of people so Mr. Ngo Hoang Quan, the director of VNSO, a cellist also, has to play the Tubular bell. That's cool but I really appreciated his enthusiastic and talent also. 

Honna is a very patient and tolerant conductor, poor him! working with these Vietnamese musicians...:)) big...no...have to say: an enormous attempt! 

Ohhhh! Gotta go now! I get a class at 6.30 pm but it's a long way....Haizzzz! Now I recognize how my rest worth! See ya...

PS: wanna hug you so much my friends...!

Genius Kids

Tonight, I've just chatted with 2 close friends, both of them... I think they are the most sweetest and the most intelligent kids that I've ever known. They are all at the aged of 16 and 17 but understand completely their vital role on studying and working. I have to declare that they are motivated and ambitious....big love with the piano!

Look back my-self...I can't waste time any more! I have to work and work, work more effectively. 

Tomorrow will be busy day...go to sleep now...

PS: Love you so much my friends!! all of you

From today I'm going to change blog's position from yahoo to blogger. But I believe that I still keep contact to yahoo 360, there are so many friends who I can't not unvisited. 

This will be a real diary, that means I'll try my best to write every day and be honest. It sounds so easy but it's really not. Writing something I reallly think about but it has not bothered to someone else.Today is weekend but I still get an English class at night.   Moreover, it's TOEFL ibt class, hummm! so difficult and exhauted.
