juz watched the movie, dreamgirls..
i tot that its a "based on true story" kinda show.. cos, there was this scene that show some characters that resemble the Jackson Five so much! well, i'm fooled.. haa stupid me.. maybe u can say its a "half-based on true story" show..
i actually tried to search for how the "real" deena jones look like.. hmm.. and i found this!

Blueridge BR343
mi new babe.. hope i can make full use of it at God's cause..
btw, happy lunar new year everyone!!!!!
The Blueridge BR-343 Gospel Model Acoustic Guitar is carefully crafted and beautifully adorned with traditional symbols of the Christian faith. A magnificent abalone and pearl chalice and cross design graces the headstock, while the fingerboard bears the ancient triple locked-ring symbol for the Trinity. The BR-343 Gospel Model is crafted with a select solid spruce top, hand-carved X-bracing, choice solid mahogany back and sides, and a traditional dovetail neck joint for pure Golden Era tone. The slim mahogany neck and comfortable 000-sized body make it a truly enjoyable guitar to play.
Blueridge guitars offer authentic vintage style with strict adherence to the spirit of prewar instruments. Reminiscent of fine American guitars built prior to WWII, Blueridge guitars are made with the same techniques as their antique counterparts, including many by-hand processes. Like the best instruments, Blueridge guitars aren't overbuilt; they're crafted to be light and resonant. Meticulous attention to detail and quality craftsmanship is evident in the traditional, forward-position, hand-carved parabolic X-bracing which allows the solid Spruce top to ring loud and true. Blueridge guitars feature a traditional dovetail neck joint, slim mahogany neck, adjustable truss rod, and butterbean-button, Kluson-style tuning machines with an updated mechanism for modern precision and feel.

"gooood moorning miss liu"
had an unforgettable experience this week.. to be exact.. monday and tuesday..
the story begin on saturday when qy ask me whether am i interested in this lobang from john to teach at some school.. i asked him to ask abt the details.. like.. where is it.. time.. pay.. etc etc.. so he called the person.. and the lady wanted me to call instate and than insist that i meet her in person the next day to talk abt the details.. ok.. so i did..
they are looking urgently for a full time guitar teacher to teach at some sec sch as their current teacher left without much notice.. we talked abt the details and i tot it was quite a good deal! so i agreed to TRY it out on mon and tue since i'm free for that 2 days.. (freaking last min) i told her frankly that can't agree to take the job straight away cos i have NOT handle such a big class b4.. and i have a "job" at hand also.. she gave me some tips on handling the "kids" and assure that i'll do fine.. i WAS Very thankful and scare, worried at the same time.. i told myself.. i can do it.. it was plan by God that i'm going thru this.. i started to recall how my sec sch teachers behave.. and learned them in my head.. hmm
well, i woke up very very early the next day cos i hav to reach the sch at 730am.. it had been a long time since i change job to wake up so early in the morning.. dark sky walking to the bus stop.. the always squeezy 854.. bright misty sky alighting the bus.. sleepy yet refresh feeling..
ok.. i'm talking to much.. not to the point.. haa
what i wan to say is... its a nightmare!!
i only tried for 2 lessons and i called the person in charge to reject the offer.. hahahahaaa.. i realli hav to pei fu the teachers at sch.. how did u do it?? i cannot handle them at all! (but of cos i kept my cool in front of the students) now i understand why they are paying the teachers that much...
whats more is that the sch is abit disorganise also lah.. gave me the wrong timetable... and didn't give me access to the music rm... i hav to get help from teachers passing by.. paiseh sia.. anyway, the person in charge asked me to help her relief for that 2 days.. and will pay me for it.. no choice.. help!
the 2nd day was better.. the students are more "ting hua" and not so noisy.. helped a real teacher to invigilate a sec5 math class test... (peep at the test paper.. i can't do them! haa) realli felt like a teacher for a moment when i heard the.. "goood moorning miss liu"... hahahahhaaaaa
i dunno why God let me go thru this event.. but i noe i will noe in the near future.. and i noe God didn't plan for me to take this job cos i had the "most difficult to handle class" for my first day first lesson!.. if i had the "most easy to handle class" for first lesson.. then i maybe considering to take the job man.. haaa *sweat*
unforgettable.. unforgettable..
teachers.. all my respect!
