Achievement Unlocked!

After downloaded so many songs and 3 piano sheets, I decided to try out one of it. So I picked Yasashi Kimochi from Maid-sama. It is the easiest one among the 3.

Not forgetting, I decided to clear up my folder also. So I basically throw away all the old piano sheets, which is given by people... Mostly songs I am not really interested in. I only left River Flows in You and Canon in D.

Yasashi Kimochi basically means warm/gently atmosphere. In the anime, this music is usually played when Usui and Misaki are having their really sweet moments... The most memorable moment one of course is at the last episode, when they finally confess their true feelings and.... KISS~

I got so frustrated in the beginning because I just can't get the beats right, and always press the wrong key! I told myself, if you can't cope this song, don't talk about the others... I know, I certainly know that there are just too many good musics on the net which I want to try, really badly, but the difficulty level is out of my capability to do so... I took this song as my own exam, for sight-reading and presentation. Is really different from the usual pieces I played.

So far, I played mostly classical period songs, those old but grand pieces from famous composers like Mozart, Beethoven, etc. Those piece are far more complicated from the current age ones. A lot of turnings, dynamics and ornaments.

When I played Yasashi Kimochi, I feel so different. It is actually quite simple. The bass is just major chords and the melody is repeating, The style of the whole song is basically the same. Simplicity is beauty. I love this piece very much. After few hours of practice, I finally can play it! Not mastered, but at least I get the beats and keys right. The finger position troubled me the most in the beginning. Usually in the book, the fingering is given, by if you download pieces from net, it usually won't come with the fingering, you have to figure it out by yourself. So I just try and error lo...

1 down, 2 more to go. Muryoku Koritsu is the 2nd one I downloaded, from Maid-sama's too. Is more complicated one compared with Yasashi Kimochi. I thought a C major song will be easier... But I am so wrong... 3rd one will be Inshie Mahou from Fairy Tail. I didn't dare to flip to that page also...

I am a greedy person, now I discover another good piece from Maid-sama which is I'm Not Alone... The flows of music is really soothing... But it has 4 damn sharps! Never try piece with more than 3 sharps before... Challenge Accpeted? Maybe?

When Kaichou Wa Maid-sama intersects with Fairy Tail~

Insomnia! Slept at 2.00 am, got up at 4.00 am... =.=! Best thing to do when you can't sleep is? Internet on rescue!

Facebook is so so boring in the middle of the night... So decided to go and search up piano sheets for Maid-sama's OST. Thank God! Found a website which uploads piano sheets for musics in animes!

Ichigos Piano Sheet (Anime) 

But I just downloaded 2 only, because others seems pretty difficult (?) Well, actually I think if I put in effort, I can play the others too, since my sight read now is better than last time... But it will be really time consuming... Because:

1) College going to start next Monday (29/4/2013)!!
2) Sonatina Op.36 no.4, 3rd movement is killing! 2nd movement screwed up in the lesson =.=
3) PPT for Youth Camp not done!
4) Can't cope too many songs at once...

What is the intersect thingy I was talking about? Here is the chain effect...

While I was searching for the piano sheets one by one, I want to listen to the covers also. So, as usual, go to Youtube and listen. Then after finish, I saw Fairy Tail's OST too in the recommended list. In Ichigos, they also provide Fairy Tail's OST. I search one by one, listen one by one on Youtube... Then, I downloaded 8 songs from Fairy Tail .... HAHA ! Funny thing is, at first I actually wanted to search for Maid-sama's , but ended up with Fairy Tail's.... But, almost every piece composed by YasuharuTakanashi is really good..

Indulging myself in the music now~~ By the way, downloaded 3 song's piano sheets so far... Have to work hard! Gambateh!
