Torrelli's Pizzeria

So today we went to Torrelli's Pizzeria as planned. Did the music skills test first at the con together with Derrick, Queenie, Nicola and Andrew. Dickson couldn't come due to some illness. I thought the test was ok, although some parts were a bit unclear. After that we went to the library. I checked out a few scores but I have to check out a few books tomorrow.

After that we went to Central to meet the others. The train journey to Parramatta took just slightly less than half an hour. It was the bus trip that seemed to take ages. We took a T80 bus to Bonnyrigg (where the pizzeria is). It took nearly an hour of bus trip before we get there. And when we did, we still need to walk another 15 minutes or so. It was pretty long journey indeed, by railway, bus and walk!

But it was worth it. When we arrived, a young man greeted us. It was Roberto, one of the worker there, not related to Mario. He knew that we were coming, because Mario told him. He told us that Mario is delivering some pizza. Haha, just the thought of our English teacher morphed into a pizza boy made us chuckle.

Then Mario came back, of course, the whole pizzeria became even noisier than when we first stepped in. All of us shouted, "MARIO!!" And you can see laughs from other people in the room. Oh yeah, Gina, Mario's wife came back first and she is such a charming and bright person.

After ordering our pizzas, we talked more and ate and all of that. During our meal, Mario had to go out and send more pizzas. It seems like that place is pretty busy, and it seems like there were more delivery than eating in.

Nicola, as usual, did embarrassing things. Kept asking Roberto to tell her how to say things in Italian, like "Vostra Ristorante e bellissimo," or "Vorrei un gelato ciocolato per favore," to name a few and excuse the spelling, for I can't really spell Italian.

At the end of the meal we took photos and paid. After a brief chat with Mario outside, we walked back to the stop.

So today was a really fun day!

After that, we went to Dennis' place. A few people drank already but the late comers (us) didn't drink. Good! Played a bit of monopoly, and I lost badly! Queenie won badly! Grr.... Oh well, and then after a few while I just decided to go home. I need rest from today and I need rest for tomorrow!

In that case, g'nite mates.


Mario, Gina and all of us!

More Exams...

Yes, I do look happy, don't I, Steph... But MORE EXAMS!!!! Tomorrow. Derrick just called me after his audition, which went bad according to him, which means it went all right. So, he told me that I can take the musicianship test tomorrow. Queenie, Derrick, Dickson and I already confirmed that we are doing it tomorrow. Nicola and Andrew, don't know yet, but they will most likely be doing it tomorrow at 1pm too.

Derrick mentioned to me that there are a lot of people who are interviewing for the composition program too. I am now a bit worried, but I will leave it to God. I'll do my best and it is His choice whether He wants me to do composition here or not.

Alright, on to the next topic, going to Mario's pizzeria tomorrow! After the bloody exam! Grr. Yeah, it's gonna be cool! Hooray! At least for a while.

Doesn't matter, I'll try to go to the beach again today... =p

Messiah Chorus Practice

After the going-to-the-beach incident, I went to choir practice. The choir seemed so unusually extra draggy all the time tonight. It's almost like the accompanist and the conductor was beating a few millisecond before us (well of course due to the fact that we are slow).

Well, the usual stuff happened, we practiced the whole thing and it ended gorgeously at the Amen Fugue. Oh how I love the music! So, next practice on Saturday will be at Shore School together with everyone! All the massed choir, I think there are two more venues till today, so it should be a lot of people!

I am not exactly excited or looking forward to tomorrow's piano practical. I haven't practiced at all and it is going to be a miracle if I can pull through it without a mess. But I am expecting a miracle! *wishful thinking* And I'm going to thank God for that first! Haha.

Cooking for lunch tomorrow. Should be good, hopefully it's not uncooked.

Dinner

Oh I cooked dinner. It was a random dish. Chicken + some vegetables and rice. I put too much corn starch and the sauce looked like mucus (thanks Steph). But it tasted good.

Church tomorrow! Yipee.

Lunch - Japo Burger

Made some Japanese burger for lunch just now =P

Here's the pic.


An unconventional way to cook the sides -_-


Yatta!

Well, I went out to buy some stuff we needed and it seems like I gave Cindy the wrong instructions... We ended up fighting and shouting. Hahaha... Coz she put the cabbage in the mix. Ugh. But it was fine in the end, fought for no reason lol.
