Composition Concert

Tonight I went to the composition concert at my campus. It is a concert for the composition class.
There were about 13 people in class and each of them presented instruments of their choice. Instruments ranges from piano, clarinet, violin, cello, flute, etc. Personally, piano is my favorite. But sadly, there were not much solos. The over all performance was great and I enjoy the creativity from each composer.

Atari Kosuke 中孝介

それぞれに

そよ風が告げる春の訪れ (tsugeru)
咲き乱れる花の香りに (mitareru)
遠い君を思う

春の陽に見守られて
花が咲くように
いつかは希望の陽が
照らすでしょう

それぞれにそれぞれの
決めた道を歩き
いつの日か微笑んで
また会えるその時まで

黄昏が告げる秋の訪れ (tasogare)
移り行く紅の空に (utsuri)
遠い日々を思う  

秋の陽に見守られて
実り成るように (minori)
いつかは君の夢も
叶うでしょう

あの日交わした約束
僕らが描いてた
未来はどんな色に
染まるのでしょう

Fairness

I felt discouraged after reading the comments on my logo that I've posted for competition. It seems like the judges comment differently based on participants' skill level, which I think is not fair because some of the logos are just poorly done in photoshop (grab images and put them in layers.)

I know that my fonts are ugly because my pc regin doesn't allow me to input fancy chinese fonts. On top of this, the open space is my style of art because I like space. As long as title and image is in balance, I'd like to keep the rest clean unless it's part of the requirement. In addition, if you look closely, you can see that there's patches of fade white occupying the open space... so it is not completely empty.

I know that I'm not a professinal artist; hence, I'm not as good as you (the judges) in drawing skills. However, there are 2 things that I'd like to say.... First, this is my first time drawing in photoshop with my MOUSE... Second, it is a wolf-puppy, that's why it doesn't look much like adult wolf.

Souka!

Things rang in today's sermon and I realized that my thoughts have to be re-evaluated. Often time I find myself not willing to get over pasts and allowing them to wound me over and over as I though about them and it's hard not to express hatred for someone who've taken advantages from you.

"Hate the Sin, not the sinner."

It is hard to achineve as a human being, but for what I've observed, I should do my best to achieve it.

Wants to sing 想唱歌

English

Ever since I went out with friends from Douglus College to karaoke, I'm interested in harmony songs from then on. Although I'm not a professional singer and I'd have to tense my vocal cords to accomidate high pitches, it is enjoyable to sing harmony with others. According to Eva, my friend Stevi really sounds like a popular Chinese singer call Stefany Sun. For similarity reguarding to voice mimicing, I'd give her (my friend) 80% because her style is kinda different than Stefany. I'd like to sing harmony with her again if we decide to go to karaoke; however, I'd have to prepare myself before I go.

Recently I've downloaded songs from a Chinese pop girl group call S.H.E. In general, they sounded ok as a group; however, I favour one of the singer call Ela only. I like her not only by appearance, but also her singing style since her voice is the richest among the group. I've like rich voice singers ever since I encounter (as listened to) a Japanese singer call Misia, and from then on, I've found other singers such as Nakashima Mika, and Onitsuka Chiniro.


中文

自從上次與DC的朋友們一起去唱過K後
最近一直對合聲的曲子很感興趣
雖然說我並不是什麼一流的歌手
而且時常要拉嗓子去唱女生的聲部
But, I enjoy it.

就如Eva所說的Stevi的聲音跟孫燕姿真的好像
要說相似度的話我會給80%
畢竟他還是有他個人的Style, 所以不算100%
有機會還想跟他一同去唱K一次
但在此之前我要先把合聲練好^^

--------------------------------

話說最近喜歡上了S.H.E的歌
老實說...只是喜歡Ela的聲音罷了
不知道怎說...我就是比較喜歡厚一點的聲音
好比像 Misia, 中島美嘉, 鬼束千尋等等的

Laziness

Don't know what to say... but that's what I am doing ... being lazy. Hard to focus on works, whether from school or from personal interest. Perhaps there's a way to escape life. Not for long, but momentarily.
