The cost?

My piano just got tuned today.
The cost?
RM 230.00

Actually, if normal tuning, the cost is only RM 80.00.
But, the piano had not been tune for almost 15 year, so no wonder it cost much more than that.

And FIY, the piano is 30 years old (plus plus)... Hehee... Kinda old aiye!

Piano tuning...

Today, my hubby told me that Mr. Richard (a tuning guy who we got his number from the Piano Shop) called him mentioning that he wants to come by for the tuning.

I'm so excited to be sure. Hah! I can't wait to hear the sound of the piano playing inside my house!
Call me weird but I do loves piano to that extend. It's been ages since I literally BEGGED my dad to buy me a piano (and I managed to get my dad to buy me a keyboard instead - I got 4A's for UPSR and he promised me a Keyboard!

I don't know how much it would cost me for the tuning or service (if needed). So I put aside 1K aside for that. I hope it won't cost much. The tuning might take quite some times since the last tuning was on 1996!
I don't know much about piano but from what I've read from the net, each piano need to be tune twice a year. So, imagine if the piano haven't been tune for 15 years!

However, for you info the piano still in good condition. It just that he keys from the bass side was kinda off. There are few keys need to be fix (I think) because I have to 'knock' it hard to make THE sound.

I can't wait for the school holiday! 

Now, I just have to wait what Mr. Richard will say about my Knight Piano...
It's a Knight Piano! I can't believe I have my own Knight Piano
(the name itself is so 'fairytale' like.. hehehehe....)

One thing for sure.
I still don't  know how OLD is my piano.
Hope I can get the answer tomorrow!

Dream came true...

Guess what?!

I finally bought myself a piano!

It's not a brand new and my hubby said it might be very old
(maybe 10-15 years old), but I got it with a reasonable price......

RM 1500 only!

It's an Upright Piano
"Knight - British Pattern"
from 'Singapore Keller Piano Company'


My niece Elysa - playing the piano...
It still need to be tune.
The body part is still in good condition..
I'm very pleased.


Can't wait to get back home
(since I lives at Sri Aman and the piano is currently at Kuching)
huhuhu...

Thanks to Mr. Goh (mudah.com.my)

One of my favorite author.
Kinda hard to search for her books nowadays.
So I just got the electronic copy for reading.
Will buy this if I came across with it anyway!

Designer Cotton fabrics

I've been searching for designer cotton fabrics
for quite a while now.
I stumbled with this website along the way.....

Multi Stripe, Isabella by Lilla Tueler for Riley

Double Border Daisy in Lime by Patty Young


If your interested to make your own baby cloths,
I would recommended this website to you
since it's Malaysia's base.

There are quite a lot of designer cloth available,
but I'm still searching for more sources.

I just bought 2 pieces (RM21 per 1/2 yard each) from the website.
Making Adela's new dress is my objective for this year.
Maybe if I'm good enough,
then I might start my own baby cloth business!
(that may take a few years laaaa....)
