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)

So Close by Jon McLaughlin

You’re in my arms
And all the world is calm
The music playing on for only two
So close together
And when I’m with you
So close to feeling alive

A life goes by
Romantic dreams will stop
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting here with you
And now forever I know
All that I wanted to hold you
So close

So close to reaching that famous happy end
Almost believing this was not pretend
And now you’re beside me and look how far we’ve come
So far we are so close

How could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?
We’re so close
To reaching that famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let’s go on dreaming for we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far

Lyrics | Jon McLaughlin - So Close lyrics

"So Close" is one of my favourite song. Taken from the movie, 'Enchanted'

It reminds me of the old days.

It's funny because the more I think about it,

the more similar it was with

my own fairytale story (long long ago)

I was desperately, head over heels

falling in love with

Prince Charming..

-hansome-

-super rich-

-romantice wooing-

-big car and romantic dinner-

(all that you can only dream of)

and all I ever believed in love

and lived happily ever after

And then I found Mr. Reality

Fate and destiny,

always have their own surprises..

I do get the chance of living happily

with my own Mr. Reality

.

Zaini bin Sulaiman

And I never regret it....

I feel bless....

Because I know somehow,

this Mr. Reality is actually

My Knight in Shining Armor.......

~Good Luck to all Year 6 Pupils!~

To all Year 6 pupils in Malaysia,

Good Luck and to your best for
