Music lernen-reise..
It has been 3 months since he started attending violin lessons. He still can't read music.. not that I care.. he can play some simple songs and many times, he wanted to make some noise music himself. Good enough.
Completely reliant on my mouth and his ears, he can play most of Rondosaurus now.
Learning violin is seriously not easy. You'll have to watch your posture while you STAND, correct way of holding the bow with your right hand making sure the pinkie finger is touching the end of the bow (to ensure the bow is straight), pressing the right place at the string using your fingers on your left hand, making sure there's no double string played, making sure you do not pull the bow when you're changing fingerings.. the list goes on.
All this, while remembering the music and playing at the right tempo.
ALL TOGETHER AT THE SAME TIME!
It was really difficult for him in the beginning. I think he's progressing well.
He would hum the song he learn when he's doing nothing.
Lately, he wrote them down too (albeit not really music notes)!

Not just about a pencil case..
Last week, IZ tried very hard to stuff the big box of stationery into his school bag. I told him it was not possible. He didn't say why. I didn't ask why.
The next day, he made a fuss in the school. He refused to step into the class as he did not have a pencil case.
He wanted to bring pencil case to school coz 2 of his friends bring their own.
That night, I learnt a lesson. It was not just about a pencil case..
There's reason behind every little thing he does.
