real unreal, masks and trust

people sometimes say that the way things happen in the movies is unreal, but actually it's the way things happen to you in life that's unreal. The movies make emotions look so strong and real, whereas when things really do happen to you, it's like watching television -- you don't feel anything (andy warhol)

"it is so damn difficult for me to understand people lately. some of them truly wearing mask covering their face, hiding reality inside, showing unreality outside, " a friend of mine said.


i am laying on my bed right now, looking out through my window, seeing the dark sky outside... million of stars twinkling giving clues that they are exist. 


thinking of you, people that i love..... you never wearing masks. 
sometimes won't be easy to understand you guys...., but there will always trust


(i could not continue anymore..... my memory full of gust ... longing badly of you..., people that i love...., my mind wandering to a composition from the phantom of the opera ..., masks......, trusts......., real ......, unreal....)

last voluntary music class - i'll wait for you

my friend simon's (twitter: @simonartphoto,  http://soonyfsimonpictureday.blogspot.com) comment on my post http://www.muziekforeveryone.com/2009/07/summer-samba-and-holy-spirit-minor.html  reminded me of the last day i gave my voluntary music class there (seminary).
for a reason, i could not continue it. i miss my students there. some of them very enthusiastic some not really.


it was so sad that the last lesson incidentally i gave, was an explanation of songs composed on minor scale (both harmonic and melodic). i remembered that day (end of may 2012) i felt so gloomy inside after the class was over. the same feeling i got when i decided to pull myself out of the music school.
the song that i used as a sample in explaining the minor scale was 'i'll wait for you' performed by acoustic cafe.





'i'll wait for you' is the music theme of a french musical movie back in the year 1964 by michael legrand titled: le parapluie de cherbourg (the umbrella of cherbourg). the leading lady was catherine deneuve.
that song was sung by great name such as frank sinatra, astrud gilberto, connie francis, etc.


here is the lyric of the song:


If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're back beside me, till I'm holding you
Till I hear you sigh here in my arms

Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go
Every day remember how I love you so
In your heart believe what in my heart I know
That forevermore I'll wait for you

The clock will tick away the hours one by one
Then the time will come when all the waiting's done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms

If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're here beside me, till I'm touching you
And forevermore sharing your love


until now, i am still often in tears when listening to this song. it is so sentimental, and there is a little regret of choosing that song that day.


as i my reply to simon's comment i wrote on my older post http://www.muziekforeveryone.com/2009/07/summer-samba-and-holy-spirit-minor.html , please find herewith the new seminary after their renovation project (i give the link of the last photograph taken): https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.394603600581677.82699.203640906344615&type=3
