考琴準備(更新至2018年6月初)

現在3首考曲的進度如下:(已經自行完成最少1次錄音)
A-3: 速度可以加快,但整體上的感覺是做到出來的。自行的首次錄音有「臨尾香」。
B-2:除了1個錯音,其他部分整體上蠻動聽的。
C-3:也是慢了一點,但整體來說是做到應有的效果。
Scale:想不到在2/6/2018就可以彈得非常流暢!(鬆一口氣)
Sight-reading:拍子清楚,甚少有錯音,但是經常彈得非常慢。
Aural: 預計在7月頭開始練。
我26/7就要離港1個月,應該在離港前可以收到准考證,及達到自己的目標。
現在差不多放下了心頭大石,因為我預計的分數如下:
A-3: 24/30
B-2: 26/30
C-3: 24/30
Scale: 19/21
Sight-reading: 16/21
Aural:因為還沒有開始練,就當成是個人以往的平均-14/18
總分:123/150,這就是我的水準所在。如果再好一點就可以上到130。

2017-18的最後時刻(1)

隨著「夏令時間」的開始,2017-18眨眼間就要結束了。
「夏令時間」其實真不太像樣,因為只早放45分鐘。
但那時的壓力越來越大,最後的功課完成後,就測驗、測驗、默書、測驗、......
基本上每天也晚了睡覺!
但我仍然經過這段時期,沒有欠交,測驗的成績也可以,實際如下:
英國文學:27/32(很久沒有A了!)
中國歷史第2次:33.5/50(一次超難的測驗)
中文閱讀:28/50(算吧,我中文最差,IGCSE中文是蠻簡單的)
普通話:44/65(對不起老師,我沒有溫習😱😱)
數學就不說了,又是差一點滿分!
中文默書:94分!!!!第一次在有一詞多意的默書得到90+!

但現在先不說太多了,因為在22個小時後,610就要開始考試了。
「考試週快將光臨 盼你拋出勇敢 一起溫書似特訓」
現在要溫習了!我一定要4.0+和$26000獎學金!

2017-18班際合唱比賽

最後一年參加班際合唱比賽了(中三之後沒有這樣的比賽了),取得第3名(我們只用了2星期準備,因為中途轉了歌,是前2年的歌曲之合成版)
雖然比前兩年的第2名退步了,但也算有一個獎帶走,結束三年全班一同合唱的時光
亦大大的恭喜今年取得第1名的中三戊班,還有從上年HEA著上台進步到今年第2名的中三甲班!🎉🎉🎉🎉
你們真的太棒太厲害了!👏👏👍👍🏆🏆我以你們為榮!🏆我覺得三戊是可以和DBS,DGS,St. Paul ,協恩,建中,北一女等名校的合唱團匹敵的!

開始準備考琴@4.2018

610兄於3月份已經報名了考ABRSM第6級琴試,過了第二學期考試就開始練習了(我選曲是A3 B2 C3)
暫時每星期練3-4次,每次60-90分鐘,一直持續到6月頭(5月最後一個星期打算練多2小時)
之後不練3星期(要溫習第三學期考試)至6月27日回復練習
從那時到26/7(我在27/7出發到澳洲)就每天練1-2次,每次60-90分鐘,務求在出發到澳洲前練好3首考曲及Scale
30/8回港後,回復至26/7之前的練習次數和時數直到考試日期,以把進度追回
至21/4的最新進度:
A3:中間偶有錯音,拍子曾經掉了,但也開始恢復穩定(今天把這首歌一直練了45分鐘)
B2:和A3大致一樣問題,但拍子沒有掉
C3:我暫時最熟練的歌。沒有錯音,開始加入感情,並在16/4完成第一次錄音。有關錄音可以在我的影片「一決雌雄003: 89B vs MTR 鑽石山站往沙角商場(8倍速)」中找到。

按照現在的進度繼續往前,我可不可以一次就過關嗎?(很擔心,我一定要一次過關,因為我2019要考IGCSE)

又出成績了

於23/3-24/3及26/3-27/3完成學校的「走進窮世界」體驗活動和復活節假期後不久,第二學期的成績出來了!
我重返全班三甲,這次以4.22/5.00排在🥉,我的朋友也和我一樣!
這次的化學只有B級成績(74.xx),通識也只有D(62.8,算吧,明年它不是主修了,因為我將考的是GCE而不是DSE),中文閱讀雖然不及格(49),但中文總分改變不大,仍是C級(63.6)
但我也有驚喜:
英國文學:79.04(B),還差一點就A了!
ICT竟然有70.1(B),我預計只有D,因為有一次測驗不及格!
音樂竟然有A,更是中學裡的第一次!
我在整體上認為第二學期的考卷挺難的,希望第三學期可以再有4.0(最好4.5),這樣我又有學校的$26000獎學金了!

改編歌詞 (EP.5)

眨眼間,17-18第二學期快要完結了,在這幾篇中我再跟大家分享其他在這學期的作品吧!
1. Let an earthquake damage go down (原曲:Blowing in the wind)
V1. We can give time for evacuation through monitoring and warning systems,
We plan land use carefully by avoiding facilities with potential dangers and set up evacuation routes,
We can make buildings in earthquake proof design to prevent the collapse of them,
副歌:To do this, my friend, is going to reduce the damage caused by earthquakes.
V2. We can increase people's awareness by education and earthquake drills,
Emergency aids and rescue teams provide help to those affected,
We can make use of the money from insurance to rebuild our homes,
(重唱副歌)
2. So Little Water (原曲:聽見下雨的聲音)
Water footprint relates to economic development, As living standards go up it's larger
And the world is facing the threat of inadequate freshwater supply,
By an increasing demand of freshwater, as population increases, better living and wasting water.
When sewage, industrial water enter freshwater, they pollute the clean freshwater,
So its supply will decrease quickly,
3% of water is freshwater, two thirds are in glaciers and ice caps
A third is found in rivers, lakes, and also groundwater
They come from a water cycle, evaporation then transpiration,
Then it's condensed and falls as rain or snow, flows down slopes and becomes groundwater.
3. The Chinese Water Resources 〈原曲:知足〉
Chang Jiang, Huang He and Zhu Jiang are the most important rivers in China,
The area drained by a river and its tributaries are river basins.
Rivers flow from the west to the east, related to the relief of China,
As land level goes down from west to east and water flows from high to low areas.
With a monsoon climate, the amount of precipitation in a given place varies with the seasons
So distribution of water resources in summer are more than winter,
As the wet monsoon travels inland, it loses a lot of moisture,
So coastal areas are wetter and more rainy than inland areas.
〈間奏〉
There's humid land mainly in southern part of China, and there are semi arid and arid lands
Found in the north and northwest of China, so the amount decreases to northwest,
There's humid land mainly in southern part of China, and there are semi arid and arid lands
Found in the north and northwest of China, so the amount decreases from the southeast to the northwest
So the amount of precipitation affects the water resources that people have,
This is how precipitation affects all the supply of freshwater in China.

真很開心...

我被學校安排在23/7-24/8到澳洲做1個月交流生!
希望那時候的經歷可以成為一生中的美好回憶,因為這機會得來不易!

改編歌詞 (EP. 4)

以下是我在2018年1月寫成的部分作品,它們也幫了我取得A級成績!
1. The Climate of South China (原曲:A Whole New World )
V1. In spring it is warm and wet,  also foggy with moderate rainfall,
In summer it's hot and wet and the winds always go south,
In autumn it's  mild and dry, fine and sunny with clear skies,
In winter it is cool and dry and the winds all blow to the north,
副歌:It's South China, it's the region which we live in,
Its seasons are distinct, and it has monsoons which are winds that change directions seasonally.
V2. Winter north east/west monsoons occur when land loses heat quicker,
Air moves downward and pressure is high and here are cool, dry offshore winds,
In summer, land heats up quicker, air floats over the surface,
Resulting in low air pressure and wet offshore winds from the south
(重唱副歌 x2)
2. Causes and effects of typhoons (原曲:粉刷匠)
V1. Typhoons form over water in warm tropical oceans, there are two favourable conditions for it to form. It has warm water hotter than 26.5 degrees, and it has abundant supply of moist air.
V2. Air is kept warm and then continues to rise, forming a lot of towering clouds.
Rising air results in a low pressure centre, more air will move into the low pressure centre.
V3. Intense low air pressure sucks in more moist air, as it spirals upwards as it rises.
It will cause the winds to become very strong, and then a typhoon is finally formed!
V4. When a typhoon hits a place it disrupts economy, it also affects transport and our daily lives.
It will cause loss of life and property, and trigger other hazards like flooding and landslides.
V5. To reduce the loss we need good monitoring and warning systems, build typhoon proof buildings and plan land use better. Educate people to take precautionary actions, rescue teams and shelters can help save lives.
3. Why does an earthquake happen? (原曲:The Minister's Cat)
V1. The earth is made up of three layers-the crust, the mantle and the core,
The crust is made up of rock and soil forming continents and ocean floors.
V2. The mantle has a high pressure, made up of molten rock called magma,
The core is made up of heavy metals like iron and nickel.
V3. The earth surface is divided in pieces, these pieces are called plates,
They lie and float on the upper mantle, where rocks are soft to flow slowly.
V4. Plates move slowly along plate boundaries, transform boundary as they move past,
Divergent boundary as they move apart and convergent as they move towards.
V5. As plates move because of convection current of magma in the mantle,
They will either be compressed or stretched and pressure is built up in them.
V6. When the pressure is too great, the rock can't withstand and break,
Energy is then released, the earth will shake, there's an earthquake!

再次掉到谷底

ICT測驗:12/35,因為只溫習1天
下一次,溫習7天-14天,目標分數:100%
因為這樣,我真的不說太多了,明天有地理測驗,610兄要溫習了
我這次也出動了神器,就是2首改編歌詞了!其中一首是改編自五月天的《知足》,稍後再分享吧!

為1900人,拼搏3.5小時

3/2/2018是我校的2018-2019 S1 admission interview ,我要回校幫忙。我搭上了11:30班次的92線「紅巴」,在12:00前就回校了。
那時上午的2批人已經完成面試,在13:30就換下午第一批人,後面還有15:00及16:30兩組
於13:00,工作簡介完成後,正式開工了!
我那邊的所有人先為13:30面試的384人檢查文件(我妹妹也在內),發現不少人忘了要影印成績表及作文2篇,看來他們太緊張了......
13:30,我就帶著141及142組的學生到面試場地,並安頓他們。在放下他們之前,我也為他們打氣。
14:15,在15:00面試的人也陸陸續續來到了。我又開始為他們檢查文件,中途發現其中一個男生手上拿著2017年5級樂理的獎狀,我發現真巧呢!(我也是在2017年考的)
14:30,在13:30面試的人已經開始下來了,門口一片混亂,我就站到挺前的位置,繼續檢查學生的文件。
15:00,我帶著157,158,189及190組的學生到面試場地。
15:45,在最後一輪面試-16:30的人也開始來到學校,我們最後一次佈署,再次為學生檢查文件。我看到其中一個女生,她選了96分中文作文及95分英文作文,我就讚她「選得好」
16:25,由於238組有一個女生有身體殘障,我先帶她搭乘升降機到面試場地,再於16:30帶其他237及238組的學生到面試場地,我完成工作了!

開始重回軌道...

自從16/1的記名後,我就不忍欠帶書/HW了,我在27/1已經做完3/2之前交的HW!
現在派回的test也滿意分數,特別是中文聆聽(50.5/60,我收到分數後真是開心到尖叫!)
雖然兩科x1的ict和pe也有機會跌grade,但中文(x3)及另2科x1有機會升,所以我在17-18第二學期的分數一定會上升!
不說太多了,明天有eng Lit 的測驗,610兄要溫習了,再過幾天會上載一些幫到我的改編歌詞!

2018年1月17日 星期三

好傷心....

1月份經過open day 後欠交了3份 HW,記名了
所以從明天至2018年6月27日出文前也會提及所有明天交的功課也有✅
這樣我就會像2015-16第三學期0欠交了!😃
