So what have I been doing...?

I'm not in New York now, some of my friends would know it.

I'm in South Park, and I'm not kidding. I AM in South Park, in Morgantown, West Virginia. OK, if you don't believe me, I will take a picture tomorrow and show you.

I came here to play with my buddy Yew Choong, who has a severe hearing problem. When he's wearing a hearing aid, he still has to look at your lips so that he could figure out what you're talking about. Which means, he could hear your voice, but couldn't hear your diction.

And yet, this chap is finishing up his DMA and piano performance here. He won my utmost respect. So I agreed to play for him right after he asked me.

We chose one of the hardest of all piano literature --- Cesar Franck's Sonata for Violin and Piano.

We've been practising many times now. And in the same time, non-stop makan (eating) with our fellow Malaysians who study here --- this place is full of Malaysians (and also Indonesians and Thais...and...not to mention, Koreans [di mana-mana pun ada]).

Morgantown is a peaceful little town where you don't really have much to do. The "downtown" here is small it's so cute. A very sleepy place --- just the place for a New York person like me to calm down and recharge my energy.

Oh, nearly forgot to mention! Yew Choong and I played badminton yesterday!

That was a short game, but we had great fun.

It's pretty easy to satisfy a Malaysian huh? Food + badminton. Haha...
