#56 weapons of mass destruction

Say something nice: Hey, this is an AIDS event so I'd refrain from any cattiness. Um, SiKer's wig can probably win Miss Universe, bring world peace and prove Martians exist with its own bare er, tendrils?

Vivi looks wonderful, and Simone looks like a rock diva. 

#55 presenting: IV seribu berlian

Right now I'm in the middle of writing the 5th song in the cycle. Right in the middle: just finished the piano score (which is frickin' hardest thing I've ever put down in ink for a piano, maybe not technically but certainly stamina-wise) and about to arrange it for an orchestra. Working title: Datanglah wahai hati yang duka. It's inspired by the last verse from Ada Negri's poem Nebbie.

E mi ripete: Vieni,
è buia la vallata.
O triste, o disamata: vieni!


And (the voice) calls to me: "Come,
come to this dark valley.
Come, oh sad love-less one!"

... It'll be my first time writing for an English horn! And I'm thinking of a horn trill! Freaking awesome.

OTOH I'll be having a major exam this Friday, so it's gonna put a damper on things. Have to catch up on readings and whatnot. Lalalala~!
