The Two Things That I learned from My First Piano Lesson

Last week, I had my first piano lesson. I truly enjoyed the two hours. Here are some interesting stuff that I learned:

1. Piano is alive - well, my teacher didn't really say that but I felt that way after having conversations with her. She said that I shouldn't have someone tune my piano yet because it has to get used to the new environment (my home). She told me to wait about 6 month. I'm sure my piano was crying when my dog peed on her leg. I'm sorry.

2. I have to cut my nails really short - apparently my nails were too long for a piano player. My teacher told me to curve my fingers like I'm holding a ball. This was almost impossible to do with my long nails. I now have really short nails.

Can You Play Super Mario?

I grow up with this game and I really enjoyed watching this video.

Show Time: Marry Ann

This song is page 23 of Alfred's Adult Piano Course Lesson Book Level 1. I had hard time with this song because I had to use my left hand most of the time.
