    Oh hmm. There is a size maximum for this thread? Anyway I get to hear it would be great haha. :D

    Haha. I didn't get in trouble for being up late but, I was up so late I forgot to do the dishes before I went to sleep.

    The main hand to use would be the right hand. However, when playing a melody, it can be okay to use either the right or left hand.

    Thanks!

    Oooh alrighty. :)

    While I was offline, I was trying to make sense of how the counts were supposed to go or like, how fast they go. And I think confused myself lol.

    The counting and meter of it should go just the same as you remembered it in nursery.

    Yes, there is a size maximum for sound files here that can be posted in the individual posts. I've been checking things out and asking questions about how to post sound files or link to them. It's going to take some further research and trial about how to do that.

    I'm hopeful to be successful at doing that soon, though!

    Thanks!

    I don't remember what I learned I nursery?
    I tried to like, link it with counts in dance. Like for the first few boom-boom ta-ta boom, 1, 2...

    You could upload them on Veoh maybe? And link them from there? Hope you find a way soon, too. :)

    I thought that you said that you had heard that song in nursery?

    Anyway, I've just tried to upload a sound file to a storage site that was recommended to me and it didn't work. It was of the version of your song with the simpler accompaniment that I'm sure that you can play.

    Have you studied material and/or taken notes off some of the sites to which I gave you the links?

    Thanks!

    I remember the songs, but I don't know. It's vague?

    Oh sorry. D: I think that site is for mp4/5's. There is also this place, megaupload. I've only downloaded from there, and not sure what the way uploading is. :s

    Yup I've written notes, and looked over the sites a few times when I get the chance.

    Do you think that you could tell me all of the names of the notes that are on the treble and bass clef staffs if I were to quiz you about that?

    Shiang

    I don't think I can tell you the names of all the notes yet haha. :)

    A review. Please study the following diagram. Please then tell me the names of the notes that I will list on an image of the keyboard that your sister has.

    Thanks!

    Now, please tell me all of the names of the notes, left to right, that I've circled on the keyboard, please. I put a number "1" on middle "C".

    You're absolutely correct, Shiang! And, you've just won the prize of $1,000,000 dollars! It will be sent to you in small increments over the next 1,000 years!

    See, you are learning something here!

    Lol woot! At first I thought you meant asking me about the notes and their names though, instead of the letters and the keys. :o
    I'll die 10 times over and I'll finally get my money lol.

    Now, I thnk that you're pretty well oriented as far as where the notes are on your sisters keyboard.

    Would you agree!

    Thanks!

    Haha I guess so.

    I'ma head to bed now since it's pretty late. Goodnight. :)

    Okay, goodnight and sweet dreams to you! We'll continue some other time then.

    Hopefully, the next time we get together, I'll have a way that you can actually hear what I've written with the music!

    Thanks!

    Good evening? I have come back. :)

    And, a good evening to you too, Shiang! Or, should I say morning, now? ;)

    Something really cool just happened! :p I finally figured out how to store sound files on a site so that you can actually hear the music the way that I hear and wrote it!

    Here is a link to a sound file of the less complicated version of your song that I'm sure that you could play! :D

    I hope that you like it!! :)

    Haha yeah, good morning! :)

    Ohh that is cool! I just listened to it and it sounds very nice. :D

    Have you printed out the music to that version?
