From Pri 3 or 4 onwards, I had Organ lessons. Mom bought a
Yamaha Electone Organ from her boss for a really good price 2nd
hand so she decided to send me to Yamaha Music School. I
really loved the lessons, loved to 'play by ear' and loved the
improvisation module. I used to watch Hong Kong TV series
with my parents, and then play the theme songs on the organ.
Everything I
heard that I liked, I would play it on the organ.
I had to stop lessons cause when I reached the 2nd last grade, I
needed to purchase a better organ because mine was the basic model
and I couldn't pass my music exams on it. However, mom
couldn't afford an organ so there went my lessons. 
In Junior College, I joined the Chinese Orchestra, because the
Symphonic Orchestra wants people who already know how to play a
musical instrument. I learnt how to play the di zi (Chinese
flute) and I actually did pretty well and moved on to play the xiao
di (small Chinese flute) which was more challenging to play.
I was the one who was picked to play the Zhao3 An1 Lao3 Shi1's
flute intro but sadly, I caught bronchitis two months before the
performance and that day, on stage, I couldn't perform and almost
cried because EVERYONE who knew that tune would know that I screwed
up royally. I
stopped playing since...
Used to stay back after school on Wednesdays, which are
half-days in JC, sit on the large window sills in the old ACJC
building, and play my flute. I mostly chose the sadder theme
songs from the really old old Hong Kong TV series, like Jing1 Hua2
Chun1 Mong4, the Condor Heroes, Tian1 Long2 Ba1 Bu4, etc.
A bit stylo
that time... was much slimmer, had hair in french plaits and a
satin ribbon, so perched up there on the window sill, the breeze
carrying my sad tunes out to the podium below, the other students
who stayed back late used to look up at me as they walked
past. Fwa... like so melancholic! 
Very like that
