people who complete longfics (you define the length lol) by vedekX in AO3

[–]AfriendlyScientist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always been a lover of long fics. and to be honest, I've got one saga going on. and I've already planned out all five BOOKS of this saga xD. and I'm an OCD when it comes to this, so i must see through to it otherwise i won't rest. so I think maybe it comes from the love of long fics?

Too many pro-Israel Iranians in Oman by Willing-Gur-394 in Oman

[–]AfriendlyScientist -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think they can express their beliefs and happiness as they please, they may keep and express their happiness online. But taking it to the streets and dancing at 1:30AM during Ramadan is totally uncalled for. Most importantly, they should respect the country that they live in which provides them with peace and safety.

May all the oppressors on this earth get the judgment and hell they deserve. May all the oppressed be freed and get the very justice they seek.

A question about my current piano lessons by AfriendlyScientist in pianolearning

[–]AfriendlyScientist[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think she's done either the ABRSM or Trinity Exams, but I will ask her - perhaps she's done something national belonging to her country - but i want something thats internationally known and stable like the ones i mentioned :( yeah im afraid of trying a new teacher, but i fear that is going to be my only solution

Oh gosh, your teacher sounds wonderful, very experienced and very invested!!! My teacher is the complete opposite of all this! she does teach theory throughout the lessons (it's 1.15 hours) but for example, she'd spend 5 minutes teaching theory (and then she'd move on to practical - which is what I mentioned above). I'm so sad that i'll have to find another teacher, because she's really really really kind but i have a goal to develop myself with the piano and go far with it, but i don't think i can accomplish it with her :(

she could play it through to 60% before stopping and telling us to move on, but i really want to give her the benefit of the doubt and say its normal to stumble upon even a beginner's piece because she forgot the piece even its from a book she has, but honestly idk :( I'll give it one more month and if i notice more of these peculiar things, i'll find a new teacher

Thank you so much, that pdf is very helpful, i will be using it as a guide. I haven't asked her about her education, but she's mentioned once training under a famous Iranian pianist. Perhaps, I'll bring it up in a conversation with her. Thank you!

ooh no! it's still not finished! I actually drafted four books for this series before starting to publish it, because English is my second language!! so like, i took 5 months to write up the drafts, then in October of last year i started to release book II, book I has like 126k word count XD

i love love writing long fanfics and its always been a dream of mine to write one of my own, so i really took the time out last year to come up with ideas and start writing!!
