Another semester gone.

Both semester exams and concerts are finally over........wooohhooooooo....:-) However I still have a lot of "datelines" to meet....:-(.

I'm going to watch a few of my friend's graduation recital next week. Lisa...I'll be there.

Next Thursday, I'm going out with Eli, Jess, Nic and the gang to go......SHOPPING....wooooo...at 1U in Damansara. Hopefully we're going to The Curve and Ikano as well since those malls are so near to each other. I have not visit nor shop in shopping complexes in ages.

I love going out with friends but sadly, not really much time.....too much to focus on. I guess I'm too ambitious :-P.

Going back to my beloved hometown soon. Kuching. Yeah!!!!!

I have got to enjoy next week as it's my only "vacation" week after that back in my hometown, I have to start practicing. Torchering process...well i guess you guys know it too.

Cousin's wedding is coming soon too. I'm feeling so happy for her I don't know why. Haha......



More updates again soon..........

Ipod Nano!

I want to own an Ipod Nano. The 4th generation Ipod or the latest version?

The latest version is tempting. It records videos too either than listening to music and etc.

OR

8 GB or 16 GB?

I shall be going to Low Yat to research and analyze on the price of the Ipods.

then

I shall ask my parents about it.

It's Sunday....HELLO!!!

When I woke up this morning, I was troubled by so many things on my mind. I would say that I was rather blur too. Practicing...........hunting for practice rooms...........Shao Ying..........Jury............exams......money........lessons.......and a "few" other goals to meet.

I forced myself to get up and did my daily routines.

On the way walking out of the condo, I was thinking about my plans for the day when some kids who were swimming caught my attention.

It was not the swim that I was interested in but rather; How come they are kids around? Aren't they suppose to be in school?

Giving a 'who- cares' attitude, I just walked out of the condo.

Met Emmy, Kun Ming and Sze Ern at the coffee shop. So I went to sort of greet them.

Then....

WEIRD! REALLY WEIRD!!!

Shops that are supposed to be opened at that time were not open. Why?

Again, I come to a conclusion that well maybe because Deepavali falls on a Saturday so they might want to replace the holiday today.

I continued walking into campus, looking around. No cars? Finally, reached the entrance of block A. How come the automatic door is not functioning?

The campus guard came over and ask where I was heading to.........Block C definitely to practice. He said that Block C is not open for practice today.

Means no choir concert as well today? Weird.......

So I walked back home still feeling uneasy. Met with Kun Ming and the gang again.

"How come block C is not open today? Weird." I said

"Not today, but the library is open today though." replied Kun Ming.

"The choir concert is today right? If block C is not open, what about the concert tonight?" I asked.

"The concert is tomorrow. Not today." said Ming.

I realised......................TODAY IS SUNDAY......WTH!!!!!

I can't stop laughing at myself..............

Beautifully Imperfect.

A beautiful video with full of meanings.

AAARRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!

I'm am sad and angry to the point that I feel like crying. Feel like reaping my heart out.

I don't even know where to start from for goodness sake. What the fuck am I going to do?

A commoner whose family is almost to the edge of going bankrupt but still having such high hopes and dreams. Ha ha, I can hear the whole world laughing at me.

Sometimes, I do doubt if I was talented enough or if the choices I made was right.

My techniques are muddled it's like I just got out of the abysmal bin. I just can't get the damn phrase sounding right in it's colour, texture..........aaaarrrgggghhhh......basically everything.

Everything sucks.

Oh.....crap crap crap.........

I'm just wasting my time here. Got to let it out of me. Phew...........

雨ニモマケズ (Be not defeated by the rain)

Be not defeated by the rain, Nor let the wind prove your better.
Succumb not to the snows of winter. Nor be bested by the heat of summer.

Be strong in body. Unfettered by desire. Not enticed to anger. Cultivate a quiet joy.
Count yourself last in everything. Put others before you.
Watch well and listen closely. Hold the learned lessons dear.

A thatch-roof house, in a meadow, nestled in a pine grove's shade.

A handful of rice, some miso, and a few vegetables to suffice for the day.

If, to the East, a child lies sick: Go forth and nurse him to health.
If, to the West, an old lady stands exhausted: Go forth, and relieve her of burden.
If, to the South, a man lies dying: Go forth with words of courage to dispel his fear.
If, to the North, an argument or fight ensues:
Go forth and beg them stop such a waste of effort and of spirit.

In times of drought, shed tears of sympathy.
In summers cold, walk in concern and empathy.

Stand aloof of the unknowing masses:
Better dismissed as useless than flattered as a "Great Man".

This is my goal, the person I strive to become.

It was Kenji Miyazawa's goal and now it has become mine.
