too hot to do anything

I am supposed to be working on my asignment now but due to the extremely hot weather (excuses...), I have not even on my laptop to start doing it!!! Anyway, got some updates from friends who I haven't been contacting for a while :) Kavi is looking good and things seem to be working out for her (despite some 'minor' issues)

Finally got hold of Kimmy last night and apparently, she did not received any calls or texts that Chian and I sent on her birthday. Nevermind, should check with her on her add again to make sure that the things that we are going to send will arrive =p

19 days to my practical exam and I am super nervous already as I know that I did not prepare as well as I wanted to. I got 19 days to go and if I plan well and follow it, I think I will hit my own expectation though. Stupid weather, it was still cool a few days back and just in one day, it changes to be so damn hot!!!!!!! arghhhhhh........ can't wait for this summer @_@

It sucks to be sick

Everything has to come to a standstill when I am sick. Got no energy to move around, got no motivation to do anything, especially the assignments, things have to be delayed, and due to the delay, some of the things went wrong...new arrangements have to be made to replace the old ones that are not working out anymore.

Anyway, I am getting better from all the rests and naps I had. Hope that I got better much sooner so that I can continue with my work!!!

Miss home a little recently, may be due to the fact that I am sick, and also I have been working hard to earn some money....Home is always the best :)

Final Semester

It has been quite a while since I last updated my blog. I guess partly due to laziness and partly due to my overly busy life here. I found two jobs within the same week, both waitressing. One at the restaurant Chian Chian was working as kitchen hand, and the other one is a dim sum restaurant. My weekends are now fully occupied and I have to really arrange my time so well that I don't sacrifice my grades for money and works. It is quite tiring though, trying to keep everything running on time. Whenever things are not in place, the stress piled up really really quick.

Anyway, life has to go on and no matter how stress I am, the time will just passed by and never look back at me. So I shall be motivated and think positively that I can definitely finish my things on time!!!!

Growing up

I used to love growing up as I can do things that I dreamt of doing, I can decide my shopping items, I have control over my life. I kinda regret wanting it to come so soon now. It has come to a point where you have to make your life decisions and deep inside, you understand that no matter what decisions you made, there are pros and cons as well as responsibilities and sacrifications. I remembered somebody said to me: Great power comes with great responsibilities. I do not have great power to the world, but I believe I have great power to my life. And of course, the power has its burden, a big one, responsibilities.

Sometimes, I will have to crack my tiny brain to analyze a decision making process thoroughly to make sure that I made the best possible decision at the time. But after a year or two, somehow, I started to doubt my decisions and the pathways I have chosen. And three or four years later, I will come to a realization that I actually picked the 'right' route and am happy with the decision made years ago.

Like now, I have to decide what I want to do after I finish my Bachelor degree; whether to continue stay here or to move after the current contract ends; if I've decided to move, where should I move to and how (since my possessions here are...pretty much); whether to spend that extra $500 bucks to get a camcorder since my camera can do the job, not excellent though. Sometimes you got very frustrated with friends around but never know how to confront or solve the problem unhurtful and calmly. If I am a kid, I just need to say: I don't want to friend you already...XXX asked me not to friend you or XXX will not friend me.

Life is difficult enough, why create more problems? I understand this, but sometimes it is just so difficult to control everything around you. In fact, there are more uncontrol-able events then control-able events around you. Life is difficult, but I am determined to live my own life and search for my destiny, which is for me to discover.........

Festival of Accompanists 2009

I performed as an accompanist at the Festival of Accompanists 2009 on July 15. This is really, my first official public appearance as a semi-professional musician. I am pretty satisfied with my performance actually, despite that there are a number of mistakes made. This initial success boosted my interest in the field of accompanying and I guess I have to thanks Chien-Ho (the amazing soprano) for giving the chance to perform with her. She is a Master student with a very beautiful voice. I am hoping that I could sing like her one day~~~~~~~




Anyway, please enjoy the video :)
