Updates on a mundane lifestyle
Another promise made to myself went unfulfilled. Yesterday I said I would wake up in the morning and go for a swim at Hougang Swimming Complex. Yet I overslept and woke up at noon.
Really, it has been quite some time since I last went for a swim. Or a jog. Or any exercise for that matter. Even as I type, I can feel my fats wobbling around. And my lung capacity. Something that I never found to be a problem is seriously troubling now. Even four bar phrases seem impossible. I have to do something quick!
Recently I have been clocking 2 hours of practice each day except for last Wednesday and Thursday. My lips seem more stable now, but the setting up still feels weird. My mouthpiece slips downwards as my lips get wetter. Airy sound is still present and pitching is a problem. I need more practice!
Oh, I almost forgot to mention that my earhole started bleeding yesterday. And last night. And whenever I decide to touch it or move it. Now does anyone have a remedy for that? If you do have one, please inform me soon. I have no intention of dying with a "Loss of blood from bleeding earhole" as my cause of death.
On a lighter note, exams are over! And that leaves me more time to practice. =)
I officially make practicing my favourite pastime!
Anyway, I almost forgot that there is a trumpet masterclass at Yamaha Music right about now. And I am LATE! So that is all for now. Write back soon.
p.s. Something is wrong with my phone. *Hint* Will some kind soul please get me a new phone?
