Mountains.

Wonders of the natural world

My routine has been thorougly trashed due to my inconsistency. And it is the last week of holidays before semester two starts. Two concerts right before school starts - NAFA brass band + Justbrass on Saturday and Ngee Ann Polytechnic Band on Sunday. I have a bad feeling about these concerts though. Hope it turns out fine.

Lots of weird dreams recently, and also a couple of unfounded apprehensions about this new year. I just realised I typed 2008 instead of 2009 for the date of this post.

Anyway, what about mountains? I was listening to Eine Alpensinfonie by Richard Strauss and the sheer intensity of the piece is just beautiful.

Maybe one day I will scale the alps and see for myself what lies at the summit.
