Its surprising what people can do to others. I kind of stumbled upon my old blog (previous one) and read the last few posts that were up there. Somehow it kinds of snaps me back to reality.People say that history teaches us about why the present is the way it is, and foretells the future. Doesn't that mean that we are all trapped in an endless vicious cycle? Probably. Even with the technological

Donnerstag17.12.2009Half my holidays are over. And whilst I was climbing mountains and eating uber oily food in china, my exam results were patiently awaiting my return.One thing for sure, I did better than previous semester. But still it is disappointing to see Ds and Cs. Especially for my PS, which I got a C. (In relation to the previous D, this is an improvement)Aural and Sight Singing was a

4th December 2009FreitagmorgenOh gosh. My sleeping hours are weird. Who sleeps at 4am and wakes up at 4pm? *raises hand*Anyway, I'll be flying off to China on saturday night, will be back in 10 days time and arriving in singapore on the 15th. Not sure what will happen there, but I'm guessing a LOT of walking, and staring at mountains and rivers. *scratches head*Time to start saving money! Because

13th October 2009TuesdayAfter staring at a blank screen for some time, I feel I ought to start somewhere.Following up from my previous post, I collected my pay yesterday. And the supposed steamboat dinner did not happen. What happened, was an improvised dinner for three - Sherrill, Jess and me, at Xin Wang HK Cafe. Not as exciting as envisioned. Weiwen joined as a while later, after his dance

30th September 2009WednesdayF1 is over. It was a busy weekend, with long hours of labour and little time to rest. Still, the company that I found on the roofs of the sky suites were invaluable.The sun bearing down harshly during setup; the hours of waiting before the first guests start arriving; the roar of the engines as the drivers control their machines from their cockpits.All these would have

9th September 2009MittwochThis too, shall pass.Here is a story from Krissy's valedictory speech at TP's graduation ceremony 2009.It was said that, in old Jerusalem, there was a king who had in his possession the most magnificent collection of precious jewels. Yet, he was unsatisfied, for he was told of the existence of a magical ring.A ring with such power that it could take a happy man’s joy

3rd September 2009DonnerstagThere were three men standing in front of a river.The first man swam across, and shouted back to the two men on the other bank. 'Come my friends, the grass here is greener than any blade of grass over on your side!'Tempted by the first man, the second man leapt into the river and swam across.

30th August 2009SonntagHad a tiring day at the beach barbecuing. But it was nonetheless full of fun and laughter - a luxurious escape from the daily stress. Tomorrow, or rather, later, will be another long day, with job training, followed on with what I hope would be a productive practice session.Orchestra concert's on Tuesday, and I can't seem to be able to find my bowtie.

28th August 2009FreitagA kind fisherman lived in a village by a lake. The lake had sustained his family and his fellow fishermen for generations, and they all lived harmoniously. One day, they went out to fish. His friends asked him politely if they could use his boat to store some of their equipment. Being a kindhearted person, he agreed readily. His friends dumped their extra equipment on his

27th August 2009DonnerstagThis is a common story which almost everyone has heard before. But here is it again, with a twist to it.There were two mice who fell into a bucket of milk. The first mouse thought : "Oh, life is always hard on me. I will be dead before the evening is over." Having resigned to his fate, he stopped struggling and prepared to drown.The second mouse, equally shaken by this

23rd August 2009SundayA man lived alone in a cottage by the countryside. He loves his house, and all of his belongings. One day, a fire broke out in his kitchen and spreaded to his dining room. The flames were licking at his beautiful oak dining chairs. In a bid to save the chairs, he moved them out of the house. The fire then spreaded to the hall. The man decided to move his antique clock, along

9th July 2009ThursdayWhat?! It's already the ninth of July?! Woe be me! The summer vacation is ending!But what have I done so far? Nothing much really. My practice has not been entirely honest, and it is a far cry from what I had in mind at the start of this vacation. Dive trip was cancelled, and I have yet to optimise my trumpet. And I am thinking of getting new mouthpieces. Hmm. Cashflow

10th June 2009WednesdayReflections from the water will reveal the truthI sort of lost control over myself today. I got emotional over my results, and a couple of memories that were invoked by certain words. I know the current predicament I am in was brought upon by myself, and I only have myself to blame.Liquor can't soothe the burns that has already occurred, and beer can't drown out all my

But I am extremely hesitant about opening it.Here's an update on my academics. I failed Theory 1B due to attendance problems. And I screwed up my Principal Studies module. History should be fine.

4th June 2009ThursdayThe past month was totally horrible. If I was an ostrich, my head would have already been buried under 6 feet of sand.Exam was a total flop, extreme embarrassment to myself, my teacher, and the standards expected of me. Why? Probably due to nerves. Let me recall what I thought of it immediately after stepping out of the examination room.Went rather badly. Got stiff lips

10th May 2009SundayI held your hand, but you asked me to go. I sensed the bitterness in your words and the acidity in your gaze. Do you really hate me so?I have been having sleepless nights, probably because of the upcoming exam on monday. My mind is running all over the place, and when it does get settled and I drift off to sleep, I get weird dreams.I still can't get the triplets in Danza Movida

6th may 2009WednesdayYou are deemed to have failed. Chew on that.I have been feeling pretty fucked up all the while now. Am I giving myself too much stress? But even so, it is simple things like pulse and rhythm. No excuse to mess those up. And also it has been almost 16 months since my embouchure change, and guess what? I am still hiding behind that excuse! Oh would you just give me a slap for

And I have a feeling the next update would take quite a bit of time as well.There has been some progress in certain matters. Mood has been improving as well.

24th March 2008TuesdayI think I need to stop and look at what I am doing. Evidently, my methods now are simply producing a steadily rising blood pressure, and increasingly frequent bouts of tension headaches.What exactly is wrong?I need a cask of chilled wine. Coupled with a weekend on a deserted island.

Maybe, just maybe, I could get a seat in an orchestra one day. But looking at the way things are progressing, I just get a blank in my mind. Why am I such a dreamer? Why do I have such high aspirations, but when I set out to do it,

I used to think that a creator created us all, equal amongst one another and full of brotherly love. I used to think that love built bridges from one soul to the other. I used to believe in a fairytale.But I came to realise that even if the creator

17th October 2008FridayThey say words are sharper knives. How ironic for me, who takes pride in my words, to learn that lesson the hard way.For the first time in my life, murder ran across my mind. It seems like such a simple task, to place a nail gun against another's neck, to pull the trigger and feel the recoil. How long would it take for life to ebb away through a hole in the artery the size

15th October 2008Wednesday...into the primal stage...JEALOUSY and despair runs alongside frustration. Or so I believe. Along with a full array of other emotions, mostly negative. Negative negative negative.I guess all that hate is reflected in my writings and my choice of music. Even the sound that comes out from the end of my trumpet sounds brutal and cold. Why, after thousands of years of

12th October 2008SundayThe poor among the rich among the poor.Why do I feel my shell closing up on me again? Shutting out the pain. No. Rather, shutting in the pain. It is my own struggle, my own journey. No one can ever understand it. No one will ever experience the same fight. To put it in a simpler way, the feeling of life now resembles a long run in waist deep water. The only option is to

8th October 2008WednesdayTest of goodwill, or sheer emotion manipulation?Brass band today was awfully boring. Playing the cornet sucks. At least, playing the cornet that I am using really sucks. Intonation is really bad, the mouthpiece feels weird, and I keep getting double buzz in my sound. Every brass band practice makes me feel totally demoralised, and it really is a waste of time.I always

5th October 2008SundayLazy sunday, as expected after a night of booze and insane laughter, which, unsurprisingly, done nothing more than effectively killing a couple of hours off the night.Yong Lin's birthday celebration was pretty happening, with a few good laughs here and there. Coupled with a truckload of booze, it was a miracle no one got drowned in his own beer.On lazy Sundays, usually work

29th September 2008MondayTechnically, it is Monday. But at 3am in the morning, you'd say it is indeed hard to tell the difference between a late Sunday night and a early Monday morning.You know, people usually talk about having Monday blues. But now is more of baroque Monday, rather than blues. With my 'to do' list crammed full of presentation and history related items, no wonder why my head is

27th September 2008SaturdayWhat's on the headlines these few days? You don't even have to look. Of course it's Formula 1 racing. Being a first in so many ways, the coverage of this historical event far surpasses the other upcoming events, such as the Singapore Sun Festival, the ongoing Festival Mexicano, and many others.As an international event that will ultimately draw more than a hundred

14th September 2008SundaySunny Sunday never fails to bring a back of sweat of the people toiling about their everyday chores. Even the short bus trip to Pasir Ris and back brought about a steady stream of complains.After enrolling in NAFA, I get increasingly irritated by people who misspell NAPFA (National Physical Fitness Award) as NAFA.

12th September 2008FridayEnd of term breakWhilst many other institutions are busy having examinations and regular lessons, we are blessed with a one week holiday. Though it sounds nice, the one week break is actually an excuse for lecturers to flood us with make-up lessons and mock exams.I had a lesson with Mr Richard Adams today.

16th August 2008Saturday...a degree more severe.Yes it is officially saturday now. But the way I see it, it feels like a late entry from the Friday mood.School is getting pretty stressful, and the true colours of each classmates are beginning to show. (Since the cohort is so small, I refer to the entire cohort as a class.) For some, the colours are really vibrant and sweet. Others, not as

But surprisingly, some people do think in such a manner. And by placing all the blame on themself, they think they can appease the world and everything will be fine. Purely being naive? In some cases, I think simply "being naive" is an understatement.The

Literally meaning 'as it must', is a phrase adapted from the French language. It means that one should do things according to local norms, or accepted conventions.Looking at it, I get reminded of how the 'norm' path of education is like in Singapore. Primary

23rd July 2008Wednesday...the mist will clear one day, and the path laid true.Pardon me if my entry doesn't make sense. I just need an outlet to release the excess pressure within.After three days in NAFA as a full time student, I realise that the requirements are very much different from the access course.

16th July 2008WednesdayOrientation was not as fun as I imagined it to be. Well, it really is more of matriculation than orientation. The main purpose of the whole orientation business is to register the modules, which I think had some problems. I am expecting a really chaotic first day for everyone due to the confusion in the modules registration.Here is the quiz that some people have been

14th July 2008Monday...A new beginning.Tomorrow's the orientation for NAFA. It feels weird to be going through another orientation after experiencing the one at Ngee Ann. Somehow it's like a milestone in my life, signalling a new beginning. As dreamlike as it would seem, it's happening tomorrow starting at 9am. It'll definitely be a new experience, to know everyone new that I'll be living and

Ripples of orange and yellow laced the fiery red. The clouds were still. There were layers upon layers of them, all immersed in the glory of the setting sun.The colours intensified to a climatic point, from which it

But then again, school term always drag on forever. So I guess that negates each other.When holidays come, all the work is thrown into the backseat and forgotten. Until when the holidays are running short, then everyone starts

5th June 2008ThursdayCouch potatoI'm rapidly becoming a couch potato. Except that I'm losing weight instead of gaining weight. Tonsillitis sucks. It kills your appetite, makes you puke, and makes swallowing difficult. Put that, that and that together and you have a major headache on how, or what to eat.For the past few days while I have been killing myself at home, I managed to get certain things

31st May 2008SaturdayA day with tonsillitisI woke up at 5am to puke. And nothing came out. That's not surprising considering the fact that I had totally no appetite for the past few days. The total of what I had over the past 4 days is approximately equivalent to what I usually eat in a day. And so I puked. And there wasn't even digestive juices that came out. But that made everything feel better

13th January 2008SundayBurnoutLife now is like making a sandwich. You have to try and pack everything between dawn and dusk and try to make the best out of it. It is like a sandwich making competition where you try to get the best quality from every single item you put between that two slabs of bread.And participating in such a competition requires stamina. I am picking up steam and I feel my

12th January 2008SaturdayBusy flightsI mean flights as in travelling. Not literally flight. Recently I have been really busy, and all my readers get from visiting my blog is a emo post staring back at them. Wow. Looking at the date of that post reminds me that I have not been blogging for 9 days. Damn.Anyway, for the past couple of days, life has not been flowing too smoothly. I decided to cram

3rd January 2008ThursdayIt feels weird to be typing 2008 instead of 2007. Somehow, the new year feels slightly less joyful as it should be.Maybe I am going through a rough patch here. But it really feels as though there is a tow truck trying to tow my heart away. Should I be feeling this way? I was born inquisitive. And when there is something that I do not understand, I get pretty emo. Well,

2nd January 2007WednesdayIf it isn't the post that was supposed to be the last post of 2007. But at least it is the first post of 2008 (after deleting the proxy post).First off, summary of 2007. To cut the long story short, I'm going to list the number of significant things that happened. Some are masked due to sensitive reasons.- Turned 18- Received Open Water Diver's license- Got rejected-

29th December 2007SundayVisual deficienciesNo, this post is not about any irregular physical conditions. This post is about the tendency of local citizens, namely Singaporeans, to focus more on less than important issues rather than pressing issues that require immediate attention.Starting off with the festivities. As I mentioned before in many of my posts, celebrating festivities are simply a

25th December 2007TuesdayChristmas: a realist's viewAfter weeks of not updating, I have finally decided to do a proper post (now that the effects of alcohol has worn off). Since the last update, I have been clearing my schedules, doing things that I should have done ages ago. That includes going for a dive trip, albeit a local dive, catching up with old classmates and feeling guilty for not

15th December 2007SaturdayThe air has been really clean and fresh recently. When it is not raining, I can see the lights from far away. And the beam from the lighthouse (I think it's Horsburg Lighthouse) is especially visible from my window right now. Random? But I feel that this is an observation that is worth mentioning considering the amount of pollutants we get in our air these days.The last

11th December 2007TuesdayA letter to Santa, a reminder to Man.Dear Sir,2007 is coming to an end. 2008 is arriving. Everything seems to be passing so quickly. I hope the climate change does not affect you at the North Pole. Precautions have been taken against Global Warming, which they say is the cause for the melting of the polar caps. I have no idea how serious it is. They say the sea level will

9th December 2007SundaySetbacks; one after anotherHere I am, in front of the laptop thinking about how easy it is to lose sight of your goals. Due to distractions, setbacks and more distractions, I realised that I have already lost sight of mine. What was I searching for when I started down this path? Did I dream it would be an easy fight? Well, after encountering setbacks one after another, I

2nd December 2007SundayLimitations of the human physique.Ouch. I feel as though a train slammed right through my head. My temples are throbbing and my eyes losing focus every now and then. What might have caused this intense headache? Is it a sign of a imminent mental breakdown?I feel that I have really grown a lot within this year. From a person who only cared about what happens 12 hours later,

28th November 2007Wednesday'You're not the only one with issues!'Sure enough, another obstacle runs right into my path, like an angry bull, trying to chase me down and put a hole or two in my gut. By now, I should have enough experiences with obstacles right? Afterall, my life is one hurdles event; obstacles one after another, trying to throw me down onto the floor.Turning around, I see a path

25th November 2007SundayUseless? Or simply used less?Just now during dinner, my mum mentioned about the way I was using my spoon and fork and said something about it being wrong. Then she dragged my dining etiquette courses from 3 years ago into the picture. "You went for the course, never learn meh?"Sure, I learnt about all these stuff. But who actually uses it?

22nd November 2007ThursdayLife is toughShoot me for saying that line. Life is tough and we all know it. No matter how we try to evade that fact, we know it deep down that it is true. We can delude ourselves and live in the present, feigning ignorance of the future. We can tell ourselves that the boat will eventually be straight when reaching the pier. But in our hearts, we know the truth.How many

20th November 2007TuesdaySelf help?Blogging has been around for a few years now. And somehow, blogs usually outlast the blogger. When the blogging bug hit the net a couple of years back, everyone was scrambling for the nearest blog provider, dying to create a online platform for themself. It was more of a 'keeping up with fashion' thing at that time.But as time goes by, the craze dies off. And

14th November 2007TuesdayLove, Life and LogicThe air-conditioning unit whirled noisily. The only few sounds present in my room came from my father's friend who is staying over for the night. The sound of fabric rubbing against fabric. The ruffling of hair and the occasional clearing of throat. The rapid tapping of the keys on the keyboard disrupted what was left of the still night. Yet, the

8th November 2007WednesdayUncertain laughtersThe blanket was a foot too short to cover from toe to chin. I decided to compensate by curling into a half foetal position with my body snuggly huddled under the blankets. Around me were my friends. The room was dark, and the sole television set was playing a movie that had been rented an hour ago. The silence was broken by another bout of laughter as

5th November 2007SundayNo man is a seaNo man is a sea. What does that mean? I am sure most of you have heard the phrase "no man is an island" which means that Human beings do not thrive when isolated from others. But then again, if you try too hard to encompass everyone, you will only end up hurting yourself. Especially if you hold too high an expectation for yourself. If you must accomodate

1st November 2007ThursdayPride of writingSome of you might have noticed that I have changed my blog title to Studio of Thoughts. This might be due to a change in thinking. Since I started writing, I have always taken my blog as a platform for people to find out about my life. But how many people actually care about what I was doing at x.xxpm on the xxth of September, 200x? I think watching a

26th October 2007SaturdayBlogging about nothingUsually when people blog, they have in mind something to write. But what happens when nothing comes to mind? On such occasions, such as this one, you just click open the new post page, start off with your usual dates and titles and stuff and just type whatever comes to your mind. If you are lucky, words will start flowing. If not, cross your fingers

Thursday25th October 2007Is a bad post of a good blog considered a good post?For the general public who reads my blog occasionally, I apologise for the senseless rambling and swearing that I have been posting up ever so regularly. Life really gets to me sometimes. But there are the other times where I decide to hang back a little and do a bit of random thinking. Here's something that has been

21st October 2007SundayThe truth about lying about the truth.I really am pretty selfish I guess. For my own benefits, I am even willing to leave others in the lurch and turn my back on them. Well, it is human to be selfish, no? Even with all that past posts against self pity, I still manage to find ways to get by by resolve. And again posting more posts with content which fails to address the

18th October 2007ThursdayMurfee's Lawl.Notice how some days just feel like everything is going wrong? Well, this week felt like Murphy's week to me. Everything is abiding Murphy's law like a good elementary school kid. Thinking positively, at least I have lots of things to rant and complain and get angry over. But it really upsets my schedule. Especially when you have people changing your

13th October 2007SaturdayWhat a random evening. I have my previous tuition teacher suddenly calling me and asking if I am at Xinmin for some Alumni stuff. Then after a little bit of chatting, I found out that she was also from Xinmin! Such a small world. But it is kind of weird that it took me more than 3 years to find out.Well, Xinmin has a long history. And with hundreds of students graduating
