    Goodbyes
  • regrets.
    ++Saturday, May 21, 2011 ++


    One of my worst fear came true.

    Because of the generation gap and the possible awkwardness,

    I was never daring enough to give you a big and tight hug,

    to tell you that I actually love you very, very much.

    Now all I can do is to grieve by the casket.

    R. I. P.

    molto appassionato.
    ++Tuesday, May 17, 2011 ++


    My first ambition was to be a teacher; I think I was 4?

    Later on I decided that being an astronaut is much cooler,

    and through the years I've wanted to be an actor, a scientist, a journalist......

    It didn't settle, at least not until 14 - after attending a performance that inspired me so deeply.

    From then onwards, I became madly in love with music and the violin.

    A chance to learn the violin under prefessional guidance didn't come easy for a small town boy -

    what I've been through was nothing in comparison to those of the great musicians,

    but it wasn't exactly 一帆风顺.

    That is why I gotta thank my family, my teachers and all my friends,

    for all the effort and encouragement.

    I'm made a better performer and musician because of you.

    And for this I shall perform my best to bring music alive, and be proud of myself.

    Wish me the best for my recital.

    Alles Gute!

    I thought I must have misplaced it, and I was damn emo.

    Searching through the practice rooms, the music office, the reception...

    It was no where to be found.

    Then there it was - in my locker, afterall.

    Not at the compartment I usually keep it though.

    I hate metronomes,

    but I treasure this very one which I've been using since I was a kid.

    It had seen me growing as a musician.

    Alles Gute!

    life goes on.
    ++Tuesday, March 15, 2011 ++


    I realise how immature and puerile I was, complaining about life in my previous entry.

    I was stunned by the disastrous happenings in Japan;

    but that is not all.

    How they responded to such situations have me a newfound respect for these nihon-jins.

    Life goes on despite the unfortunate events; a non-stopping journey.

    How tiny and ungrown I am - I shall feel ashamed.

    Alles Gute to all.

    How's life? Crappy is the word.

    Things aren't going in the right way they should.

    Stress much; be it school, music, friendship, family...

    I pray for good health - especially the ones I love.

    Alles Gute!
