三戒

少年:血气未定,戒之在色。
中年:血气方刚,戒之在斗。
晚年:血气既衰,戒之在得。

怎样做个好朋友?

忠告而善道之,不可则止,勿自辱也。

益损三友

益者三友;

友直,友谅,友多闻。

损者三友;

友便辟,友善柔,友便佞。

小小的意见

Sometimes it's better to take a step back and admit that effort does not always bring success. Not always where and when you desire the success to be anyway.

As a musician, we must come to terms with ourselves; everyone's ability/progress in music is different.

Music is not an academic paper. It does not mean that endless practice always guarantees good performance. Sometimes it is time that nurtures that experience and musical stamina.

What I always ask myself is, that, does my music sound good? Do I derive pleasure from performing it? Will the audience enjoy it?

There's no point playing an extremely difficult concerto if all we present are technique flaws, musical inadequacies and the final revelation on stage that we are just not ready YET.

欲速则不达。

我会了!!!

yay!!! I've just learnt how to link the imeem playlist with my blog.
hah hah cool. (Parang probably shaking his head...)

Ok la, for an ex-computer engineer undergrad, I'm pretty slow at this kind of things. Actually I never consider myself to have graduated.

How on Earth had I chose to do Computer in "A" levels and to come to this state of total disassociation with the subject?

I think it is virtually impossible that I'll ever do a job that is desk-bound. I can't imagine how dry and withered my life would become, sitting in front of that computer everyday, or attending corporate meetings on a weekly basis. I think I'd rather be a hairdresser/full time baby-sitter than doing that!

I always wondered why I've never set foot onto becoming a vet. It's one of my ambitions when I was young. But, somehow, it never made it to any part of my life and I've never begun to do any work in that field in my life.

Perhaps in another alternate universe, exists my reality as a vet.

你快乐(所以我快乐)

如果时间可以重来,你会选择回到那一刻?

改变什么?

改变了也不一定更好,我只想看看另一个角度的幸福。

分离的。但,同步的幸福。

Don't ask me where I sit...

I've decided to do some cleaning up on my part. For my school desk that is.

So here's the "BEFORE":


Hopefully, by next week, I'll be ready with the "AFTER".
