Breakaway



休息是爲了走更長遠的路,對我來說不知這樣,對我的身心還非常有益呢。哈。若不是這一趟旅行,還不知道自己對自己期望過高,給自己的一大堆不必要的壓力。

這囘暫時不寫太多關於這趟旅行發生的事情。或許有時間的話我會寫一些遊記吧。。(觀音保佑)

現在的感覺好像剛充了點的電池。知道自己終究還是需要面對現實,努力賺錢養活自己,只有努力工作,希望除了$$之外還可以賺到一些知識及經驗。努力努力!!

話説回來,這趟旅行還真是讓我獲益良多。發生了一些不在預期中的事情,可是,就如我的旅伴所說的,這些事情才會讓你永遠記得這趟旅行。在飛機上認識的兩個有趣的‘友仔’,在旅途中遇到來自不同國家的旅客,‘勒索’我們的火車站員工,強迫我提早購買電話的一場大雨。。。哈哈。太好玩了。還真的不捨得的。。

下一個旅行快快來~~~~

p/s: 希望那兩條‘友仔’在中國的旅程愉快啦。

Breakaway is good for health. Didn't know how much pressure I put on myself until my trip to Vietnam, which just ends early this morning. It's indeed refreshing.

Not going to write much about the trip in this post. Perhaps if time allows I'll write travelogues here. :D Hopefully.

Anyway, recharged now. Knowing I have to face the reality still, to continue to work, earn for my own living, and I'll try my best and earn myself more knowledge and experience in this few years.

By the way, there are quite some unexpected stuff that happened during our trip. But , as what my buddy said, those are what made a trip memorable, no matter it's good or bad. Met 2 interesting fellas that added colors into our trip, talked with travelers from different countries, train station staff that demanded for tips, a big rain at Sapa that forced me to buy a new phone earlier than I planned... and a lot more. Sigh. I miss the trip. Haha.

Looking forward for our next trip. Hahaha.

p/s: Hope the 2 interesting fellas are enjoying themselves in their journey at China.

Jam



Band room
Disclaimer: Please focus on the band room only. In order to protect my fellow band mates.. some important parts are censored. :D



Wohoo!! Just came back from my first ever jamming session. Haha.
To me, it's very memorable, coz it's my first time playing with true skillful guitarists and bassist, instead of playing alone, accompanied by only a dull computer. Especially after learning drum for quite a while. Ha. Failure.
It's a good chance for me to force me to improve my drumming skill, and I'm glad that they didn't mind my poor drumming skills. Hope to learn more in the future.

Hmm.. a bit closer to what I want. :D Continue to work harder!!!!! I'm coming :D hohoho

Salute





Just came back from meeting a great great friend/senior/sifu. Hmm. If you still remember, she's the one that introduced HOCC to me. My erhu sifu + music mentor. Grateful.

I think she's born with some special cells in her. She has great skills not only in erhu, but guitar as well. I was just excited watching her play guitar just now. Salute. Hmm. If you have a blog or website I'll definitely add it into my 'Salute' list there. Ha.

Conclusion of the day: I still have a long long way to go. Hahaha.. Need to work very very much harder.

p/s: Really thanks for everything.

The night without Score





Just came back from the small performance.

What makes it special enough for me to update my blog after left it idle for so long is that Jo didn't bring her scores (I always rely on her scores, coz I don't have any :D ) So we just played without any scores tonight.

It's been so long since the last time she didn't bring scores. Surprisingly I found that playing without score allows me to be more concentrate on what I'm playing, what to add. Salute to my very great partner Jo for her great yang-qin skill as well.

Nice one. Enjoyed it very much.

p/s: Still unable to play like this all the time. Too bad the songs we know are still very limited.

剛完成了小小演出。
能讓我有充足的能量去update我的blog的事情一定不簡單。哈。今天的演出是在沒有譜的情況下完成的。佐沒帶譜子,而我也從來沒有什麽譜子。就這樣兩人就在沒有譜的情況下完成了今天的小小演出。雖然這不是第一次,但距離上一次也已經很久了。依然還是會令我興奮。

發現自己在這樣的情況下能夠更專心。(犯賤)當然也是因爲有著一位很棒的揚琴手拍檔-佐。

很享受今晚的演出。

p/s:也不能每一次都不帶譜,會的歌曲還非常的有限。哈哈。。

Music @ Malaysia

幾個月前自己在外頭租了房子,第一次擁有自己的空間,就興致勃勃地從家裏搬了一箱子自己從中學時期到現在所買的的CD。話説回來,看到那一箱子,還真的‘投資’了不少錢在裏面。了解爸爸從前看到我們買CD邊搖頭嘆息的樣子是爲何了。哈。沒辦法,買CD帶給我的‘快感’是永遠多過買了什麽名牌衣服,或日用品。

哦,今天的重點不在那一箱CD。這幾個月就慢慢的從那一堆CD裏選了一些CD再重聼,(不好意思,很多的CD都被冷落了一段日子。)包括現在我在聽著,被感動著的這一張----何芸妮的《Who》。不少人標榜著“我愛音樂,音樂萬歲!”,卻只聼外國著名樂團,就算是愛好獨立音樂也只聼外國出了名的獨立厰牌。其實好的聲音,好的音樂是不分國界的。很慶幸的是我們這裡也有不少讓人感動的聲音,也有不少人在為真正的好音樂默默努力著。希望好音樂會繼續地出現。知音人也會越來越多。

p/s II : 被left out的感覺還真滿難受。

p/s III : 請不要抱有太大的期望,那其實是一個很小很小的箱子。。哈哈。抱歉之前誤導了大家。哈哈。

Management



Hong Kong, Hocc Concert trip, Oct 2006



Management is indeed a very tough thing to learn. Especially managing a very limited resource which you always wish you have more. Currently I'm trying very hard to learn how to manage 2 of very limited resources of mine -- time and money.

Everyone has the same number of hours per day. I didn't realize how time flies until I have only a few hours per day doing things I want. Sometimes I even have to plan the time needed to take my bath, eat, and what other things I can do at the limited time left. Pathetic. I guess this is where time management comes in. Have to do everything in the most EFFECTIVE way, like those wise people says. Sometimes it's just so tiring to race with time. Suffocated. Hope there will be some space to take a deep breath in the midst of the crazy chasing time. The good thing about this is that it forces me to learn to plan things ahead, which I never did in the past 22 years. Ha.

The same goes to my money. Limited resource. Ha.. MONEY~~~~ I NEED MONEY~~~~ hahaha.. I will manage you too, Mr. Money.

I will survive.. Spend wise, and plan wise. (Hybernating myself again) I'll grow stronger :D

Wohooo!!

My first post from home! Phew, finally, after > 5 months of working-without-broadband-at-home life. That's a disaster man~ Finally I can do my own stuff at home now. :)

Good news eh. That's why I'm still here although I should go to bed now :D
