In Life, it's not where you go.. It's who you travel with.
In Life, it's the company which matters more.
Thankful for those who are around and supporting me =)

Music
Well, I guess Life has been rather kind with me..
Led a rather smooth sailing Life for the past 20 odd years...
But recently, I guess I'm badly hit..
Hmmm.. probably it's not as bad as what I think
But enough to make me feel troubled, worried, depressed.
And well, what caused me to feel this way right now is due to music..
Music, something which used to make me feel relaxed, but now, it's making me suffocated, worried, and even caused me to have a headache now..
I'm not sure if I am competent, but I know I lack of confidence..
I'm not sure if teaching is my cup of tea, but I know I hope to teach my students well and see them progress..
But how to get these things done, I'm not too sure
Guess I'm filled with lots of uncertainty and that's why I am having so many concerns right now..
Well, I have a student who is rather good in music.. scored 141/150 for grade 1..
scored 135/150 for grade 3 mock exam..
But scored 114/150 for her actual exam. How I wish this is a dream..
You might think it's a pass, not bad, at least she didn't fail..
But how am I suppose to break the news to her? And how am I supposed to tell her parents..
And how is she supposed to tell her parents?
She was kinda penalized for playing her piece too slow.. and a couple more aspects..
Guess we expected way too high, so now the fall came a bit too harsh..
21 marks difference.. that's a lot.. 2 grades you know! How??
And ya, my Indian student is quitting..
I have always wished that she would quit..
But now that the school tells me she's quitting..
I'm feeling sad, and reflecting now..
Why did she quit? Is it because of me? or herself?
Yup, so now I'm at this crossroad..
A decision to whether to continue teaching or not..
I guess I have been to reliant on my teacher..
But music isn't just 1+1= 2 or something which you could add up using a calculator..
People always say this when they know I play the piano and achieved diploma..
Go teach piano lah! Good money leh!
But I'm thinking.. Am I fit to earn that money.. I'm not too sure.
I HOPE TOMORROW WILL BE A BETTER DAY.

Amazed
Amazed with how people handle problems..
Recently, I was quite stressed up because of accepting a new job..
Well, basically I thought, I have a lot of time, but apparently, I was wrong..
And because of accepting this new job, I found myself having a dilemma...
Because a new job = increase in income = decrease in amt of leisure time = no time to prepare for test and projects!
And so, I tried rejecting this new job even though I went through the interview and such..
I guess, normally employers, when they encounter such irresponsible staff, they would be turned off and they will reject you immediately, saying that, okay, case close, You and I have no more business with one another...
Especially when I rejected her when she needs people most, I thought probably she would hate me to the core..
But surprisingly, this lady, Alice, she told me it's okay and even offered me a slot to work after my exams..
Hey! I only met you once and you trusted me so much even after disappointing you..
I amazed with her ability to handle problems and in the area of managing HR.
Wouldn't that make you feel like wanting to commit to that job when you have the opportunity to work for her?
Totally amazed.

我的父亲
The title sounds like a primary school essay right?
Haha! Well, maybe because this post is from a girl who is still young at heart and still behaves like a little primary school girl! (DON'T PUKE!)
Anyways, who is it from doesn't really matter. Today's topic is just now, who my dad is.
I would say, my dad is not a hero, not a superman, not a very successful person, but is a person whom I care and who cares for us! A person who perhaps don't really show his concerns, but yet somewhat pays attention to our needs..
Hmm.. Well, he used to be a very loving and family person.. Someone who brings his family around during weekends. We used to frequent airport for lunch, ECP for cycling (My parents always cycle on a double bike, and I get to sit on a add-on chair when I was young. Haha! I like being ferried around by my parents, enjoying the sea breeze and singing out of tune songs!), kite flying at i-really-dunno-where, embarking on adventures during almost all our weekends! Hmmm, but now, everyone seems to be busy and such things didn't happen again! I remember during the last cycling trip, I was cycling on my own and kept on bumping into people.. so I told my parents next time I'm going to cycling a double one with either of them! Haha! Oh! It was my Dad who taught me how to cycle! Well, we started off when I was very young, around 1m tall? He put me on his enormous huge bike, where my legs could barely touch the peddles. Then I started peddling while he stood behind me, supporting and pushing my bike.. So at one point of time, I turned and realised my Dad wasn't supporting it anymore, guess what! I think I almost fell! (Think lah, can't really remember!)
Anywho, recently, I think my parents are in this Love-Hate relationship! Haha! Mum always grumble and nag at Dad and Dad is always doing irritating stuff to my Mum.. I guess that's part of getting attention? But today, Mum was saying she wants to buy a new phone and that it's always very troublesome to get Dad to go along to shop for phones.. But well, since he knew that we are going to see the phones today, Dad kept phoning to ask where we were so he could get the plan signed by today.. Well, I guess deep down, there's still this Love for his family, his wife.
