New Start

Hi!

My oh-so-fun time has finally ended, as I have resumed my education again. I've moved into my accommodation on campus, and it is rather homey! Much to my delight! It even has enough space for my keyboard! YAY! REJOICE! I can bring ScherzForté in! (That's the name I gave my keyboard LUL)

It's been a week since I started staying there, and I believe I have adjusted already to the new environment. Everything's been packed nicely, and necessities are complete. I will be coming back home for these 2 weekends to transport my "studio" into my room, AND to meet up with Animenz! OHHHHHH THE DREAM IS REAL..... 


Oh yeah. Its him alright.... (~`,`)~

As to how production will proceed, I plan to make 2 videos a month. Sheets will be still be made for songs that I deem fit. Hopefully the discipline I've cultivated these whole 9 months will prevail and bring me good returns both academically and musically. Hopefully no matter how busy I will be, I pray I keep to my quota. 


I hope this doesn't happen. God forbid it please. 

Nothing interesting happened so far in campus. Registration and induction came and went, met a few friends here and there, and now I am just waiting for classes to begin on Monday. 

I pray for a glorious chapter here. 

Well, here is the video for this posting:




And the sheets as well:

Thank you for all the support thus far! I hope to receive your continuous support throughout my journey here on, as it means a lot to me. I will be very much motivated in my strive and I hope to live up to my/your expectations. 

See you again~

Hmmmm...


I'm having PADS (Post Anime Depression Syndrome). Too much feels. I haven't been able to touch my piano for a week now... ITS JUST TOO MUCH!!

OK. I know anime can be tear jerking, and even though I've watched this anime a long time ago, I had to rewatch it after doing some research on its origins: a game. Not a very child friendly game, maybe about 15+ age restriction, it just tore me apart after I got to know the TRUE ENDING of the anime.

The feels didn't hit me immediately, but when I started thinking how things would be from the Heroine's perspective, I got drowned in the feelssss...  Plus how the main character did all he could to hold on to her, but had to let her go because he loved her enough to do so. I just lost it. I couldn't be normal for 2 days... The feels were at their peak for 2 FULL DAYS. 


T_T


Long story short, I managed to "console" myself with some side stories of the game, which do not reflect the continuation of the REAL story, and pushed myself to binge watch the anime before I have to commit myself to studies. I am slightly better right now, but I believe its gonna take some time to get back to normal... 

Got any idea of which anime I'm talking about? It's Fate/Stay Night. 


"I'm back, Saber-"



"Yes- Welcome back, Shirou."

'Sniffles' For those 2 days, those images of The True Ending always make me tear up... AND this line from Shirou: 

"Someday, my memories of her will fade. Her voice, her actions – I might forget them as well. But even 
then, I will always remember that I loved Saber."




This scene is also very touching...
Can I have some tissues pls? ;_;


I'm gonna have to find something else to watch! Ohh my poor tender heart....

Anyway, here is the corresponding video for this posting: 





See you next time~

New Chapter Awaits...

Hi.

It has been some time since I finished my previous chapter of schooling life. Upon completion, I was blessed with an opportunity to DO WHATEVER THE HEELLL I WANTED TOOOOO~

A little story ahead:

Earlier in the year, I knew that I had a LOT of time before really starting another schooling life, so I had to draft out a few plans, both long and short term plans, to make sure I don't waste as much time as I did once... ZZZZZ


Drafted out I did, and 2 plans stood out the most: I wanted to dive into some anime and build my YouTube channel. The former didn't ask for time commitment, but the latter was something that took some consideration. I had serious plans for my YouTube journey, and I planned to make a video a week to start things off. Even though working part time was also part of my plans, I didn't want to holdback on production simply because of working. So in the end, I spent more time on my piano, more than I ever had, than working for money. LUL



As for the anime watching, after finishing last study chapter, I had some thinking on the meaningfulness of my schooling life so far. WELL, cringy as it will sound, I did noticed some absence of 'colour' in it. Brought up in a rather strict family, I didn't spend alot of screen time on computers or TV, but spent most of my time studying for results. I did obtain results, but truth be told, I didn't really belong anywhere in any 'social groups' in school. I kept thinking had I had something in common with to talk about with my friends, I wouldn't be so alone. (I did have friends, but I always felt like I wasn't their FIRST-TO-GO friend when it came to hang out or something. Though I was one of the FIRST-TO-GO-TO-WHEN-HOMEWORK-IS-CONCERNED guy... LUL.) 
So basically, when it came to description of colours, I would say that my schooling world was kinda black and white... Whut.)

Nice art by JHEROCHJP. Ya, this was how it's like...

With the opportunity of time given to me, I decided to catch up on anime that were popular during those days, and watch some on-going series so far. And boy, did I have fun. And I enjoyed on seeing all the colours that I had missed all this while...

BOOYAH! Everything started to look rather more lively then.

So in my daily timetable earlier this year, it was something like this: watch anime, play my piano, play Dota, Undertale etc, exercise every alternate days, work, and do some basic Maths work.... Not in that order of importance. And what did you know.... I made some friends too! YAY!

Many events have taken place in the span of 9 months, and I learnt tons through the series I watched, through the colleagues I met at work, and just reflecting on how I could have led a more colourful life earlier on. And now, the time is nearing its expiration, and I have to prepare to step into reality once more. I will take all that I've learned, harvested, and developed, and write a new chapter in my life. And this time, I WILL NOT BACK DOWN. 

Reality, I will bring my dreams to you, and I will make them into YOU. 

Thanks for scrolling all the way down, though I'm not too sure if anyone will actually read it HAHAHSHAHASHDASJDHASJKDHASKJDHK!!! 

Anyway, here is the upload for this entry: Eric Chou's How Have You Been.


See you! (~`,`)~

A Work Revisited

=)

Recently I looked back at my works earlier in the year, and I could say that it has been a fun ride. I also noticed how amateurish my playing was. Maybe it will take some time to see some notable results... Though I hope it won't go unrealized.


"Perhaps it's not so much on the end results that matter the most, but the process and path you take that will determine its worth." 


I could start worshiping that phrase...


A work revisited, a video corrected, and some sheets to share. Here are the sheets for Kung Fu Panda 3's Try.

See you again~


PS: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

I will soon have to commit myself to studies, and as such, I will not be able to keep up to the 1-video-a-week quota, WHICH SUCKS =(. But I can't fight with reality... Do not despair (my friends and MYSELF). I will try to upload maybe twice a month, a proper video and/or sheets. Hopefully I can still find materials and time to improve myself, and hopefully reach for the stars that I have set my goals upon. 

Thank you.

Sincerely,
- DrewyJin -
