First Month Passes...

How was January? =)

"What do you like?" 

I believe one of the many things that I have learnt through my experiences in Uni now is really how to prioritize your responsibilities and play. WE all have, not just one, but many LIKES. We all like doing stuff that make us happy, and to be honest, it would be SO GREAT if we could summon Shadow Clones and do all our things, and share a 'connected consciousness' so that we can experience all the things the Clones do all at the same time. So if you sent one to play while the real you studies, you are actually playing and studying at the same time! 


So the common idea here is that we all have to prioritize studies over anything else. Let's say you're done with all your work, and wanna play a bit. Which of your interests would you prioritize? 

Uni life really is the last platform before stepping into society. If all the saying that 'University is the best part of your life bla bla bla bla...' things are all true, I really wonder if that statement applies only to TALENTED people... I think I mentioned this before, but I get really TRIGGERED when I hear the word TALENT. Maybe its just me being salty that I'm not as talented, or rather, NOT TALENTED in anything I do. Even this blog name says it. "I'M NOT TALENTED. I PRACTICE ONLY." (I could have made it proper, but it was with intention to name it as such...) I mean, how's one suppose to make sure one doesn't fail ANY SUBJECTS while looking for experiences to claim that the time in Uni is the best? It's even worse when you have to maintain a scholarship! All you think of is study study study... And some friends I've met in Uni just talk nothing but STUDY STUDY STUDY!!!! 


I find such people BORING. They wanna live the 'Normal' life: Graduate, get a job, and work work work work work (sing it in Rihanna's Work song haha). 

What are their dreams? What do they look for beyond the scope of their degree? 

Sigh... It's a real tragedy if one just lives his life out by only working... I don't wanna end up like that... I wanna live my dream. I wanna be different. I wanna be among the best, no matter how damn untalented I am. Rock Lee said this once: " I was not born with a whole lot of natural talent, not gifted like Neji ...but I work hard and I never give up! That is my gift, that is my ninja way!"  Or something like "Hard work always defeats talent." 
I remember it was when Sasuke first met Rock Lee, and they fought... 


"I am not talented, but I want to continue to improve, until I can be worthy to stand among the talented people. And when they ask of my talents, I will say: I am not talented. I have none. I just practice. "

That is my way. MY way.

Ice it babeh~

Hey fam~ I'm finally back in town and I've done a video~

Hm... I hope I did fine....

Here's a bit of story behind this piece: I actually had planned to upload it on Wednesday, but at the last moment, I noticed that there was a syncing error in the video. It was rather bad, and I had to work back at the raw files to try and sync it again. BUT, the more I edited, the worse it actually got. It got to a point that I didn't want to keep trying to 'make it look synced', and I just had to re-record the whole piece to get a proper audio/video sync. Luckily it was just TV sized opening, so I actually enjoyed playing the piece over and over again... Well, for now; since I'm just back from exams.... Not sure if I will have the patience to do this again....
Not related to the sentence above... Just look how cute he is~ <3

Chinese New Year is just around the corner already, and here's the video for the season: Yuri!!! On ICE OP History Maker.

Small Hold Up

Hey Fam~

I know it's been rather quiet from my side, but just to pop some news. At the moment, I have some examinations to sit through, and didn't really have the state of mind to do a proper recording. I'm almost done with them, so a video or 2 can be expected by the end of the month. At least ONE~

Damn I miss my piano. I took my piano home when I last went back, then I came back to uni without it, cuz 2 weeks of examinations not gonna permit much time for practice anyway.

I hope I don't forget what I've arranged so far. So do stay tune, and thanks for dropping by!
