A Short Post

2am, silent air outside, kenny g music playin softly from speakerz.

They say if u step out of ur comfort zone, a whole new world opens up to u. Well, I was surprised to find ppl's blogs so short dat i thought, why not me too? It goes easy on the eyes as well.

Din study whole day. Nagging guilt. Spent whole day runnin around preparin for clarinet gathering tmrw (or rather, today). Buyin stuff, tryin to bring down costs, thinkin of entertainment. Suddenly advised NOT to have gathering tmrw. Cuz after practice, voting results will be announced, mebe streets not safe. Sigh, whole day wasted. Oh well, quite a few cant make it tmrw anywayz.

Main purpose wan2 target 1 junior. I see her very sad in band, dun mix well with others, she english-speakin surrounded by chinese-speakin ppl. I understand how she feels, i spent 9 years in a band whom i dun reli understand as well. Gets kinda lonely sumtimes, not understandin pplz jokes. But slowly, u mix with them, ur sense of humor oso blend with them, ah , u feel part of the band, whether u banana or mango. Very hard to "kacau" her, she dun respond dat well, so shy all the time. Mebe in this gatherin, other juniors will mix with her as well. If not, can lose a potential band player. Must establish the sense of belonging.

Tmrw end practice early, 5.30pm. Yeah, we're playin Summon the Heroes, dem cool olympics theme song, dem loud timpanis banging away, and i get a few solo parts! Well, its more of a "play-the-rhythm-while-band-goes-silent" parts. But its still dem cool to hear a bass clarinet playing like a lone beating heart beating away in the expansive silence of a huge universe.

Voting day tmrw. Forgot to register, so cant vote. Wait another 4 yearz. Dat time no time to even register, probably.

Just finished watchin Stardust with bro and sis on tv. Haha, dem funny show, Robert De Niro dem funny. Cool photography and angles, wish i could do stuff like dat. Romantic movie, ah, its a work of escapism. Makes u all wishy-washy. What would it be like to fall in love with a star?

Midz of surgery, Sunday have to go back early and clerk case. New lecturer wants to have case presentation at 7.15am in the morning on Monday. Crazy, patient oso havent wake up yet. Means i have to start walkin at 6.45am, or i drive the car.

Sigh, sem9 here so fast. 5 months to go, time flies while ur in medical school. Must enjoy times with friends, afterwards all go back to their individual states, rarely cross paths with them. Play futsal perhaps? Sigh, dun noe why i hate sports so much. Got two left legs. Just love a good book (and lotsa peanuts or kuaci), or just crapping with friends. I got no sport spirit...

2 weeks time have to emcee a wedding ceremony. SGM member from our chapter marryin a Thai girl. Haha, wonder how to do it. "We gather here today on this very aussipi... auspisios... aupsipicous...(bah) ...beautiful day...". Must make a memorable day for them.

Last week opened a stone exhibition with our recital piece, Mozart's Wind Quintet in Eb. As usual, no one in the audience could make out the mistake. Thats classical music for u there.

Oh well, time to sleep, my circadian rhythm probably all screwed up by now.

Nitez.

i'm still a banana. the thing is, we bananas are more comfortable being in a comb, like how bananas originally sprout from a tree.

put together with mangoes, we just don't mix that well. unless it's in a blender, maybe.

we bananas appreciate the efforts you take, though. but sometimes, bananas just go better with ice-cream.
