"Passion without focus and determination leads to nowhere"
saw a similar line on somebody's tumblr this morning, cant remember who's. but it's been stuck in my mind the whole day.

i kinda noticed a phenomenon...
when you are with your friend(s), are you always walking in front, or at the back?
.

well i kinda noticed.. if you are someone that tends to, or often subconsciously, walk at the front, you're probably a person who's got many eyes on you, and you are someone who captures a lot of attention. But lesser things/people can capture your attention.
on the contrary, if you are someone that feels more comfortable and always walking at the back, you're probably the ones that always fixes your attention on others, but very minimal attention will be on yourself, because everyone is infront of you and no one else can really notice you.
hahaha. i dont know whether if it can be relative or not. i dont know how true this is either. hmm. just random thoughts that came to my brain today. hahaha.

well today we were just having a conversation with this 23 years old dance instructor during our break. he talked about how tough it is to try to make our hobby our career, especially if you're intending to persue it in the arts sector.
and there was this thing i noticed in the way he spoke, alot of it was about financial stability. can't just do what we like and ignore our income, gotta try and find means and methods to earn enough not just for ourselves but for our family. he even mentioned about girls at his age start to look out for guys who have a stable income, it's not just pure feeling and the teenage innocent "love" anymore. hahahaha. quite stunned to hear that. he said something like this: "everyone else is going on tours, having enough money to enjoy life after a period of hard work. then i look at myself, what i am doing?"
i mean, these are things that have been on my mind constantly, it's just that when you hear it from someone who's been through it, everything becomes more like reality and it freaks me out.
what shocked me even more was him mentioning that he only started dancing when he was in poly. and now he's a dance instructor who seems.. very good at it, to me? hahaha idk how that marks the standard but yeah. but for me, if i've also only started to think about making music as my career in poly, am i going to make it?
ICOM, Berklee, Lasalle, NAFA. im thinking that when i mention the first two as my future academic options, people will be thinking: "peixiu? cannot one lah." hahaha that's fine to me because even i have that thought -.- how unconfident. but then so how? im only left with half a year, yes half a year.
If i really want to survive doing Music, i'll need to be really determined. So strong that nothing can waiver this decision.
hmm maybe i really have too much time now, at least nothing much to keep my brain occupied, and so i keep thinking about all these everyday. sigh
anyway sorry for the lengthy post :/ the thoughts are flying through my brain. verbal diarrhea. hahaha

7th September 2010. A rather bad day. argh
went out shopping the whole day with only 20 bucks. we spent the whole day from 12 noon all the way to 10pm, shopping from far east all the waaaaaaaaaay to marina square. by feet. legs dying already now. hahah.
today's the 7th day of the month, but our timesheet havent got approved. the whole afternoon i was just panicking and checking the website, and finally cannot tahan and decided to call the school. hopefully it is settled and the status of the approval on the website now doesnt matter anymore.
after that, we were walking and laughing like crazy and i stepped on a puddle of vomit. *pukes*
then received a fucking weird call apparently from hongkong. it sounded quite real, but it's too good to be true. 卫视中文台, Venetian Hotel, DHL. all sounds quite reliable but there seemed to be loopholes. i'm now damn worried about what's gonna happen tomorrow. argh fuck. i just hope nothing bad happens and if i need to get punished for my momentary greed it'll just be the amount spent on that 20min international phone call.
peixiu, stay calm and dont do foolish things tomorrow. good things dont appear out of the blue. dont let the greed overtake that rational mind. be smart. RAHHHH.
