Updates!

Still rather stagnant blog here :/ I mean, with twitter today I barely have to even type anything here. But I thought doing this once in a while helps me keep track, especially when I read back my posts months or even years later :p

So yeah, time flies so damn quickly that my first year in lasalle is ending in a month's time. Curriculum time is way too little anyway -.- Oh well. This semester I've written few more pieces: a string trio, a percussion solo, and currently working on 2 more pieces. Sad to say that up till now I have not found any clear direction in my composition route. I have honestly learnt alot of stuff over the year, and to a certain extent even struggling at absorbing the knowledge. I feel enriched at moments that I learn new things, while depressed when my compositions don't turn out the way I wish for them to be..


Oh did I forget to mention? School's booking system is so horrible, with guests that are constantly invited from overseas, we don't even get a proper room to have our performance and recordings. Just looking at the pictures with the guest musicians in that small terribly ugly room is just depressing. Pay so much fucking school fees and don't even get proper facilities. Zzz okay done ranting. 

My life's like a roller coaster ride now, with lots of ups and downs, emotionally and physically. Gradshow 2013 was a few weeks back and I got nostalgic and started to miss everything in dmat again.   Sigh. 



Music, where will you lead me to?
