Yesterday: My HMP Additional Paper got really screwed up 'cause I messed up the track listings and I only realised it after I finished about 2/3s of my Discography and audio extracts :/ So I was feeling really frustrated and vexed and tired considering I've accumulated a long-unpaid sleep debt. I spent like, 1 hour plus doing everything and messing it up made me feel really despondent, especially since it was already near midnight. :/ But in the midst of it all, someone I really didn't expect struck a conversation with me and initially I just dismissed it as a passing moment but well.. We had a rather deep conversation that was quite inspiring :} Mm, talked about passion vs interest, determination, dreams, goals, ambitions. I haven't talked about that in a long time and I guess the conversation let me dig deeper into myself and what I really want in life. Yup, an inspiring conversation with an unexpected person, but it was good while it lasted. (:
Today: Yeah well first day of school, it was good seeing the Twelvers again :D Lessons are a drag as usual but I've got a newfound motivation and I'm Inspi(red) to work harder to do well for EOYS and leave Nanyang without regrets (last year afterall, right? Gotta give it all!) :D GCP briefing was alright, 17 Twelvers AWESOME shit hahaa, can't believe I'm going to UK ^^ It's something to look forward too heehee :}
Anyway, we had our second last HMP lesson of the year today and I never really noticed how quickly time flew by. Can still remember last year I was whining and moaning "I HATE HMP!!!!!" and I couldn't wait to be done with it all, but this year I feel quite sad that it's ending. Hahaha, and it's only been less than a year! Surprising, eh? But yeah I think taking up HMP has really increased my love and passion towards music. In fact, I never realised but somewhere along the dread and angst, my passion started to grow stronger. This year I even took the initiative to source for concerts and search for nice classical pieces :D Plus setting goals for my Guzheng Exam at the end of the year haha.
Mm, I'm actually considering taking Music at A Levels next year haha. A rather insane thought, and definitely a huge risk to take since my foundation isn't exactly THAT strong and it took me quite some time to grasp how to answer HMP questions and score (3 years omg) and I'm worried I can't cope with Music next year. Yeah, it's true that passion will motivate me and drive me to work hard to do well and whatnot, but I'm afraid I'll regret my choice and mess everything up, especially since I've got to take A Levels.
Sigh I hate thinking about subject combinations because I really don't know what I want - Arts? Science? Hybrid?
... I have no mood to continue with this.
Love - your blood, smeared all over my cheeks and my hands.
