Real Life ~ Uploading Maniac

Oh yes, finally Valentine's Day came!^^ Not because I want to celebrate with anyone special or anything BUT, to take the chance to upload my violin videos. I was worried that I would not be able to play so well when today came & that I was not in the mood, too busy... bla bla bla. All that crap that happens once in awhile or, in my life, most of the time. Lol. xD

So, I did most of the recording on 15th of January 2011. I was not doing well for the 2 Grade 5 songs at that time. Was even depressed and the emotions were unstable. Man, I will still be like that in the future but I must never be given the chance to quit violin. NEVER.

It's true I am no prodigy. Not sure if I've shared this quote with you before but I quoted it from my Chinese homework last year. With all my strength trying to understand what that whole passage said, I quoted something from it. It said that
"A true prodigy is not one who does something well without hard work or sweat, but one who works for everything, pushing him or herself to do better."

It gave me a bit of hope, you know. I know it may not be something everybody agrees with but why not believe in it if it makes one work harder to do better?

The reason for this post is so that I can update on my life and also to share the links with you, for every violin video I made and uploaded onto YouTube.

There should be about 10 videos, if I have not mistaken. xD

OK, so there ARE 10 videos. ^^

Not all are great. In fact, either I am being modest or having serious inferiority complex, I'd say none are amazing. Almost everyone can play them.

I still have a long way to go. D:

Please wish me luck? xD

Tomorrow's a holiday. Hooray, I have more time to finish my homework... *laughs weakly*

Hehe, betcha wanna say "NERD!" After all, I cannot help being like that. I was not so nerdy last year though. To be honest, even though I did all my homework, not all were handled seriously. I never paid attention in almost every lesson. Come to think of it, it really WAS a miracle as to how I can get 4A's. Let's just say, now I am thanking my lucky stars for that. Sorry it took this long.

Being in Sub Science ICT class is not all that easy but I gotta say my current classmates are nicer, even if they almost all borrow my homework to copy or use as a reference.

As long as I get my books back and have my homework marked in time, I am OK with it.

One thing I learned from the big exam last year. It taught me how trivial school exams are. No, stop your criticism now. It's true. I actually finished by the time the exam time ended. Usually, I could "sleep" for some time before it really ends.

I realized that depending on project marks was not a good thing to do. Also, homework marks ain't something to be too serious about. It did not help your big exam in the end. Just do not be too serious. I felt stupid getting worked up over homework marks last year and the 2 years before that. T.T

To get homework marks as much as you can without getting heated up is better. xD

Gotta jet. Have not done any homework for today at all. Busy uploading and practising. From about 2PM onwards until 5:48PM. @.@ This is madness (sparta!)

Take care and have fun~!^^
