Hihi, been a while. doing this someone told me too, haha

A little update to my life now, finished my term and now is hols, have about 3 successful day of wasteful loathing and used the time to give my room a makeover, catch up with Bleach, Keikaishi, and Gundam 00, PLaying guitar, and getting the usual scolding and grumbling from the old lady next door.

Actually, I am pretty fine, just that sometimes i get to involved with other people's problems and then it affects me as well. Like actually i am pretty fine being single and all, but almost every male friend of mine somehow caught the wave of GF issues suddenly. I guess the irony is that when you are single you got to help those in battle. But Bros, dun give in, I mean GIVE UP! God have prepared the one for you and one day you will get that dodgy little lass!

Been talking to my music teacher lately, receiving advices like dun throw away your day job, get stable income, the moneys there, the stuck up musicians are there to help ( flinched ) and blah blah, cant help thinking ...

Is there a future for musicians in Singapore? Do you really have to have a certain status or a 5 digit fan base to secure a future? My teacher is one of the more reputable bassist in Singapore, and he's kinda struggling to pay his bills though he does not talk about it... The best Electric guitarist in Singapore, whom house i visited, does not reflect the glory he attained from the music scene.

So how does one secure his future? I asked. He answered " Teaching ". The passing on of knowledge in the hope of securing the future, not ours but to the future of Singapore. Who knows when there might be a blooming guitarist like Paul Gilbert, somewhere in our midst, lurking in some unsuspecting mother's womb?

Another bugging problem was that i keep regretting starting music late. Darn, Even Warren buffet bought his first share at 15. Thats nuts if you ask me, But I guess he had it coming. But i was youtubing to chk up on one of my favourite rock guitarist, slash of GNR and velvet revolver, and In one interview he said he started at 15. I guess anythings possible. I mean Beethoven started at 20, and he was rumored as not talented. but look where his hardwork brought him. I think he would not have guessed that even decades down the road, his legacy is still being played to lude the world in symphony and song.

Sigh, music is such a wondrous and mysterious being, Why being, cos its always evolving and when you think you have solved its prevailing mysteries and it will unexpectedly turn around, leave you again awestruck and then throw you back to square one again. Hurray to all musicians who think they have unraveled everything ya?

kk I gotta go. I hope that you guys work hard and do the best ya can. Who knows, 40 years down the road someone will be benefiting from your contribution that formed their history.
