Winter Break

I'm done with the semester! Woohoo!! Last night was my last presentation (concert). I had to present a piece which I composed using some sound samples in Pro Tools. It was so 'cut and paste'. I was not proud of it. But considering this is my first attempt composing anything like this, I gotta give myself some credit. The surround system in the theatre definitely made it sound way better. Overall, it was quite a pleasant experience. Bottom line, my professor liked it. So hopefully I'll get good result :)

After the concert, my classmate and I went for a drink. I didn't wanna go at first because hanging out with a bunch of Mat Sallehs always makes me feel awkward. First, it's because I have this thought of them laughing at me whenever I order a Coke instead of some fancy cocktail at a bar. Second, I don't really update myself with what's going on with the world right now. So, I'm gonna be damn clueless if they're talking about the hottest band right now, or how the bad economy affects everyone's life, or what's the best microphones or headphones on the market, or who likes to kiss the professor's ass, yada yada yada...But, after doing some thinking, I decided to go just to see how it goes...As it turned out, I did feel uneasy and was clinging by my roommate's side throughout the night, AND went back home early. Whatever...

I am now in the middle of boredom. Reading random blogs. Listening to my boring playlist over and over again. Doing some online window shopping, wishing that I have extra cash to get some fancy outfits. I have this urge of trying out new style and listening to some new stuff, but I don't know where to begin. I'm so 'jelak' with my wardrobe and playlist now.

Speaking of music, I realized that my musical taste is so 'hampeh'. It's embarrassing to admit that I'm a musician when the only genres of music that I listen to are the ones on Hot FM and Fly FM. How pathetic is that??!! And when I come across other people's playlist I get so jealous because the songs that they listen to are so cool, so edgy, so modern, and such! Whenever I hang out with my close friends, every time they talk about their favorite bands or who's performing in town, I get so clueless. Sigh...I have not been able to catch any concerts here because most of the artists that are performing are not in my fave list. I wanted to catch John Mayer's performing last summer but it was all the way in Long Island, so I end up not going..Hmphh..

Can't wait for my trip to LA in January. Yeay! In the meantime, I'm hoping to spend some time with my girls, go skiing/snowboarding, catch some gigs, dance rehearsals, and read some stuff for my thesis. But all also need MONEY laa...haih.....
