27/11/2020

 It's Flyday! Finally, I've survived till the weekend. I was craving alcohol these few days and I only allow myself to drink during weekends.

I asked my housemate to join me but she said I'm gonna drive tomorrow so if I drink too much will be too dangerous. Anyhow, without her knowledge, I secretly got myself a BIG can of beer. hehe

The weather tonight is superb. It is windy now, sitting on the sofa, with Harry Potter music, the chill wind and a BIG can of beer. What a life.

I had my conducting lesson with Mr Lee today, and I asked whether how far I am in order to achieve my goal, and he said what he is preparing me right now is the master program, and he suggested me to go East Europe for conducting, more opportunity, cheaper. And I am really looking forward to my future.

I love having deep conversations with people, it makes me feel connected. Or else, I prefer to be alone. My mind is full of fantasies and imagination. I love it when my mind is telling me stories. I can spend the whole afternoon, staring at the ceiling and just let my mind race like hell. Untell stories and feelings are too overwhelm and I also need to separate into a few characters and talk to myself, not to mention especially when I am with good music.

After the breakup, I realize life is too short to care about shits. 


Sitting here with good music, good beer, and a nice environment. 100%.

I was talking to Eva that my emotions are so unpredictable every day, I feel touched when I get to know good music and this happens literally every day. And she was like why you're so rich in emotions. And I love being ME! Good night.

Breakup

 Hello everyone who is still reading my blog. Millions of thank you. I always treat here as my secret place, when I got no one to speak to or I want to have some conversation with myself I would love to post here. It's definitely not safe haha but I would just want to record my life in words. 


16/10/2020

It had been few days since we were having the cold war, we did not talk to each other because I remembered I wanted him to spend more time with me and he said he was tired of telling his stuff. Therefore, I decided to shut up since there was no conclusion for the argument. We did not talk to each other since Monday 12/10/2020, I had so many things to tell him, but when I saw him, treating me like I'm transparent, I knew it wasn't good timing. And I hoped that he would wait in front of the bathroom so he would apologize to me and tell me: Can you smile? I miss your laughter because I remember he told me how much he loved my laughter, that was my signature. But every time I put so high hope on it, it crushed me even harder. I did not cry for that few days, letting myself settle down but I have never expected these few days would be our last few days to be together. The process was difficult, whenever I thought of it, my heart ached. I loved him so it was hurtful to see the person you loved treated you in such a way.

On Friday 16/10/2020, we talked about this issue, and he said he was tired, tired of sharing his stuff with me, saying that I could never understand his jobs, his stuff. We have been fucking 2.5 years and the person who slept with you every night told you that you could never understand his job. What the fuck? Therefore we came to a mutual agreement to break up. No doubt, I was crying like hell and I definitely knew my eyes would look like walnut the next day. I was having neck and back pain that night, woke up and applied the cream by myself and massaged it. Tears couldn't stop, it was too hurtful to think of what to do later. He just slept there when I was suffering emotionally and physically. The memories of ours were like playback, every single memory was flashing in my mind and I knew I could not do anything to fix on this relationship anymore, it was time to let go. "Letting go" has always been the hardest issue for me, I can't but I have to. 






17/10/2020

I contacted Wei Pheng and Kee Xin, asking for a place to stay temporary. And I decided to stay at Kee Xin's place. I woke up with my eyes swelled like walnut, expected. My mind was blank, how much I wished that it was just a dream, we were still cool the next day. But nope, it was real and happening. I woke up, talking to Poh Ai about this, cried like hell. Around 11am, I showered and started to pack. When I was packing, I could not hold my tears, they were like the water pipe, gushing out from my eyes. Before I left, he hugged me and said good luck. Ain't this ironic? Haha. When I settled down there, I rested and cried again. Basically, my mind was blank and I kept crying that few days la. Like trying to fit into a new place was so hard for me at that time, and I practiced my flute to keep me occupied. His sister called me too, checking on me and asking what happened to both of us, whether I still wanted to go back.




18/10/2020

I received a lot of messages and love from my friends and sis. They checked on me from time to time, and I could not be more appreciative of this. And so fortunate that I have Kee Xin keep me accompanied. They asked whether had I eaten, how was I, did I feel better, what did I need? And this fella, Saw Poh Ai kept asking me whether I want any dessert? Can't remember which day, but Soo Yong called me too, we talked about my plans with him, things that we had not accomplished. 






That night I decided to call my mom because I didn't want to worry her. We talked and I cried, she said she was so worried about me and she wished she could be here with me right now. But after talking I felt worse, but I know it's okay because I was having heartbreaking moments. I needed time to heal. 






19/10/2020

On the fourth day of the breakup, I went back to Ss2 to grab my things. I have never thought the journey of going back "home", the place I used to call it, was so hard. I did not cry, but the feeling was complicated. Fortunately, I met with few people and after talking to them, I wasn't feeling that bad anymore. I talked to my housemate, Ellie and knowing that the three of us in this unit were just broke up, as well as Ellie's housemate! And this made me feel better HAHAHA







20/10/2020

The fifth day of the breakup. Finally, there was a smile on my face. (You might get confused with the date, so do I)





21/10/2020

I had dreams about him few times. In the dreams, I kept asking whether did he still love me? But he walked away all the time without answering me. I thought I should let you go. 






22/10/2020

One week after the breakup and I could see myself healing. I looked great.






Shout out to every girl out there!

Never ever escape from the reality, face it with courage! You are more than you think. The reason why I healed and reacted out of my expectation is I enjoyed every moment, regardless of up or down. I truly experience every single feeling and emotion that my heart and mind want to tell me. It was really good when you are opened up to your own, and be honest to your heart. You're a gem, don't let others treat you like trash. Eat study sleep. Do what you're supposed to and take a break if you need to. 

I love me, and I am spending more time with myself, not begging someone to spend time on me, if they want to, they will. I felt like a beggar when I was asking him, not to play the game but talked to me. 

It's okay, I am tired of those shit and I am so ready to move on, looking forward to the next chapter of my life. xoxo

 Good morning World, there's water shortage again since yesterday. And this is really annoying.

It's mid sem break this week, and I'm progressing well! I listed down all the things I need to do and I follow it well hehehe.

These few days were excellent. I am happy, everything is following my plan and it goes pretty well. My time, my work and stuff. 

Gotta off to work, Good day everyone!

12/11/2020

Before the end of the day, I am sitting on the sofa, listening to Christmas songs with the fire crackling sound, communicating to myself. I feel so good.

It is such a happy day, I finished conducting a lesson with Mr. Robert, and he said I improved so much since the first time he saw me (during the workshop held by Mr. Eric). He asked if I am aware of my own progress, I said yes, a bit. But he said: not just a bit. It's a huge step. We work together for around 3 months, and I never imagine I can improve by leaps and bounce in such a short period. 

The second thing is, I finally can move on to another movement of Holst's first suite. He asked me to give a kiss to the first movement because I am saying goodbye to it now, although I need to revisit it sometimes. HAHA.

Everyone is saying 2020 is such a bad year. To apply the knowledge I've just learned from the Chinese Popular Culture course when something bad is happening, there'll be a good thing as well, that's why Yin and Yang are here. They are here to balance out the universe.

To sum up, all the good things happen in this year, 2020, I started learning Hiragana in March due to MCO lockdown, I started to meditate, start teaching private students, I met wonderful kids from all over the world like Korean, Japan, Dubai, Kuwait, Taiwan, and China, not to mention our local students. From ages 3 to 20, I learned so much from each of them and couldn't be more blessed to be trusted by the parents and able to share my knowledge and love with them. Next, I got to be a recitalist (which is one of my goals), meaning I am able to have my graduation recital. Due to the diseases, I started to conduct virtual violin lessons and thank all the international students, I have the opportunity to speak English and that really helps a lot, I improved a lot! Then, the happiest and blessed in 2020, I was chosen by Mr. Robert Ambrose to be his student, and I met new friends Ellie from the USA. I got no words to describe how grateful I am, but I really do. Conducting has always been my passion and in 2020, I am one step closer to my dream. 

In the last 50 days of 2020, I would like to challenge myself that:

1. Love me more, invest in myself.

2. Read more books.

3. Practice.

4. Earn more money.


It's 12.01 now, hello Friday. I wish all of you to stay healthily, happily, and peacefully. xoxo.

Sensitive = Passion?

 I do admit I am such a sensitive person. Any slight changes in the mood, tone, facial expression, you name it; I can sense it.

I always receive comments like: Why are you so sensitive? // You're overreacting. // You shouldn't be having so many emotions. 

And I always hate myself for being so sensitive or you may call it as emotional. Society uses the term 'Emotional' as a negative word. Being emotional is not good, you should have flat emotions, not so many ups and downs.

I tried to change myself, numb my senses. But I can't. This makes me depressed. I always show my feelings through my expressions. People say I can be read easily, which is not good. I understand, but just a few minutes ago, I went through an IG story post from Maggy, she was reading the book: The Gifts of Imperfections by Brene Brown, the quote caught my attention: 

We cannot selectively numb emotions. When we numb the painful emotions, we also numb the positive emotions. 

You know what, this quote is so beautifully written. I always hate my gift, for being a sensitive person. But at the same time, I am a person who is so rich in different emotions! And that's who I am, innit?

I can feel what people can't, I can describe and I enjoy all the emotions I have. Isn't it so amazing?

I am passionate about what ahead of me, and I am so passionate about my life, I can't wait to reach the next stage of my life and at the same time, I am enjoying my life right now. 

I am so blessed to be given this wonderful superpower, being extra caring about others' feelings and if I use it wisely, I can make more friends, I can share, and be a wonderful listener.

I am so into self-love recently, I love myself, still accepting who I am. But, I am genuinely happy. I have the freedom to wake up at any time, choose what to eat, choose what to wear, my family and friends love me and so do I, I am still learning, still playing the violin and my conducting. What else I can complain about in my life?


Dear Me, 

I've let you suffered for some time, I'm sorry, and I promise I won't in the future. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I love you, myself.
