Just a random update I guess...just finished a good session of practicing with Uncle Felix (Mendelssohn). I finally realize that I actually have the technical skill to play this, but I've got to slowly build the patience to stay with piece all the way through. It demands a lot, and I just have to give everything I have.
In other news, I decided to give Neil Gaiman's books a try today. I bought a book called "Fragile Things", which is a collection of short stories compiled by him, a lot of which are award winners. I've only read the intro so far, but it looks good.
Work has been hell. All our leave and off has been blocked off between December 1st and January 17th because we have both an internal AND external audit to attend to in that time frame...which has led to my boss transforming into Legolas and us all having very short fuses. In the words of "Hokkien peng" from Mr Brown, "Wa lao eh...teo kan liao. Lim bei tapai teo eh".
So that's life at the moment. I'm reading "Fragile Things", learning "Violin Concerto in E Minor" by Mendelssohn, writing a book tentatively titled "Sword Symphony", going to register for driving soon, having multiple migraines at the same time at work, and wishing yet not wishing September 07 was here already.
