Ever felt the itching sore of an opportunity forgone? Well it sucks. hahaha...one does loathe to live with such a regrettable incident.
Colonel Colburn is coming tomorrow with the principal players, and my West Side Story is still nowhere near the standard. Sure I've got few notes to play, so why can't I perfect them yet? Not enough practice perhaps...so what have I been doing for the past month, exactly, if I haven't been practicing? hmmm...
I've been following the wrong diet, for goodness sake. I should have been taking more protein but here I am chugging down carbos like there's no tomorrow. Now here's the problem. How am I supposed to get hold of a continuous, enriching source of protein...rice is so much more readily available but they're carbos. What some of my friends said was that if I take too much carbo I'll be gaining 'fat mass' instead of 'muscle mass', which is the result of protein intake. God no I don't want to start having a belly and stuff...shall see what I can do.
Something I did today reminded me of band life back in TPJC. Joachim and I were eating calbee hot and spicy potato chips at the back while the band was tuning! We found them in a carton on the percussion riser...apparently a part of the NDP goodies we received a few months ago. I think we had a total of 4 packets today, just between the two of us. haha. A few others soon realized what they were missing and soon the carton started becoming emptier and emptier. I remember back in TPJC when Dr.Lee was tuning the band or spending countless hours working on the band's intonation, leaving the percussionists trapped in the room but free of duty...we used to eat, play cards or watch movies on my friend's ipod. yes. We had time to watch movies.
I just realized something. All this time I've been blogging and I don't remember ever having mentioned anything funny or even remotely amusing. hahaha...I'm starting to think this blog is an outlet for me to dump the days' seriousness and smile-less encounters. It didn't use to be this way, did it? Maybe that's the reason why I don't think many people come here anymore. haha.. tsk, what can I do? I'm tense, serious and cold.
ah...an opportunity forgone...now I must wait.
