Back to Square One

A necklace from cher.....so thoughtful of her :)


Its been a tiring day....work is still as bad. Its getting stressful and I am trying my best to cope with it. I realise that my boss has a habit of pushing every single task to us, even the simplest thing such as following up on an email where she can get the information herself. sigh....my colleagues are all fed up with her. I'm starting to have that feeling again.....that this might not be the best place to work in....


I broke my the sole on my heels this morning on the train and went to get it mended during lunch. Cost me $8 just to replace a new sole on each heels....so expensive! But I didn't have a choice as my heels were unstable to walk in.

I also worked a bit late today. Trying to rush out the press releases and I want to send them out on monday.

Today's band practice was ok. Jo finally came for practice and I let him play all the important parts and solo for el camino real. Although I would very much like to play the parts myself, i learnt to let it go and let someone else who is better than me to play. I think its time to realise that I should let the better player take the part and not just always trying to prove to other people that i am a good player. Its disappointing but I have to learn to step back. Priority is to perform a good concert and not about me playing a solo or anything. But if the situation arise whereby I have to step in, I will step up and play the important parts and solo. Hopefully I can go back to the peak form that i was at during the national band competition back then. After practice, we decided that Jo take el camino real and i take the important parts for second suite. Time to buck up for concert... L and MS have been hardowrking lately and I can see it. They just need time to pick up and lead the section.

After practice, went for supper with my symphonian gang and took the last train home. Cher started talking excitedly about the cd she purchased today. hearing my current symphonians who are still in school talking about daily school life felt nostalgic to me. Made me think about the time when symphonia just started...that was during year 2. haha.....those were the days....

Its been a year since the last concert.....how time flies....

20 days to Ay Caramba....its crunch time!!
