Duet. Trio. i played violin together with two friends. We played different parts different notes, and the sound of our violins combined harmoniously, just nice. Sometimes shrill, sometimes sweet, many times we made mistakes too, the sound(or noise?) we produced rang through my house and the street. =P Nobody complained us. We're not proffesional of course. It's just a mere interest in violin. i played till my finger tips went red and purple like little meat balls. And the side of my neck hurts a bit till now. But i'm sure that you'd like some pieces we played =) such as Silent Night, Jingle Bell, and all that-- all for christmas. My christmas present for you!

i came across this line: Life is an act of balancing, just take a break and smell the roses along the road.

i'm smelling the scents of the flowers. Not only roses. i even have enough time to take pictures of the flowers =) i love holidays. Holidays do me good. But, you ever feel that sometimes holiday can make you feel old too? You rest, and rest, and rest during holidays. You feel that you're storing energy while resting. Then you get bored. But you're still resting. And you feel that you're not even as energetic as before. Feel that you are old. That's what i feel sometimes...not all the time, though. i'm still enjoying my holiday. The really slow pace of life. Like Tai Chi. Yet...i think i'm ready for another hustle and bustle and huff and puff for a busy sem at Shah Alam. The malay sacred place. i think i'm ready for the tonnes of pressure of life there. And i do miss the fun there. With some friends. Being close. Without the control of parents ;P Well it's just less than two weeks to go. i'm hungrily greedily absorbing the love from my family. i will miss them, for sure, after two weeks.

Hope that i'm strong now. Really strong enough to be away from home again.
