I'm Hurting Myself...whats the point?
what am i trying to do??whats hurting me?? why am i doing all these to myself??is it necessary for me to inflict all those pain to myself and hurt myself so much?? what am i trying to avoid??what am i trying to deny??
before this..i can tell you that i'm very much a troubled young adult...with all the problems and stuff pouring down on her like there's no ending to it...i swear...there's no ending to it...its been weeks since i could stop right in track and breathe real deep, real hard....times are hard...especially when ur in ur final year...assignment pilling up high and in a blink of an eye..its not funny at all...and mind you..these assignments of mine are not those easy finger clicking easy kinda assignment....i've got this stack of articles to read about on futurism...and after days of reading it...i just couldnt understand well what the heck its trying to talk about...seriously..and best part of all..i'll need to write a short essay and a long one base on this topic....how great u tell me...and its gonna be graded as the finals of this subject...so i'm actually risking my own result....dont tell me or ask me why i choose this topic...coz its not my first choice...its not up to me to choose i'm telling you...
i just managed to finish up the conducting skills report based on the class which i was absent...coz i was sick last week....and i gotta write a report base on a class that i never attend...how ironic...so to be really honest..i'd watched the clips of the class..but i couldnt hear a single word..so i just crapped about it...and hope that my lecturer doesnt stumble upon my blog....
tried to practise my piano earlier on...but i just couldnt get the touch of it...no idea how to play it...gosh i HATE Mozart...i tried searching for the mozart sonata on Youtube..hoping that i can see someone else plays it and at least try to capture the idea behind this piece..but guess what...there's only 1st movement available...and among the 3 movements, i understand the 1st one most..so i need the 2nd and 3rd movements..but there arent any!!!!...jury's in less than 2 weeks time...and my playing is all over the place...my Chopin Fantasy Impromtu is in a huge mess...running notes..my arms are not strong enough...my fingers are weak...my playing is totally all over the place...one word...MESSY to describe the pieces imma going to play for jury..so i'm very worried bout it right now..i wanna do well for my Jury....
vocal exams in june...i'm too stressed to be thinking bout it right now...i was trying to figure out solutions for my problems earlier on when i was doing my laundry...if i get to choose..i wanna stop my vocal lessons for some time...but i've already paid up the exam fees..and there's no turning back...another solution is to bail out on accompaniment job for someone..i'm really having problems coping...if i'm gonna be real broke or not having extra pocket money..let it be then...i'm too stressed right now to think of other ppl's problems..but this i still gotta discuss with my vocal teacher 2mr...ever since i fell sick last week...i tried to sing..but i couldnt sing well...and now that i'm much much better..almost fully recovered..i practise abit.but i'm not sure whether my techniques are right or wrong...just hope that i got them right...and i was thinking of stopping Dithyrambic for a month...to focus on my exams and to take a short break...its not final yet...still thinking bout it...i look like a huge coward for backing out from all my problems, or backing out from all possible ways...i have no choice but to do so..coz what i'm going thru right now..its beyond words could explain or describe....i used to settle problems one at a time...but now..it just wont work anymore....everything come crashing down upon me...i'm suffocating..i'm dying..
this are only the problems that could be settle right now right in this semester...how bout next sem???i need to find a pianist for my piano concerto next sem...die...everyone's so busy with exams and studies...who can help me?
i tried forcing myself to cry...tried to let loose...tears did not came out...i'm already close to the brink of running away from reality..the thought of doing something really stupid came into my mind...i'm very weak...to even think about it...i knew it well..that running away is not a solution to problems..it never did...but why did i even dare to think about it??i guess it showed how desperate i am...desperately grasping for a string that i held my life onto, desperately grasping for air in a vacuum...
if it wasnt for you daniel....i think i'll still be very troubled right now....thank you for spending time trying to dig out my real problems beneath this all...all though til now i still dunno what are the pain that i'm self inflicting on...you were right...i've been hurting myself lately...thanks for making me see it finally...coz i couldnt figure it out anyways...u've seen me emo countless of times...thanks for being there for me...although i'm still gonna bother you much every now and then...
i can see that i'm still gonna keep on hurting myself every now and then...til the day that wounds heal entirely and became scars...but now...those are half bleeding half healing wounds...and as if they were casted spells where they couldnt heal entirely...becoz when they try to....the wounds will automatically cut open by itself and fresh blood come gushing out like fresh wounds...
all i can do right now is to be really strong...although its never enough..it never did...and pray hard, hoping that God will cut me some slacks in everything i do....how much is enough??or there's no such word exist in ur dictionary?
Self Inflicted Pain.....foolish you say??? a way out i say....

Unwell
just in case ur wondering what am i up to lately...well...lots of practises for the upcoming choral production which will be held in KLPac this weekend..everything got extremely busy since last weekend...i've got to borrow eddy's car as he was away to singapore...so saturday i drove ling and thiery down to KL (my very 1st time driving there)..went to get some concert use stuff...spend lots of money there...sigh...rushed back on time to have dinner and picked up others for extra choir practise..sunday...choir practise again....both practise ended rather late at nite...by the time we got home it was 1 something in the morning..
monday...morning class..after class..i stayed home all day rushing my AMus paper..really hate myself for not doing it earlier..managed to steal some time to take a rest...the reason i needed to RUSH my assignment was becoz me and my frens planned to attend the MDG party held in MIST club in Bangsar later that night...and yes we went...first time been to such events...and thanks to lala and Nuffnang for granting her the passes..and which allowed us to get it...after the event...came back for a short and quick yamcha session as i was hungry...after makan rushed back home to finish up the remaining of my paper...and guess what..i've spend the whole night worrying bout petty stuff...issues like my AMus paper, white shirt for concert, some money issues...and i didnt get to sleep the whole night...great...
tuesday...busy as usual...running here and there in uni to outside shops to get my paper printed and stuff...yesterday was really crazy..i've actually skipped my conducting class coz i needed time to rest and to memorize some of the choir pieces...in the end...just when i almost slept, eddy called to asked me go down to take his car...lol...speaking of good and right timing..but well...i still managed to pull myself thru last nite's 5 hours of choir practise...standing and singing and all...damn tired but not gonna complain too much..coz this is what i choose...this is what i want...by the time we left MIA, it was about 2 something in the morning...went over to SS2 Murni for "early breakfast"...damn hungry lo...been starving throughout the entire practise..all i had before going to the practise was a red bean bun..lol..i'd be damn greatful for not having gastric...lol..
came home around 3 something..by the time i was ready to hit the sacks..it was already 4 something...already planned to skip theory class this morning as i really need to catch up with my sleep..was damn worried that i cant sleep again last nite..but luckily i did...rui called around 1.30pm..asked if are we going for choir in uni coz normally she send us there...told her i planned to skip again coz i'm really tired...prefered to stayed home to practise my piano and to do laudndry (which is pilling up)...tried to sleep back again..but stomach upset...rushed to toilet...guess the food i had early this morning wasnt that clean afterall...but luckily nothing too serious...only went to toilet twice..lol...still kinda tired right now..played piano for abit..but couldnt seems to get the touch of it...and i'm hungry right now..but lazy to cook up something...lol..oh i still need to look up for some details for my AMus presentation....die die die....T______T later going to subang with rui...needed to go look for a white shirt...sigh..hopefully can find one thats as white as snow...
rehersals 2mr..and the show is starting this friday...hopefully everything will go smoothly for us all...
til then....gonna update next week
loves to all...

Why So Emotional...
Doing things and rushing assignment at a last minute basis is what Clar do best...
ahh finally i'm back on track once again..thats feels good...rushing assignment at a very last minute manner...and things turns out to be kinda good...i'm greatful...=)
last few days was hell of a time...so emotional that its not funny at all...depressed...mentally exhausted...just a thought that i really wanna give up on everything last nite...the moment i see the stacks of articles and those never ending problems..i just wanna break down and cry..and wish there's someone there to help me out with all of it...sometimes i find it really hard to handle everything by myself..alone..but then....who am i kidding...gotta settle everything by myself...i'm an adult...so settle everything using the adult way....
cross my fingers tightly and closely...hoping that everything will go smoothly...
taking one small lil step at a time...and there's still a long looooonnnnnnnnnngggggggggg way to reach til the top....
life..........sigh...
