New Year Resolutions

1. Improve piano-playing 150%
2. Purge room
3. Watch as much anime as possible
4. Be nicer to everyone
5. Accomplish all the above while getting really good grades somehow
6. Be less lazy



...Hence, my reason for posting. I've spent the past few months doing a lot of soul-searching. Ok, fine, most of the time I was panicking, trying to figure out a way to get all my homework done before going off on holiday and making sure the people in my assignment group didn't either get too ahead with the project or remain completely clueless (and hence unproductive!!!)



Holiday was pretty fun, I actually got to see real snow falling out of the sky. Made a snowman with bros and parents, it was the tallest one in the field. In the end it looked like a snowdevil, since it had the angry eyes and little pinecone horns. Too bad its head and abdomen rolled off later that day. Its thorax survived the snowman-killing, though, so yay?



Also brushed up on Texas Holdem skills with cousins. We wanted to go see how people really played in the casino (which was next to the lobby) but they chased us underaged people away :( We managed to get some sweets, so we gambled with that. Luck was really good, as I managed to clean bro and cousin out of tictacs and gum :D



Other than the gambling, and the Mariokart tournaments (the 1st place position kept alternating) I didn't do much. Everyone was skiing except me because I am a paranoid geek who has been recently introduced the concept of Murphy's Law.



Skiing => Potential injuries
Injuries => Fracture of body parts
Body parts => Hands
Hands = Piano playing
Hands = no hand-related activity
Hands + Kath = Happy Kath
Hands + Kath = A damn unhappy (and possibly psychotic) Kath



Be grateful, I sacrificed my happiness that the world might be a better place.


Tomorrow will rally my assignment group members to take on the big bad Assignmentasaurus. I'm getting a bit sick of the song, after working on it for such a long time. It's has a very very wide variety of instruments, it's really, really emo, and really really mixolydian. Weird how that scale has been creeping into my random playing time nowadays. Guess my fingers got a bit tired of aeolian.



Right now the point of my life is somehow surviving my ACTS assignment, which consists of a presentation (PUBLIC SPEAKING OH NOES!!!!!), ACTS test, REMT and MIDI assignments, and my deteriorating eyesight to get to CNY and buy Zelda. Good luck contacting me in the holidays once I get it 8D
