Ah, after NTU Hall 11, here comes the inevitable Christmas Party - Raffles Hall, and music camp from GENUS. Well, to add into the list of worries, I am struck with a flu today.

Not a very promising start. Something must be wrong.

Yeah, I could say that there's a million wrong there. First, because I thought I would only be involved in music camp, I thought I should just apply for only one week. Now, when I come to think of it, if there's any possibility of me being involved in so many things in 2 weeks, I would have book the room the entire holiday. No need to spend the money staying at Grandma's house, and spend unnecessary money on transport.

Things had not been right, I know.

The worst part is about the event. I am more afraid about the performance than my time management. I am only first year, and I know my standard is still reaching bare minimum comparing to others in either my hall Band, Unplugged or GENUS. The worst part is that, I have little faith in my performance because it is true, no lie. I just started Band, and I am expected to play for JamX, a competition outside NUS. Bass man, of course I am excited by the whole thing. If I only participate in Band, I may perhaps be able to do it. But, with the addition of GENUS as Prime guitarist - the role which demands a lot of attention, because we are playing chords most of the time, and also Unplugged, which sometimes the flow has to be correct, meaning the collaboration between vocalist and string instrument players had to be reaching the best performance, hence demanding a certain degree of attention, caused me to rethink my decision last time when I started to join all these - to improve my skills.

One thing for sure - next year, I won't be so crazy as to take all culture groups as one. If I want, just take one, and I have decided about that. Meanwhile, about GENUS, I am still not sure whether should I quit or not. If I am going to play Bass for Band, I have to sacrifice certain things. For example, I cannot grow nails. Growing nails is essential for GENUS, and without nails, the sound played would be mellow, an effect our conductor doesn't want.

Stuck in a middle? You bet, yeah.

Well. what to do, since I am free only after 22nd. But that doesn't confirm that I would be entirely free to do what I want. I still have JamX coming soon, and not forgetting the concert for GENUS and also Rhazmatazz for Raffles. Even after finishing this, I would doubt that my participation in Raffles Experience would be negligible. I want to do some aux... oh, and also I have to do one more aux for my staying in Raffles for next year if I want. The list would go on, but I don't think I want to elaborate on that. Too tired to think about all these.
