Exposition

Just watched a Chinese movie in the living room while waiting for my cousin to finish his game . Then i sent Dedric the re-arrangement of the Suona solo that he requested . WeiHong is going to play it ... and ive already got it almost half done . Then , JinShiYi wants to see the arrangement also . Dedric said that he might like it ... well , im not very sure about that .

I woke up late today . And nowadays , my waking up time is around 10am , unlike the past when it used to be around 12pm . Maybe its because of the time i wake up everyday ... so im used to it already , great . I woke up , touched up on the StringQuartet i composed , and now its done . Then played some silly games ... then went to school around 5pm . Samuel was at some workshop , so he wasnt free . YongRui was outside ... and so , SiHan was the only one available . He came down to school after his orchestral practice . So , i stayed in school , played games , arranged the Suona piece and played some Piano . Then i asked Sebestian out for dinner ... then we took a bus home .

Today was a short day , nothing much happened . Usually within in an hour , many things would have gone wrong . But today , everything just went like ... sluggish . Nothing went wrong , nothing went on . My ulcer is healing ... and now it feels better .

Called Danial out , but he wasnt free . Guess its the wrong time ... well , wonder when i will be free again to go out . Next Friday is the concert , and i think many people are gonna attend , but not so much from NAFA . Im trying to reach out to those people ive met in the MOE camps , maybe they can help sell some tickets too . Ive already asked YeePeng , the YangQin girl , and Alvin , the Pipa guy , not the one in CSCO , and ive asked Harry too . Andy helping me ask the access-course people ... Harry asked me to change my display picture , another one ... how many already ?

Anyway , forget about CSCO . Its not that ive not done anything for the orchestra . Im too busy with my own , i can only hope myself to finish my own duties . Well , recieved many mails . I think Mike is very pissed with the members , because none of them seem to have done anything . Let me think ... what have i done ... ? Ive sent mails , tried to chase for money , which cannot be done by myself alone . Ive also ... arranged scores for CSCO ... and made deals with outside performances . Managing a group of unmanagable people , is tough enough , because people dun like to co-operate with me . Maybe MiYan should talk to them , because im a pain in the ass . Well , replied the mail , and asked the Pipa group already ... still some couldnt give me a fixed answer .

Just like the Chinese movie i just watched in the living room ... its something like ur modern Chinese martial art films . Well , who enjoys this kinda movies ? Like the latest one by Jet , the one and only last one . Yes , who enjoyed it ? I guess many did ... Chinese music is progressing like the Chinese films . See how the inserted Western and dramatic elements into its films ? Now , try and recall ... those really old martial art films . Remember them ? Are they nice ? Well , some are ... and some arent . Like Chinese music , it has a drastic and big difference . So , Chinese music has also developed into something more Westernised . It has both elements , and it has its own Eastern elements inside . Thus , Chinese music isnt what uve heard in NAFA ... i think the big and wide perspective of Chinese music ... has been narrowed into this shallow thinking , thanks to the Chinese ensemble . It plays this kinda old pieces ... which made the already bad impression of Chinese music in the people's mind worst . Well , i kept saying this ... because the truth is there , people still think that Chinese music is like this and that . Well , its not , and thats the reason why ... i chose Chinese music and not Western . Chinese can be cool too , thats all ... folks .

Come out of the well , or start digging deeper for ur grave . Its time to go under the sun and recieve some burning ... because , hiding in the well wont help .

Ive said enough , and ive spoke the truth . Its time for me to know ... that what i preached was what i really meant . Im going to go read up on all my previous posts ... to recapitulate on what ive done and said before .

Today's post is an exposition , its an account that sets forth the meaning or intent of my discourse . The development will come ... and thus the recapitulation . The posts in between are all the different episodes which gives space to development ... Or maybe its already the recapitulation , because ive repeated this dunno how many times already . Or maybe ... ive not yet even modulated anywhere ... because the first subject , which is this , has not even been knocked into the senses of the readers . Well , hit it hard , and it'll bite .
