I am Sof.

Downtown frequency increased, homeworking frequency decreased. I think the Chinese saying “if you don’t use your brain, your brain will be rusted” is true, because I do feel as if my brains are concreted, and has a smooth surface too. I also haven’t practised piano for 3 days, while thinking that I should deserve some days of relaxation from incessant preparation for performances, competitions, etc. for years now, I still feel really bad.

I encountered 3 or 4 dogs on the subway the other day while heading downtown, they scared the hell out of me - man, why do they have to appear on the same day? I also got the Phantom DVD 2 disc special version this week, just watched it again. Ooooh, so good.

Right now I am watching (listening to, more like) the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition online while typing this entry. Just watched Grace Fong from USA, I hope she gets into the final round beause I wanna listen to her Mozart No.23 and Rach III. One of the competitors will be playing Chopin’s complete piano scherzi in the Final Recital round, so crazy. Chen Sa’s performance is tomorrow, at 1pm I believe. I think I’ll miss it because of work.

Now I don’t have much work to do. English seminar and philosophy seminar are all finished, essays are handed in, all I need to worry about is calculus tests and art summative. Banquet on Friday, formal in 3 weeks. I feel like I’m becoming a party animal.

I should pick up my diary-writing habit again, it’ll help me to consume some thoughts.
