Lesson no. 2--- be satisfied and be appreciative
haha! actually wanted to blog about time management and assumptions, but i guess this topic is easier since i am satisfied. haha!
I had this dream ever since i watched this show that depict a couple going for a concert. And i mean literary orchestra that kind, classical music that kind... That one day, the man i love would treat me to one and together we will watch the orchestra play beautiful music together and chat about our favourite music genre, chuckle over things that are related to music...and perhaps leaning towards the classical side, etc..
Yes, until now, there hasnt been any movie-like happiness happening to me yet. All those traits of a dream guy are oh-so high class that sometimes, i feel so tired trying to be in their world. I am hunger to be in that kind of category becos only that, i feel i'm secured...becos what i want for my future is financially secured and kids growing up well.
yes, my dream life would be to associate with the high class people, yet humble and friendly. Perhaps have a couple of kids that will grow up like their father, if not....be musically inclined or exceptionally good looking that allows them to get into the company of many rich associates.
haha!! Perhaps, it's time to pop that bubble because i myself is not learning any music at all, not musically inclined, not artistic, not analytical, not pretty, not rich*, rough.. etc..
oh, i dun have that kind of air of nobility, or what you call them.. erm.. refined looks...
so, i've decided to be satisfied over things that dun come easy. that in another words, be appreciative of many things that come and go. Like now...
Ive learnt the imptance of money. i would want to find a job asap so i can earn and keep..and perhaps buy something i like..or something that has value and when resell it, the value doubles or triples the original price. yes, when i have the money, i'll invest in hmmm, watches?? well.. i still dunno yet.. but i definitely would need to find out more. :D
and above was inspired by Ben. i dunno why but i find him very inspiring.. he's principles, his life, his viewpoint... ah..no, dun even think that he's my bf- boyfriend. he's one of my best friend i guess...
like today, or a few days ago, he asked if i want to go watch Cresent Girl's Symphony Band. i didnt want to at first cos it's 15. well he said it's considered cheap. but eventualy i went becos it's been ages since i visit Esplanade again. It's my first time into those theatre halls. So i was like a noob. The pieces CG played are syf pieces, one happy one normal, one grim and solemn. i like the grim and solemn piece. No, i'm not a gothic girl. But i thought they played much better than the happy piece. The happy wasnt.. happy but rather..no feelings put in i guess. it's their opening piece. Then they played ABBA's songs and some other songs, and den high school musical 2! haha! i like the music 'you are the music in me'. LOL! Then, charlie chaplin and one other guy's piece were done by the CG's Alumni Band. WOW. THey are much more powerful.
In the end, they end with a Bang of happy music, and as well as Shrek's Wedding Party music but it's remixed.... SO i get to listen to some music that were played by many bands, including my sec school's band , MHSS one... miss those days..
yeah, so although it's just a concert of a sec school, i am satisfied because of the music i am listening to. It sort of reconfirmed that me, learning music is ...correct? haha! and classical music makes me feel so 'refined' and so... composed and calmed. and HAPPY!
So what about the person i watched with? No, it's not the dream guy i'm with but with a friend that open wide my eyes. He's very kind to offer me other concerts when there is a chance. ofcourse, i'll be paying... he's a scrooge. haha! But the very least he knows how to appreciate music and that's what i like about him as a friend. Now this point makes me feel proud while im writing this entry. haha! becos i got a friend who's into classical music!! yay!
I am satisfied that i've got him as the 'musical' friend. and i'm satisfied by the kinds of friends i have! haha! i have the tattoo friends, the conservative friends, the open minded ones, the english speaking ones, the humourous ones, the smart ones, the rich one, the fun ones, the handsome ones, the pretty ones, the gossipy ones, the chinese speaking ones, the book reading ones---Esp the Twilight readers. LOL!
The studious ones, the artistic ones, the analytical ones, the com geek ones... etc..
I'm satisfied enough. :D
